"Chevrolet Live will support a series of high profile events around the region in coming months. We believe in getting up close and personal with our customers - events like the Creek Park and Destiny's Child concerts help demonstrate what the Chevrolet brand stands for - fun and excitement, design and innovation, safety and strength, power and performance."
