The inaugural
Flatlands Country Music Festival at Sporting Park will run Sept. 12-14 in Kansas City, Kansas, organizers announced. Capacity is 24,000.
"When we were first approached to help create a new country music festival in Kansas City, we were blown away by the stadium and the potential for this market," said Rand Levy of Marquee, who is promoting the event. "We're very confident both the artists and our audience
will have an incredible experience at Flatlands."
Bryan, named Favorite Male Country Artist at the 2012 American Music Awards, will headline on Sept. 13. Reigning Billboard Country Artist of
the Decade Keith will be the featured performer the following night.
Additional artists confirmed include
Thompson Square,
