The Better Man Event, now in its 16th year, is bringing Mariano Rivera, Lecrae, Rev. Sammy Rodriguez and Jonnie W. to the Silver Spurs Arena at Osceola Heritage Park in Kissimmee, Saturday, May 16.

The event will have a pre-event tailgate party that will feature a five-man stunt motorbike show included in the price of admission.

“We are so excited for the 2020 event at Silver Spurs Arena and these amazing men who have agreed to join us on stage to equip, encourage and engage us with what it truly means to be better – better husbands, fathers, sons, friends and co-workers,” said Brian Buckley, founder and CEO of the Better Man Event. “It’s a dream team of a speaker and performer line up and our theme for this year is that as men we are truly “Better Together.” Every guy needs other men in their lives encouraging them and pointing them towards Jesus who by His power enables us to be better.”

The list of 2020 Better Man Event speakers are:

• Mariano Rivera – Hall of Fame for the New York Yankees

• Lecrae – Grammy Award-winning Hip-Hop Artist

• Rev. Sammy Rodriguez – pastor, author, movie producer

• Jonnie W. – comedian, joke teller music maker

“God is moving in the hearts of men of all ages in Central Florida and across the country in a way we’ve never seen. Our organization will respond by faith and be ready to scale future gatherings for growth,” said Buckley. “Men are hungry for real community and to spend time together laughing, celebrating, and even getting emotional and engaging in what it means to be better in every area of our lives is a very good thing. This is why we will be doing these annual events for many more years to come.”
