FREE Smash Mouth Concert w/ Fireworks & 5k Giveaway August 1, 2009

Smash Mouth, famous for hits including “All Star,” “Can't Get Enough Of You Baby,” and a cover of The Monkees classic “I'm a Believer,” which was prominently featured on the “Shrek” soundtrack, helps launch the most exciting attraction to hit northern Nevada in decades – The Legends at Sparks Marina – with a free concert Aug. 1 followed by fireworks over the Biggest Little City’s sister city, Sparks and a $5,000 gift card giveaway. All three original members of the band are set to take the stage this Saturday at 8 p.m. with proceeds from the sale of VIP viewing passes going to benefit the Boys & Girls Club of Truckee Meadows. “Smash Mouth Saturday” helps kick off 10 days worth of free events and activities at The Legends including fashion shows, celebrity appearances, product demonstrations, sidewalk sales and $25,000 in giveaways.

The Legends stage is located on the north side of the center directly behind Nike Factory Store, adjacent to Olive Garden. Low-back chairs are permitted; however, tents and umbrellas are not allowed.

The Legends also hosts a denim drive from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Aug. 1, with the first 25 denim donors receiving a free pair of VIP passes. Other activities for the day include a free “Shrek-“themed photo booth, live music, and a Guitar Hero competition.
