Vegas is where the party’s at, and country music is crashing in with Chris Stapleton and Thomas Rhett taking the main stage at the 2017 iHeartRadio Music Festival this September.

The star-studded lineup for the highly-anticipated end-of-summer festival was announced worldwide on Tuesday morning (7/18) and both Stapleton and Rhett landed spots among many top-selling artists in the pop, hip-hop and rock categories. Representing Nashville as the country music staple alongside the massive guest list of artists, they’ll surely make fans out of all in attendance.

Stapleton and Rhett join an A-list lineup of musicians including Kings of Leon, Coldplay, The Weeknd, Niall Horan, Lorde, Miley Cyrus, Harry Styles, P!nk, DJ Khaled, Big Sean, Thirty Seconds to Mars, David Guetta and Kesha.

As the country guys show their stuff on the main stage, Kelsea Ballerini will be rocking it over on the iHeartRadio Daytime Village set-up. She’ll become a ‘Legend’ next to acts such as Halsey, Migos, Little Mix, French Montana and more.

Last year, country music sent out their best with Sam Hunt and Florida Georgia Line showing off what Nashville has to offer. With the huge growth of the genre throughout the past handful of years, it’s no surprise that Stapleton, Rhett and Ballerini will all make their marks in Sin City.

The 2017 iHeartRadio Music Festival will be held at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on September 22 and 23. Tickets are available to purchase for general sale on Friday, July 28, at 10 a.m. PST.
