Merritt’s Rockin River Music Fest is set to return after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Three-time Grammy Award-winning superstar Tim McGraw will mark his return to the Rockin River stage after playing in Merritt 17 years ago.

Multi-platinum singer and songwriter Darius Rucker will also head this year’s stellar lineup.

The two will be joined by one of country’s most energetic performers, Chris Janson, chart-topping star Billy Currington and critically-acclaimed singer/songwriter HARDY.

The music festival will be running from July 28-31, the B.C. Day long weekend, and will feature more than 20 rock and country musical artists and groups.
