YQM Country Fest 2025 Announced: Headliners Revealed
Country music enthusiasts eagerly anticipating the lineup for the YQM Country Fest 2025 have now received the official announcement of the headlining acts. The annual festival, which will take place from August 21 to 23, 2025, at the MusiquART site in Dieppe, will feature some of the genre’s biggest names, including Jelly Roll, Luke Bryan, and Kane Brown.
Promoter Sam Bourgeois confirmed the details earlier this week, expressing excitement over the upcoming festival. “It’s been a long time coming. We’ve been working on Jelly Roll for almost a year now. He just did his first few shows in Canada over the summer. We are extremely excited to have him for the first time in Atlantic Canada,” Bourgeois stated.
The lineup includes Jelly Roll, who will perform on Friday, Luke Bryan on Saturday, and Kane Brown kicking off the event on Thursday. Additionally, Jon Pardi is scheduled to open on Thursday, with Dylan Scott taking the stage on Saturday.
Tickets for the event are now available for purchase online, with weekend passes priced at $399 plus taxes and fees. According to Bourgeois, the decision on whether single-day passes will be offered is still pending and will be decided closer to the festival date.
Bourgeois highlighted the anticipation surrounding the event, saying, “I think we went above and beyond and got a good variety, a little bit of something for everyone. We have a lot more strong acts we are announcing between now and Christmas.” He also noted that Jelly Roll was the number one requested act this year and is expected to draw large crowds.
The MusiquART site, which can accommodate between 3,000 to 20,000 attendees, has been secured by YQM Country Fest through a long-term agreement with the City of Dieppe. This ensures the festival’s continuity at this location for the foreseeable future. Additional acts will be announced in the coming months, as festival organizers finalize the lineup.
