About Hillbilly Boogie Music Festival

We are one of the few known music festivals to promote local Saskatchewan talent at an affordable ticket price. What started as a small little shindig East of Kenaston has grown. We are in our 11th year and each year we grow thanks to you!!!

We have a unique stage nestled in Mother Nature's sound bowl and we are surrounded by rolling hills and big sky. The evening sun setting behind the stage can't be beat. It's a hillbilly experience that you'll never forget so be sure to c'mon down and see it all for yourself!

Be sure to check out the schedule for our lineup.
