Valerie Empson
Assistant Festival Director
I have been working with SonRise going into the 7th year. I have volunteered and headed committees when involved in the military community and wanted to continue to help others. I am blessed to be a mother of 3 and grandmother of 4. I have loved music since I was little and although I grew up in an acapella church, I love all Christian music.
SonRise Family, There’s no easy way to say this. Due to the impending severe weather that is about to impact our region from future Tropical Storm Ophelia, including likely flooding, possible tornadoes, and more, we are heartbroken to share that despite exhausting all possible solutions, SonRise Music Festival 2023 has been canceled for the safety of our guests, volunteers, and artists. All tickets will be refunded in the coming days back to your original form of payment. We appreciate your patience as we navigate this process. Although devastated to share this news, we look forward to gathering together with you again soon. We love you SonRise family! Be on the lookout for news about upcoming events and more from SonRise before long!
We’re working on plans for a revamped and updated event in the future so be on the lookout for news about upcoming events and more from SonRise before long!
