Opening Artist: DJ T Rex

Headliner: Owen Riegling
Owen Riegling is the kind of artist so down to earth his boots are always dirty. He’s a small-town kid with his roots firmly planted in the songs he sings. Riegling was raised in Mildmay, Ontario, a town of 1,200 where keeping yourself grounded is the only way up. It’s no accident that the same small-town humility and authenticity translated into the massive Platinum-certified radio hit single “Old Dirt Roads”. In 2023, he signed a deal with Universal Music Canada, released a series of chart-climbing singles, toured coast to coast, worked with some of Nashville’s biggest writers and producers, and graced the main stage at Boots & Hearts. Listen now on Spotify
