There's a new country music festival coming in 2020, with the announcement that LASSO is coming to Montreal's Parc Jean-Drapeau on August 14 and 15.
The first year festival boasts stages with leading-edge sound and lights to go along with beautiful views of Montreal in the background. They also promise fantastic food and fun activities for festival-goers. And when it comes to the music, they are offering fans "more hot country than they can shake a stick at."
That hot country starts with the announcement of their first headliner, Luke Bryan!
The country music hit maker will take the stage in Montreal as the headliner he is, and if our experience watching him perform to festival crowds is any indication, it's going to be a lot of fun for everyone at LASSO.
Check out these photos from Luke Bryan's headlining appearance at Boots & Hearts 2017.

LASSO will also offer Gold passes that include festival access for August 14 and 15, with entry onto the Terrace viewing area (with bar service), private washrooms, and an exclusive entrance onto the festival site. Pricing for Gold passes is not yet available online.
The LASSO website tells us that the full festival lineup will be announced in early 2020. And while we don't have any specific predictions, we will be very surprised if breakout Canadian country artist and Maniwaki, QC native, Matt Lang isn't included on the lineup.
There's still a lot to learn about LASSO, but the excitement is real. And we can't wait to learn more about who will be performing at Parc Jean-Drapeau on August 14 and 15, 2020.
Stay tuned!
