Country Summer presented by Bud Light, Northern California’s biggest country music festival, has announced a partnership with Country Music Television (CMT) as festival organizers prepare for the show, returning to the Sonoma County Event Center at the Fairgrounds June 14-16.
CMT’s video and digital crew will attend all three days of the festival, catching the performances and excitement for a special episode of CMT Hot 20 Countdown, as well as broadcasting to their social audience. CMT Hot Twenty Countdown host and Country Music Association Award Winner, Cody Alan, will also join the festival, conducting interviews and making announcements from the stage.
“CMT Hot20’s tradition of getting fans up close to their favorite country stars continues at Country Summer Fest” said Alan. “I can’t wait to get out to Santa Rosa and bring our CMT crew along to catch all the action. We are thrilled to start this new partnership with our friends at Country Summer and we hope you will join us alongside Little Big Town, Jordan Davis, Old Dominion and so many other superstars next week!”
This year’s festival marks the tenth anniversary of the inaugural Country Summer show with a new look, the return of on-site festival camping, and a superstar lineup of 24 nationally-recognized performers scheduled for the show. In addition to the music, guests can expect extensive options for craft food and beverages, VIP areas, games and activities.
“We are so excited about this year’s festival and our partnership with CMT,” Drew Jacoby, Executive Producer for Country Summer, said. “We know fans are in for a truly memorable 10th anniversary show. We have also made the decision not to increase ticket prices in the weeks leading up to the festival, in hopes that fans are able to attend even as prices rise in many areas of everyday life.”
