August 6-9

PRO AM JAM: BIRDIES, BANDS, AND BIG TIME FUN

Crank the volume to 11, grab your clubs and a cold drink, and get ready to rock at Pro Am Jam.

It’s more than a golf tournament. It’s more than a private concert. First Dakota Pro Am Jam is a multi-day extravaganza of friendly competition on the links, the hottest concerts in town, and fun from sun up to sun down—all on the scenic grounds of the Country Club of Sioux Falls.

Best of all—proceeds benefit the South Dakota Community Foundation, a non-profit organization that supports communities across the state with grants, administrative support, and other resources.

Whether you’re swinging clubs on the fairways or swaying to the music in the intimate concert venue with a drink in your hand, everyone has a blast at PAJ. There’s nothing else quite like it, and we like it that way.

See concert line up below.

Matchbox Twenty

9:15 PM

Matchbox Twenty have quietly woven their songs into the very fabric of American popular culture. No matter where you are, it’s impossible not to hum along, or even sing aloud, to generational anthems like “3AM,” “Push,” “Unwell,” “Bent,” “If You’re Gone,” or “She’s So Mean.” Earning hits in each of the last three decades, the 90s, the 00s, and the 10s, they’ve gone from dominating radio airwaves and ruling MTV to piling up billions of streams, underscoring the enduring appeal of their music. As such, they’ve sold over 40 million records worldwide, topped charts, garnered multiple GRAMMY® Award nominations, and played to millions of fans across arenas, amphitheaters, and stadiums on multiple continents. In 2023, the band, Rob Thomas, Brian Yale, Paul Doucette, and Kyle Cook, released their first album in 11 years and fifth overall LP, Where The Light Goes, once again delivering a collection of real, relevant, and relatable songs recorded with GRAMMY® Award-nominated producer Gregg Wattenberg.

Sugar Ray

7:30PM

Beyond sales of 10 million records, four top 10 songs, over a billion streams, and millions of tickets sold, Sugar Ray—co-founded by Mark McGrath [vocals] and Rodney Sheppard [lead guitar]—embody the endless summer of popular music and culture. How many artists still pack amphitheaters a whole generation removed from their genesis? How many acts can claim sharing the stage with The Rolling Stones, KISS, and Sex Pistols, collaborating with Run-DMC, and being interpolated by Post Malone? Just Sugar Ray…

Nelly

9:15PM

For 24 years, Nelly has been connecting generations with his exuberant anthems, fusing musical genres, and engaging in multiple entertainment mediums including music, television, and film. The diamond selling, multi-platinum, 3x Grammy award-winning rap superstar, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and actor, Nelly, has continuously raised the bar for the entertainment industry since stepping on the scene in 2000 with his distinctive vocals and larger-than-life personality.

Nelly strives to be a trailblazer and to be the first to make his mark in every category such as being the first hip hop artist to blur the musical genres of Hip Hop and Country with the chart-topping hit Over and Over with Tim McGraw. He continues to set records with sold-out tours and appearances across the globe. His newest “first” is his own brand of moonshine, aptly named “MoShine” using the star’s well-known nickname “Mo” in the name, which he just launched in April.
