The gates for Dauphin's Countryfest are set to open in just over a week. Weekend passes are still available for $279 or you can also pick up your day passes.
"Ticket sales are pretty brisk right now. A lot of people were waiting for the last minute and the nicer weather which we're having right now," said Rod Waloschuk, General Manager. "Having some rain as well has put people back into the spirit of having a good time next week."
To kick off the festival, we will be hosting the 730CKDM Countryfest Kick-off party featuring the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. Tickets for that is just $30. Day passes for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are $99.
On top of the party, Thursday will also include something else special.
"You can also expect some sort of a cake cutting ceremony. It's going to be a great celebration," added Waloschuk.
Old Dominion will be the headliner on Friday starting at 10:30 p.m. Jason Aldean headlines on Saturday at 10:00 p.m. while Toby Keith headlines on Sunday starting at 9:30 p.m.
"We've got so much for everybody. Starting on Friday with the new country acts and it doesn't really get any bigger in country music than Jason Aldean right now," said Waloschuk. "On Sunday with the whole birthday bash and bringing back a lot of the 90's artists when Dauphin's Countryfest just started. A lot of people are saying Sunday is the best day and it's reflected with the ticket sales."
