Organizers from the Academy of Country Music, alongside survivors in attendance, say that events like these help them cope with the tragedy.
"We hope that folks, as difficult as the situation [is] that they've been through, that they're now seeing that life can move on," said Pete Fisher from the Academy of Country Music.
"It shows how united we are and how we aren't going to let evil control us," added 1 October survivor Shawna Bartlett.
The event was organized by Nathan Adelson Hospice, which is the largest nonprofit hospice organization in the valley.
More than 900 butterflies were released at the event.
