Last year the Southern Rock icons announced that after a career that has spanned more than 40 years and includes a catalog of more than 60 albums with more than 30 million units sold, they would embark on their "Last Of The Street Survivors Farewell Tour". Produced by Live Nation, the farewell tour logged over 50 stops by the end of 2018 and has continued throughout 2019 taking the band across the country and around the globe giving fans one last unforgettable night of classic American rock and roll.
"This cinema event showcases one of America's greatest rock bands in an iconic final performance," said Meteor 17 CEO Spencer Proffer. "I'm excited to collaborate with my partners at Fathom and Vector to bring this milestone concert to LYNYRD SKYNYRD fans around the world."
"Having the band come home, one last time to Jacksonville and in front of 50,000 fans, was an incredible night," said Ross Schilling of Vector Management. "Those iconic songs and music prove once again that SKYNYRD is one of the greatest American rock and roll bands of all time."
"We're thrilled to bring one of America's most iconic bands to movie theaters across the country and give their many fans an opportunity to come together and enjoy one of their final performances," said Fathom Events CEO Ray Nutt. "This is a historic moment in music, and we are excited to collaborate with Meteor 17 and Vector to once again bring a momentous music performance to a worldwide audience."
