Country music superstar Toby Keith is making a trip to Alberta this summer, as part of the 2019 Big Valley Jamboree.

Keith is set to hit the country music festival’s main stage for the event’s Friday night this year. The festival goes down in Camrose, Alta., over the August long weekend.

Keith joins follow headliners Brooks & Dunn, Kane Brown, Lindsay Ell, James Barker Band, Brett Kissel, Old Dominion and Billy Ray Cyrus — all of whom were named to the lineup in November.

This year’s BVJ gets underway on Thursday, Aug. 1 with the kickoff party in the Coors Banquet Saloon. The night opens with The Prairie States making their BVJ debut, followed by Charlie Major and headliner Brothers Osborne later in the night.
