Florida Georgia Line, Little Big Town and Toby Keith to play Santa Rosa’s Country Summer Music Festival

Some of country's biggest stars are set for the fifth annual music festival in Santa Rosa.|

Country music acts Florida Georgia Line, Little Big Town and Toby Keith will headline the fifth annual Country Summer Music Festival, set for June 15 to 17 at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa.

Three-day passes, starting from $239, are on sale now at countrysummer.com, the fairgrounds box office at 1350 Bennett Valley Road, and 800-514-3849, with individual day pass sales to be announced in January.

Last year, Country Summer drew more than 30,000 fans from 34 states and four countries.

The festival’s gates will open at noon each day, with live music starting at 1 p.m.

Florida Georgia Line is the only country act to receive the Recording Industry Association of America’s “digital diamond award” for the duo’s single “Cruise,” with more than 10 million copies sold.

Toby Keith was named songwriter-artist of the decade by the Nashville Songwriters Association International.

Little Big Town was named vocal group of the year in 2017 at the Academy of Country Music Awards.

The idea for the festival dates back to 2013, when Impact Entertainment and Amaturo Sonoma Media Group co-produced a sold-out Florida Georgia Line concert at the Sonoma County Fair.

Inspired by that success, the two companies founded the Country Summer event the following year.
