VALDOSTA – Wild Adventures Theme Park has announced that Southern rock pioneers Molly Hatchet will perform Saturday, April 26, as part of the 2025 Wild Adventures LIVE! Concert Series. The band steps in following the cancellation of The Marshall  Tucker Band’s performance due to an unforeseen medical event. 

“Our thoughts remain with The Marshall Tucker Band and their families,” said Adam Floyd, director of sales and marketing at Wild Adventures. “We’re grateful to Molly Hatchet for stepping up to ensure the show goes on, and we know our guests are going to love  this high-energy performance.” 

Emerging from Jacksonville, Florida, in the 1970s, Molly Hatchet helped define Southern rock by fusing blues, gospel, and hard-driving rock and roll. With hits like “Flirtin’ with Disaster,” “Gator Country,” and “Whiskey Man,” the band gained a reputation for relentless touring and unforgettable live shows. Over four decades later, Molly Hatchet continues to perform worldwide, keeping their Southern rock legacy alive with the same intensity and grit that made them legends, Wild Adventures said in announcing the schedule change.

Those who prefer a refund may request one by  calling Guest Services at (229) 219-7080 no later than Saturday, April 26.
