We have said this before and we will say it time and time again, before going to any festival you need to find the one that is right for you, know all the costs and what is and what is not included. The prices that we have shown are for tickets only as many will have additional costs for parking, camping or shuttles so be aware of this before filling out your bucket list and heading out to any festivals, so you do not have any unwanted sur- prises. As you can see there are many amazing festi- vals to choose from, we did our selection from over 55 that are happening on both sides of the border this summer, so do your own research, so you don’t end up somewhere you don’t enjoy. Remember the atmosphere and festival venue are just as important if not more than a spectac- ular line-up of artists. When attending the festival on your bucket list this summer, remember to tag us on social media (Twitter @spotlightbizmag / Facebook @spot- lightbizmag / Instagram @spotlightonbizmag) so that we can share your experience with our readers.
country music fans after the success of the inaugural YQM Country Fest as 25,000 festivalgoers look to herd to the MusiquArt site venue which is directly in the heart of the City of Dieppe, New Brunswick for their sophomore year. Obviously, there were a couple of minor hiccups for the festival in their inaugural years and a couple of issues going into their sophomore year, but when speaking with county music fans and festival goers they were very pleased and excited as they looked forward to this year’s YQM Country Fest. Last year’s YQM Countryfest saw headliners Blake Shelton and Florida Georgia. Fans were thrilled with a surprise appearance by Gwen Stefani who took to the stage with her husband Blake Shelton on Saturday night along with Brett Young, Jordan Davis, Scott McCreery and five other supporting artists that took to the stage over the two days of the festival to the delight of festivalgoers and putting them on the radar for our Big Venue Music Festival Bucket List for 2023. YQM Countryfest’s sophomore year sees Country Music Superstars Morgan Wallen, Keith Urban and Thomas Rhett headlining the stage each of the three nights of the festival. They will be joined by Ernest, Dustin Lynch, Cole Swindell, Gabby Barrett, Eli Young Band, The Washboard Union, and Canadian Country artists Brett Kissel, and MacKenzie Porter along with other amazing local and international artists getting the crowds ready for what should be an amazing three night of the best performances in country music today. As for most of these festivals, fans you are able to bring your own chair, and one sealed
one-litre bottle of water, but don’t worry there are a number of food vendors on-site during the festival to keep you fed and hydrated. Plus, the event is located in the heart of the City of Dieppe, just outside of Moncton, New Brunswick which makes it the perfect location for festival goers that are looking for accommo- dation during the three days of the event, plus easy access in and out of the MusiquArt site venue. With these high-demand artists, we are confi - dent that this is a festival that needs to be on everyone’s bucket list as the supporting artists would be considered headliners for other festi- vals across North America and things are only getting started for this festival and we can’t of a better way to end our summer and bucket list for 2023.
