LEADERS FARMS AND 35+ FARMS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA PAY TRIBUTE TO LUKE BRYAN WITH CORN MAZES HONORING THE COUNTRY MUSIC SUPERSTAR
Napoleon, Ohio – August 2024 - In celebration of his 15th annual Farm Tour kicking off in September, Leaders Farms is preparing to open a country music corn maze honoring five-time Entertainer of the Year Luke Bryan. The 6.5 maze is scheduled to open September 20th.
While navigating the maze, guests will look for clues and play an interactive game quizzing them on how much they know about the country music artist. Participants will enjoy Luke-themed photo opps, music and farm fun along the way.
Leaders Farms is one of 35+ farms featuring Luke in their corn maze this year. Collectively, the farms—which are designed by The MAiZE Inc. in 21 states or provinces across the U.S. and Canada—will reach up to a million visitors during the fall season.
“Having grown up farming in south Georgia and celebrating agriculture for the last 15 years on my Farm Tour, I’m honored that so many members of the farming community have chosen me to feature in their corn mazes across the country,” said Bryan. “I can’t wait to see how they turn out.”
While getting lost at each farm, guests will have the opportunity to listen to recorded audio messages, play an interactive game answering Luke-themed trivia questions and take pictures with life-size photo opps.
“This is a fun time to be working with Luke, as he hits the road for his annual farm concert tour and we’re excited to honor him in so many of our maze designs this year,” said Brett Herbst, founder of The MAiZE Inc. “Our mazes are all about bringing people out to the farm and providing good, clean family fun, and we know those things are just as important to Luke.”
Along with the corn maze, guests will also enjoy hayrides, racin’ pigs, jumping pillows, and Big Jack the Pumpkin Cannon when they visit the farm. Leaders Farms will operate from September 20th to October 27th. For more information, visit www.leadersfarms.com
