The 2014 Calgary Stampede will have country music fans, and temporary country music fans, flocking to one of the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth’s most popular free concert venues at its new home on the Stampede grounds.

The Nashville North tent will be pulling up its stakes and moving away from the Grandstand building. The new location will be at the north end of Stampede Park between Cowboys Casino and the park’s Olympic Way entrance.

Once visitors find their way to the new venue, they’ll be entertained by performances from some of the biggest names in Canadian country music as well as an iconic American act that’s been performing for nearly half a century.
