Over 20,000 expected at YQM Country Fest

Another big country concert is just a week away.

YQM Country Fest returns to Dieppe from August 24th to August 26 at the MusiqART site.

Promoter Sam Bourgeois says they’ve expanded the festival this year, “We didn’t know exactly what to expect last year, but it went extremely well both from an artist and a fan perspective. The feedback was very good from last year, and we made a couple of minor tweaks, which we have had a year to perfect. Other than that we are just ready to get going.”

This year’s show features artists including Keith Urban, Morgan Wallen and Thomas Rhett.

Bourgeois adds the concert site itself is very similar to last year, but a site plan is expected to be released in the coming days.

Gates open at 1 p.m. on August 24th.

Over 20,000 fans are expected at this year’s three-day event.

Bourgeois has plans to make YQM Country Fest an annual event in Dieppe. He hinted that he already has musical acts in the works for next year’s show, but he wouldn’t reveal who they are.

Tickets for this year’s show are still available online.
