FestivalCountry Rising Festival Winnipeg 2026

Country Rising is a one-day festival spotlighting the artists who are redefining country music right now. This isn’t boots-and-ballads — it’s the country-cool movement: 808 beats tangled with steel guitars, high-tops next to cowboy boots, chains layered over flannels, and a sound that hits every corner of today’s culture.

Set outdoors under open sky, the experience blends high-energy live performances with line dancing, elevated local food & drink, interactive games, and bold, photo-worthy moments built for social sharing. It’s immersive. It’s modern. It’s the new version of country — and it delivers an all-day party fans will remember long after the headliner walks off stage.
