After a 2 year stint in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, Bayou Country Superfest returns to Tiger Stadium for its tenth anniversary over Memorial Day weekend. Festival Producer Quint Davis said this year’s lineup for the 2-day festival is the best yet and is expected to draw fans from across North America.
“Kenny Chesney, Florida Georgia Line, Jason Aldean, Dan + Shay, Brett Young, Cassadee Pope, and Chase Rice,” said Davis as he listed the lineup.
Goveror Edwards was on hand for the announcement of the lineup and said his calendar is marked for the festival.
“Look it’s a really simple thing for me. I love country music, so I can get behind this thing, 100%,” said the Governor.
Edwards added his favorite on the lineup is Kenny Chesney, who will be closing out Saturday night.
Lt. Governor Billy Nungesser says the festival has a huge economic impact on the area by filling hotels and restaurants and says it’s important for locals to get the word out to friends and family across the nation.
“Everybody, help us sell tickets, get the word out, we want to sell out this weekend in Baton Rouge,” said Nungesser.
Tickets go on sale February 21.
