Country fans, get ready: Boots in the Park is returning to Norco for its eighth year, bringing a full day of music, dancing and summer vibes to SilverLakes Sports Complex on Saturday.

This year’s lineup features Sam Hunt, Lee Brice, Ian Munsick, Hailey Whitters, Dylan Schneider, Kensie Coppin and Luwiss Lux. The gates open at noon, with music, food, drinks and festivities running through 10 p.m.

Past years have seen heavy hitters like Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, Thomas Rhett and Chris Young take the stage, and this year’s edition is shaping up to be another boot-stomping celebration. Here’s what to know before heading out.

Tickets

General admission Tier 3 tickets are going for $125, with full-priced GA tickets listed at $150 when earlier tiers sell out. General admission includes access to food and merchandise vendors, line dancing areas and art installations.

VIP Tier 2 tickets are $225, which includes GA access plus express entry, viewing areas in front of the stage, VIP-only bars, restrooms with flush toilets, and a collectible lanyard.

This is an all-ages event. Children under 5 may enter for free with a ticketed parent or guardian. Alcohol will be available to guests 21 or older with valid ID. Tickets available at tickets.activatedevents.com.
