Last Sunday, CMT and Dairy Queen partnered together to bring a day of music, family fun, and sweet frozen treats to Nashville’s Cumberland Park in downtown.
It was a beautiful, sunny day, albeit a little chilly, but that did not stop the capacity crowd of 1,500 from enjoying the inaugural CMT Sweetest Summer Celebration presented by Dairy Queen that was a pre-summer fun celebration of music & the official launch of Dairy Queen’s new summer Blizzard menu starting the month of April.
Check out photos & video clips from the day below on Instagram from Lauren Alaina, Walker Hayes, and as we talked with the folks at CMT & Dairy Queen!
Some of country music’s rising and established stars entertained the crowd from the Cumberland Park stage overlooking the riverfront, including Maddie & Tae, Josh Turner, Walker Hayes, and Lauren Alaina.
While listening to some great, live music, attendees got a chance to taste some of Dairy Queen’s new blizzard flavors for the summer and nibble on some of their chicken fingers & fries while enjoying cornhole, making silkscreen t-shirts, and playing a jumbo Jinga game.
Debuting this month at Dairy Queen is the Oreo Cookie Jar Blizzard featuring Oreo cookie pieces, chocolate chip cookie dough, and fudge mixed into Dairy Queen’s signature vanilla soft serve.
The 2019 Summer Blizzard Menu also includes:
– Brownie Dough Blizzard – Brownie dough, choco chunks, and cocoa fudge blended with vanilla soft serve.
– Summer Berry Cheesecake Blizzard – Raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and cheesecake pieces blended with vanilla soft serve.
– Caramel Cannonball Blizzard – Caramel-coated caramel truffles, toffee pieces, and caramel topping mixed with vanilla soft serve.
– S’mores Blizzard – Marshmallow-filled chocolates and graham cracker pieces blended with vanilla soft serve.
