July 2023 – For the 9th year in a row, Faster Horses has taken over the Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Michigan, to put on their three-day country music festival. Camping, dancing, and singing are the three main staples of this music-filled weekend! This year, more than 40,000 people attended and enjoyed a star-studded lineup.
Shania Twain, Luke Bryant and Zac Brown headlined the festival filled with over 30 Country Performers during the 3 day event.
We are proud to have partnered with Faster Horses for our 5th year as the on-site shuttle provider for daily transportation to and from the campgrounds and the festival. Our Trinity On-Site Supervisor stated “The three-day Faster Horses event was another success this year! Transporting thousands of passengers between various on-site locations, our drivers did an excellent job. We were delighted to be a part of the festival again and look forward to continuing this partnership.” Each year, our drivers enjoy meeting new riders and ensuring everyone gets to their destination safely and on time!
