JAM-PACKED. Fans will have a lot to smile about now that the Country Jam lineup for 2024 has been announced.

The Chippewa Valley’s summer festival season may have faded into the rearview mirror, but for optimistic music fans that just means that lineup announcement season has arrived. 

On Tuesday morning, Eau Claire’s own Country Jam USA announced the lineup for its 34th annual bash, which is planned for July 18-20, 2024, at the new Eau Claire Events District, which hosted its first Country Jam last summer. 

HARDY and Brothers Osborne will join the previously announced Thomas Rhett as headliners of the three-day festival. HARDY and Brothers Osborne will close out the festival on Thursday and Friday nights, respectively, while Rhett will be the final act on Saturday.

Here are some more details from Tuesday’s announcement:

2024 will be the second year at the event’s new home, Eau Claire Event District, which includes over 1,000 onsite campsites directly adjacent to the festival site, permanent, year-round buildings including High Country and The Crescent and, of course, no more “hill.”

“2024 is going to be epic,” said Kathy Wright, Country Jam Festival Director, “We have an exciting lineup and have made some great adjustments to our new facility to better serve our guests.” Country Jam’s 2024 confirmed performers include Country Music’s newest hitmakers along with many fan favorites. “Each year we try to cultivate a line-up that has a mix of the hottest up-and-coming acts, major headliners, and few acts that are unexpected.” said Wright. Festival favorites Blackhawk, Ian Munsick, Chris Cagle, Parmalee and The Frontmen will join first time Jam performances by Ernest, Shane Smith & The Saints, Jackson Dean, Ella Langley, Drew Parker, Aidan Canfield, with more to be announced leading up to the 2024 festival.
