The event will be staged at the historic Palace Theatre, home of Main Street Live (formerly Grapevine Opry Show) and the Penny Gilley Show, seen on RFD-TV. 

“We want to create more awareness to help aid early detection of ovarian cancer and find a cure. We’re excited to have the venue be Grapevine’s Palace Theater, with its strong heritage of country music.”

The National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC), in Dallas, will receive a portion of the proceeds from the concert.
