This lineup is stacked!
The iHeartCountry Festival is back with brand new plans!

Though fans can party in person, they will be treated to a day of music from some of country’s biggest stars.
Appearing for this year’s lineup on October 23 at 7p CT will be Dierks Bentley, Lady A, Sam Hunt, Kane Brown, Kelsea Ballerini, Dustin Lynch, Jon Pardi, Riley Green, special performances by Morgan Evans and Gabby Barrett and guest appearance by Bobby Bones.
