Fort Wainwright hosts first summer concert in two years

Fort Wainwright kicked off summer in a big way Saturday with its first summer concert since before the pandemic. Rapper Chris “Ludacris” Bridges and country star Brantley Gilbert performed outdoors for a crowd of approximately 3,000 military members and their friends and family. Tickets sold out in approximately four hours after going on sale about a month ago. As a Covid mitigation measure, tickets were sold in “pods” of six, with blocks marked out on the grassy field for each pod that concertgoers were asked to stay in when not getting food or using the restroom. For this big event, “the biggest portable stage ever to be used in Alaska,” according to Maj. Gen. Peter Andrysiak, commanding general of US Army Alaska, made its way to Alaska. It took several days before and after the concert to set it up and take it back down, with the tear-down crew having to pause for lightning on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon.
