Rumors began circulating this weekend about a huge show coming to the Atlantic City Beach this summer.  This morning, those rumors were confirmed with the official announcement that Maroon 5 will be performing on Sunday, August 16th.  

This concert on the beach will be the third of its kind in recent memory in Atlantic City, with Lady Antebellum and Blake Shelton most recently performing for more than 120,000 fans over a weekend last summer.

Atlantic City is abuzz about this latest announcement and according to Casino Reinvestment Development Authority Executive Director John Palmieri “What could be more exciting for tens of thousands of concert goers than a once-in-a-lifetime concert experience by the sea and Boardwalk. It will be spectacular night of entertainment and a major economic boost for the city.”

Maroon 5 will be joined by special guests Nick Jonas and 'The Voice' runner up & Southern Regional High School graduate Matt McAndrew.  For more information, visit Atlantic City Alliance.
