With 2023 seeing us enjoy huge country festivals such as The Long Road and C2C, incredible UK tours from Shania Twain and Luke Combs, and an epic show from Morgan Wallen, it's fair to say that 2024 has been just as impressive - and there's STILL more to come! Coming in the form of both festivals and tours, 2024 has been huge for live country music in the UK.

But don't worry, we can still look forward to more epic live shows this year. Here's our handy guide of the biggest country tours and festivals coming up in the UK this year, and in 2025...
