The Enthusiast Network announced today that their summer skateboard Dew Tour competition and festival will be hosting an all hip-hop concert on Saturday night, July 23

at the Terrace Theatre in the Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center. Taking center stage will be New York rapper Action Bronson to headline the concert. Also

performing that night will be Atlanta-based hip hop artist and rising star Kelechi. A third act will be announced at a later time. In addition to the music, the Dew

Tour will host a FREE three-day weekend celebration of skateboarding in Long Beach July 22 - 24 featuring an exciting new course and team competition as well as an

individual competition, TRANSWORLD SKATEBOARDING's Shop Showdown, an innovative tech zone, sponsor village and a public skate park. See the full schedule here. Tickets

for Saturday's concert are now available to purchase at http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0B0050D6A2AF29CF

Known for his wild on-stage antics and unique culinary background that he incorporates into his music and on his Viceland show, F*ck That's Delicious, Action Bronson

is a great fit for the Dew Tour, an action sports competition and content platform designed to celebrate style, creativity and progression.

Nigerian-American rapper, Kelechi, winner of the Mtn Dew Green Label Sound: Open Call competition who has been deemed by music media as a "2016 artist to watch" will

be opening the show. Tackling social topics in his lyrics, he blends percussion and melodies of his parent's homeland with the hard-hitting drums and harmonies of

Atlanta's fundamental rap sound. His sound is unique while maintaining the catchiness of your favorite southern spitter.

For fans looking for the ultimate experience at this summer's Dew Tour, tickets for the VIP experience are now on-sale here. VIP passes will give guests access to

exclusive viewing areas that will get them up-close to all of the action, athletes and reimagined course, as well as access to all film screenings, the Saturday night
