I can't think of a better way to officially kick off summer 2020 than spending a weekend on the Jersey shore enjoying some of our favorite Hudson Valley country artists singing away, LIVE!

The Barefoot Country Music Fest is taking over the beach in Wildwood New Jersey starting Friday June 19th through the first official day of summer, June 21st and if the first headliner is any indication of what we can expect, this is going to be huge.

Carrie Underwood has been announced as the first big name to take the stage at the first ever Barefoot Country Music Fest and they are promising 30, yes THIRTY plus of country music hottest artists.

According to their website they will be announcing more names soon with general admission tickets and VIP passes going on sale this Friday, January 10 at 10 a.m. GA passes for all three days start at $149, with VIP tickets starting at $279. You can buy them here starting Friday morning.
