The full artist lineup for The Smoke Show at Balloon Fiesta Park in Albuquerque on Aug. 9 has been announced.

Blake Shelton is set to headline the country festival, which will also feature performances by Dylan Scott, Tanya Tucker, Neon Union, Abby Anderson and Frank Ray.

“The energy we felt at Boots In The Park proved how strong the country music community is in Albuquerque,” says Steve Thacher, CEO of Activated Events. “We’re excited to bring that same passion back with The Smoke Show and a lineup that reflects the heart and soul of the genre.”

Fans can expect a full-sensory experience at The Smoke Show BBQ & Country Music Roundup, which brings together the best local BBQ vendors, premium whiskies, a Texas-sized selection of craft beers, and classic country fun with line dancing, competitive cornhole tournaments, and interactive art installations. Tickets are available at abqsmokeshow.com.
