Boots & Hearts is coming, baby!

This August, from Thursday to Sunday, the 8th to the 11th, the annual music fest at Burls Creek is coming. If you know Boots & Hearts, you know it’s a good time coming. If you don’t know Boots & Hearts, we’re here for ya.

This year, across the four days of action, the festival has announced 33 artists + the Emerging Artist Showcase – and that’s a lot of music!

It’s going to be impossible for you to catch every set. To be at two stages at the same time or not eat or have a seat for a minute or two in the sunshine. But, you’re going to want to try. You’re not going to want to miss the mix of country and rock that’s coming in 2024. You’re not going to want to miss the big names and the up-and-comers. You’re not going to want to miss some of your favourite Canadians.

And speaking of favourite Canadians… you’re not going to want to miss our Don’t Miss Artists at Boots & Hearts 2024.

Check out the day-to-day lineup, Thursday to Sunday, and see who we’ve pegged as the artists we don’t want you to miss out on each day. They’re all great. We promise.

Stay tuned for more about B&H 2024 as we get closer to the summer festival season.
