The third edition of Lasso Montréal is set to take place in August 2024 — and will be headlined by Eric Church and Sam Hunt, organizers have just announced. Church and Hunt are two of country music’s most celebrated artists, and they’ll be taking the stage at one of the biggest country parties north of Nashville next summer, with tickets going on sale this week.
Fans can gather at Church’s altar on Friday Aug. 16 when he brings his massive show — along with a wide array of big hits and surprises — to Parc Jean-Drapeau. Known affectionately as The Chief (due to his ubiquitous shades and his grandpappy’s former position as police chief of his hometown), Church is one of country music’s most enduring stars, and his electrifying live shows have made his country revival movement something that needs to be experienced to be believed. With multiple hits under his belt, the country megastar has won multiple awards, Grammy nominations, an AMA for Favorite Country Album for The Outsiders, and was even honoured with a CMT Artist of the Year Award.
Georgia-born singer Hunt — who headlines on Saturday Aug. 17 — became one of the brightest stars on the scene with his debut album Montevalle. Platinum hits like Leave the Night On, House Party, Take Your Time and Make You Miss Me have contributed to Hunt’s 12 billion global streams. Before embarking on his music career, Hunt was an accomplished athlete with a bright future in football. Songwriting quickly became a strong passion, and he began writing hits for such legends as Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban and Reba McEntire, making a name for himself. Hunt’s musical style is very much big-tent country with plenty of pop and R&B influences, making him one of the most accessible artists in the genre.
Stay tuned for more acts to be announced early in the new year. General admission two-day tickets for Lasso Montréal 2024 start at $240 (including taxes and fees) at www.lassomontreal.com., with Gold Tickets starting at $450.
