We reviewed over forty-five large venue festivals that are looking to capture your dollars this summer, whether that’s for ticket sales or your corporate sponsorship. We have selected the following for our Big Venue Music Festival Bucket List for 2022. Other than by date, there is no particular order for these festivals as we believe they all offer amazing venues and spectacular artist line-ups as we get back to enjoying these outdoor events this summer. We are confident that you, our readers, will find that perfect festival that is just right for you, but we do recommend you do not take too long to decide as these events are selling out fast! CMA FEST 2022 When: June 9th – 12th, 2022 Where: Nashville, TN, United States Why: Well, if this was NASCAR, this event would be the Daytona 500 and it only seems right that is would happen in Music City to kick off the summer music festival season after a two-year hiatus. Like we said in the opening the festivals are not in any particular order, other than by date, so it is purely by coincidence that the festival at the top of our bucket list, would also be the first we put on our list for 2022. To be honest it would be easier to list who is not performing at this year’s CMA Fest than who is, as the who’s who of Country’s Music Artists take to the stage to kick off the largest event of the summer. CMA Fest features literally the A to Z of Country’s Music superstars with Jason Aldean, Kelsea Ballerini, Gabby Barrett, Dierks Bentley, Kane Brown, Luke Bryan, Luke Combs, Russell Dickerson, Alan Jackson, Lady A, Parker McCollum, Carly Pearce, Thomas Rhett, Darius Rucker, Cole Swindell, Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Lainey Wilson, Zac Brown Band all performing at Nissan Stadium over the 4-day event. Plus, at the Chevrolet Riverfront Stage, which is the epicenter of daytime music with Lauren Alaina, Jimmie Allen, Tenille Arts, Priscilla Block, Danielle Bradbery, Blanco Brown, Maddie & Tae, Scotty McCreery, Lainey Wilson plus 30 other must-see artists, featuring the newest faces and the legends of Country Music you know and love. The best part is it is completely FREE! Plus Four-day CMA Fest pass holders get early access at 9AM with music starting at 10am. Over 100 additional artists, including High Valley, MacKenzie Porter, The Reklaws and Jake Hoot on the Dr Pepper Amp Stage, Chevy Vibes Stage and the Maui Jim Reverb Stage. Their inaugural event in 2015 brought in over 20,000 attendees, and has grown every year, with their most recent edition in 2021 saw the addition of a fifth stage to accom - modate more artists and larger crowds, welcoming 35,000 music fans and festival goers to a SOLD-OUT festival. Showing that this is one festival that you need to strongly consider for your own bucket list. Ticket Prices:
Single Day Passes starting at: $82.00 USD Full Festival Passes starting at: $235.00 USD For more information on this event go to: https://cmafest.com/
