With the help of Cargill, The Poultry Federation and Operation BBQ, the turkey fry at the Nashville Fairgrounds has expanded to feed more people in the community with 2,000 cooked turkeys – 400 more than last year – and 1,200 frozen turkeys distributed. For information regarding the event, sponsorships or volunteer opportunities, please email

The festivities will continue on into the night at Luke Combs' Category 10 for a benefit concert, with the lineup to be released soon. Last year, the concert raised $250,000 for the third year in a row for Mission:Possible, featuring performances by Lawrence, Russell Dickerson, Meghan Patrick, John Schneider and Halfway To Hazard. Past performers of the annual concert include Tim McGraw, Luke Combs, Chris Young, Lainey Wilson, Jason Aldean, Cole Swindell, Justin Moore, Dustin Lynch, Lee Brice and more.
Since its inception, Lawrence's Mission:Possible has fried over 10,000 turkeys, provided more than 86,000 meals to the homeless across Middle Tennessee, donated over $1M to Nashville Rescue Mission and raised over $2.5M, which helps to further its goals, advocate for those in need and expand their ability to support aligned causes.
