“Hosting Country Music Week and the Canadian Country Music Awards is a great opportunity to showcase Calgary as a music city. Our emerging music scene has been growing and thriving over the last 10 years with the building of new music venues, festivals, and attractions,” Chair of the local CCMA Host Committee, Ben Graham said in a statement. 

We’re home of the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame, the Music Mile, over 30 year-round music festivals and the greatest outdoor show on earth, The Calgary Stampede – which showcases country music’s best artists every year.”

Unfortunately, for those who are ready to giddy up – tickets aren’t on sale just yet, but it’ll only be a matter of time. More information is expected to come to light this spring so stay tuned!
