The KICKER Country Stampede Music Festival has again filled its roster with award winners, chart toppers, and music legends to entertain the nearly 170,000 fans that attend the four-day event. This will be the third consecutive year KICKER has sponsored the country-music and camping festival that rocks Tuttle Creek State Park and Manhattan, Kan., June 25-28.

KICKER is the title sponsor of the festival, and just as in previous years, the performers will be presented with a collection of KICKER products during the show to fill their tour buses with great sound. The artists will receive their giveaways in front of everyone on the massive Starscreen, displaying to the crowd at five times larger than life.

“This event is a great way to have some of our sales reps and dealers observe and connect with music-loving consumers,” said Kevin Campbell, KICKER Director of Global Marketing. “If they aren’t already, these are our future customers.”

The KICKER XRV (Xtreme Recreational Vehicle) tractor-trailer will be in attendance, fully loaded with product, vehicles and prizes to give away to lucky concert-goers. The XRV will also be engaging music fans with its unrelenting “Boom Room” filled with subwoofers that will knock them off their feet.

Blake Shelton, winner of the CMA’s Male Vocalist-of-the-Year and coach on TV’s “The Voice,” will be headlining Saturday night following a performance by country powerhouse Sara Evans, who is touring for her new album Slow Me Down. Mega-star country duo Florida Georgia Line will bring its creative musical blend to headline on Friday night. Returning to the Stampede will be rising-star Thomas Rhett, who has performed two straight years at the festival. Travis Tritt is no stranger to the stage and is a welcomed addition to round out an already impressive lineup.

STILLWATER, USA – KICKER® returns to its music roots as the title sponsor of the 24th annual KICKER Country Stampede, June 20-22 at the new venue of Heartland Motorsports Park in Topeka, Kansas. The three-day music festival has moved from its traditional setting of Manhattan, Kansas due to severe flooding this spring.

More than 65 bands total will perform, with 16 featured on the main stage alone. This year’s headliners are country-music stars Jake Owen, Old Dominion and Jason Aldean in front of 160,000-plus fans, placing it among the largest country-music festivals in the nation.

KICKER plans to show off several vehicles during the event, including the XRV (Xtreme Recreational Vehicle) tractor-trailer, which houses a full showroom of hands-on KICKER products. Accompanying the XRV will be a KICKER/SSV Works™-equipped UTV racer, featuring a Phase 5 audio kit with subwoofer, speakers and powersports amplifiers, alongside an additional UTV loaded with over 4,500 watts of KICKER power including TB-Series tube subwoofers and horn-loaded tower systems.

The newest in a trio of “ground pounders,” the KICKER Silverado pickup truck will be stationed near the rig, playing more than 5,000 watts of bass from a half-dozen KICKER L7S™ square subwoofers.

Select KICKER lifestyle and portable gear will be available for purchase, including headphones, the entire KICKER Bullfrog™ portable speaker line and select wearables, and concert goers can play games with chances to win prizes. They will also be able to register for daily giveaways of a Bullfrog BF400 wireless speaker.  Winners will be announced via email during the event.

Prior to stage performances, each Country Stampede artist will receive a gift basket filled with KICKER gear, and they will also autograph acoustic guitars that will be auctioned off for charity.
