2. Concerts for a Cause was
created in 2007 and has held
an annual marquee event, the
Concert for Epilepsy, which was
founded by Chad Barth in honor
of his sister who was only six
months old when her epileptic
seizures began.
WHAT IS CONCERTS FOR A CAUSE?
The concerts have honored her passion for music
and raised financial support for the important
work of improving the lives of those with epilepsy.
Concerts for a Cause is now expanding its horizons
with the hope of helping more Americans in need
of assistance. Together, we will have fun, celebrate
our patriotism and make a difference in the lives of
others.

3. Concerts for a Cause is taking
place at Jacobs Pavilion, an
open-air amphitheater (rivaling
the world-renowned Red
Rocks) along the Cuyahoga
River in downtown Cleveland,
and with this rock-and-roll city
as a backdrop, it is the can’t-
miss event hub of the 2016
Republican National Convention.

*Pending necessary approval from appropriate stakeholders.

5. The 2016 Republican National Convention is
shaping up to be one of the most watched,
highest intensity and riveting events in modern
American history. For one week in July, the eyes of
the world will focus on Cleveland and the party’s
selection of a nominee for President of the United
States.
In normal circumstances (2016 is far above
normal) the conventions are the largest media
event in the world, save the Olympics. They attract
nearly 100,000 attendees each, millions of viewers
and take over an entire city. This one will be even
larger.
