NASHVILLE, TN AND LAMPE, MO / ACCESS Newswire / May 22, 2026 / American Rebel Light Beer, the all-natural premium domestic light lager from American Rebel Holdings, Inc (OTC:AREB), will be front and center at Black Oak Amphitheater this Memorial Day weekend as the brand becomes the Official Beer of Black Oak Amphitheater for a high-energy live-music showcase featuring multi-platinum country-rock superstars Brantley Gilbert and Aaron Lewis, newcomer Payton Smith, and American Rebel CEO, founder and recording artist Andy Ross.
A Memorial Day Weekend Patriotic Celebration in the Ozarks
The concert takes place on Sunday, May 24, at the historic Black Oak Amphitheater in Lampe, Missouri. Fans are encouraged to arrive early when doors open at 5:30 p.m. to catch Andy Ross's opening set at 6:30 p.m., grab a cold American Rebel Light, and help launch a patriotic summer concert season in the Ozarks.
Positioned near Table Rock Lake, Black Oak Amphitheater is Missouri's premier outdoor concert venue and invites fans to get the party started in the courtyard with pre-show live music, drinks and games. That setting gives American Rebel Light Beer a natural stage to activate before the headliners, welcome fans early, and turn Memorial Day weekend into a full-throttle celebration of music, freedom and American pride.

"Sharing the stage with two absolute powerhouses like Brantley Gilbert and Aaron Lewis is an incredible honor and the perfect way to kick off the summer," said Andy Ross. "But what makes this night even more special is seeing American Rebel Light in the hands of the fans. Black Oak Amphitheater is a legendary venue right in the heart of the country, and we couldn't think of a better home for our beer. We're ready to rock the Ozarks, put a can in our hand, and raise a Rebel Light with the crowd."
American Rebel Light Beer Takes Center Stage at Black Oak Amphitheater
American Rebel Light will power a full venue activation built around 16 oz Tall Boys, live music, and on-premise visibility at one of Missouri's premier outdoor concert venues. Patriotic fans are invited to arrive early, catch Ross perform "Hold My Beer," raise a 16 oz Tall Boy, and be part of an all-American live-music and video-capture moment in the Ozarks.
The event aligns American Rebel Light with Black Oak Amphitheater - the leading and premier outdoor patriotic concert venue in the Ozarks - creating a high-energy, values-driven environment that reflects the brand's commitment to freedom, music and American patriotism.
Black Oak Amp + Rebel Light Beer - More Than a Sponsorship: A Full Fan-Experience Activation
For American Rebel, the Black Oak sponsorship is designed to do more than place logos on signs. It gives the company a visible on-premise stage in an expanding Missouri market, reinforces its distribution-first growth strategy, and creates a branded environment where fans can taste, carry, photograph and share American Rebel Light in a live setting aligned with the brand's values.
American Rebel's Missouri footprint is expanding through distributor relationships that include Gray Eagle and Wil Fischer, while the company's Missouri rollout has tied Black Oak to regional reach opportunities.
"Our partnership with Andy and American Rebel products is nothing short of spectacular," said Tom Abbett, General Manager of Black Oak Amphitheater. "Aware of the brand through its NHRA affiliation, the first chance I had to sample an American Rebel Light beer was at Tootsies on Lower Broadway in Nashville, and that led me to send a picture of the can to our concessionaire and business partner, Shawn, with the caption, 'I've found our beer!' From there, we reached out to the brand and were able to quickly strike up a partnership and get distribution here in Missouri for our live music venue, which will now have Andy Ross and the band performing on our main stage to really kick off the selling and concert season. We are certainly ready to 'Rebel Up' here at Black Oak Amphitheater."
Capturing the Moment for Fans, Retailers and Distributors
American Rebel will also capture photo and video content during the event weekend, filming patriotic legal-drinking-age fans enjoying great music, celebrating America, and raising American Rebel Light together under the Ozark sky. That owned content is intended enhance the American Rebel Light Beer branding and to extend the Black Oak activation beyond the event itself across digital, social, retail, distributor and investor communications.
"This is the kind of activation that matters because it puts the product directly in the hands of fans in a high-energy environment, creates strong on-premise visibility, and gives our distributors and retail partners another live example of how the American Rebel brand performs when music, patriotism and product all come together," said Todd Porter, President of American Rebel Beverages.
