Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards said, “I’m looking forward to joining country music fans from all over as Bayou Country Superfest returns to Tiger Stadium for its tenth anniversary. This event will be an economic boon for the region and a great opportunity for people from all over to pass a good time in Baton Rouge."

“We are thrilled that the Bayou Country Superfest is returning to Baton Rouge and its original venue – LSU’s Tiger Stadium,” said Lt. Governor Billy Nungesser. “This premier country music festival during the 3-day Memorial Day weekend is a tremendous economic engine for our state, bringing in the most talented and popular country music stars to perform to tens of thousands of adoring fans each day.”

“We are overjoyed that Bayou Country Superfest is returning home to Baton Rouge,” said Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome. “Bayou Country Superfest is not only a major economic driver for our city, this star-studded concert enhances the quality of life for our local residents and offers a wonderful reason to stay home over Memorial Day weekend.”

Paul Arrigo, President & CEO, Visit Baton Rouge said, “Bayou Country Superfest will kick off a great summer for the Capital City. We are very excited to once again be the host city for the festival, where it all began ten years ago! Visit Baton Rouge has already received calls from visitors planning to attend Bayou Country Superfest from New York, Oklahoma, Wisconsin and we can’t wait to welcome them. The festival is planned over a great time in Baton Rouge because most hotels are available, universities are on break and it’s a three-day weekend for most people. We encourage local residents to support the event and invite their out of town friends and family to make the trip to Baton Rouge for the festival over the long weekend.”

“We are excited to once again host this great event and to welcome thousands of new faces to our city and to LSU,” said Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Joe Alleva. “This is a win for everyone involved, especially country music fans who will hear some of the best performers in the world right here in Baton Rouge.”
