What Makes Boot Stomp Different 💖
In a world of overcrowded mega-festivals, Bow Valley Boot Stomp proudly does things differently – and that’s the point.
Rooted in Community: Produced by a Cochrane-based, all-women team, with a strong commitment to supporting Canadian talent.
Showcasing Emerging Artists: Giving rising country performers a chance to share their craft – often their first festival-stage opportunity. Over half of our lineup comes from Alberta, delivering authentic local country music.
Big Energy, Small-Town Charm: Incredible music without the chaos means shorter lines, friendly crowds and room to relax and enjoy.
Gender Balanced: A 50/50 performance split between male and female artists, including a female headliner to kick off Friday night.
Inclusive & Welcoming: From the community stage to the campground, it’s all about good people, good energy and creating a space where everyone feels at home.
