About Country Thunder Saskatchewan 2027

Country Thunder Saskatchewan 2027 runs Thursday July 8 to Sunday July 11 on the festival grounds at Craven, in the Qu'Appelle Valley about half an hour north of Regina. The lineup came out on October 30: Brayden King on the Thursday kickoff, then Jon Pardi headlining Friday, Collective Soul Saturday and Megan Moroney Sunday, with Lonestar, Blue Rodeo and Kameron Marlowe next down the bill and Saskatchewan's own Jess Moskaluke among the twenty acts. Tickets and camping are already selling: campsites and reserved seats went on public sale at 10am on July 31, 2026, once the on-site renewal window closed, and weekend general admission is on sale now.

The festival is older than the brand on it. Craven has held a country weekend since 1983, when it started as the Big Valley Jamboree with Roy Orbison on the first bill. It ran as the Craven Country Jamboree from 2005 under promoter Troy Vollhoffer, and joined Country Thunder's circuit in 2016, the first edition under that name arriving in 2017 with Blake Shelton, Toby Keith and Keith Urban. The shape has stayed put through all of it: one main stage, four nights, a headliner a night, and a campground that most of the crowd treats as the actual event.

July 2026 is the guide to what 2027 will look like. Lainey Wilson, Creed and Riley Green took the headline nights on a bill of about fifteen acts, with Regina's own The Dead South, Gavin Adcock, Cameron Whitecomb, Max McNown, Dasha and Noeline Hofmann underneath. Creed on a country bill is the sort of swing Craven has started taking. That lineup was announced in November, eight months before the gates opened, which is the pattern to expect here.

Expect country, rock, country rock and neotraditional country across 20 acts.
