Nashville North returns, bigger and better, July 2–12 in Calgary’s original Stampede party tent. With more than 100 acts across four stages, the Stampede is set to once again deliver The Greatest Music Festival in the West, all included with admission to Stampede Park. Delivering ten plus days of non‑stop country where the music never quits and the energy stays high from the first chord to the last, Nashville North is Calgary’s ultimate spot for the best mix of live country music, where guests can go from rodeo to rowdy without leaving Stampede Park. “Nashville North continues to be the heart of the city’s best live country music,” said Meghan Kivisto, Vice-President, Marketing, Sales and Programming, Calgary Stampede. “With a bigger tent, bigger artists and the best party vibes, it’s time to celebrate like you only can at The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth.” Sneak-a-Peek on Thursday, July 2 will kick off the Nashville North schedule with the Bud Light Buckle Up Tour stop headlined by Josh Ross, the 2025 JUNO Award winner for Country Album of the Year for his EP Complicated. The lineup also features award-winning and chart-topping artists including Bailey Zimmerman, Russell Dickerson, Chris Young and Hudson Westbrook alongside fan favourites and emerging talent. From artists on the rise to chart‑topping headliners, Nashville North brings together the full spectrum of country talent
