Big As Texas Festival is a music festival launching at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds outside of Houston, Texas, in 2024.
The headliners include acts such as Thomas Rhett, Dierks Bentley and Billy Strings. Midland, Morgan Wade, Tracy Byrd, Julia Cole and Warren Zeiders are also playing.
Big As Texas Has Big Talent
The festival is independently produced. According to Woodlands Online, Big As Texas’ co-executive producer and talent buyer Steve Said shared the following in a statement.
“We are stepping out in grand fashion for our inaugural year, and I couldn’t be more excited about the stellar music lineup we have curated for next May. It’s ultimately meant to be representative of the many facets of Country and Americana music because we like to think there is something for everyone at Big As Texas Fest.”
Big As Texas’ co-executive producer Trey Diller added:
“With an incredible lineup secured for Year 1, my team and I now turn our attention to curating all of the major aspects of the festival-piong experience for fans – from the food and drink to the nonprofit partnerships to the immersive activations. We already have a lot of amazing plans in store for our fans, and I’m hopeful Texans will show out in major form to support our independent locally-owned festival.”
What to Expect
The festival is taking place from May 10th through to the 12th, 2024.
According to the Big As Texas official website, the festival features “dozens of Texas vendors and artisans alongside custom exhibitions, immersive art installations, live-fire grilling, carnival games, and more for attendees of all ages.”
It is more than just a music festival. It is a celebration of all things Texas. This includes the livelihoods of those living in the Lonestar state. Especially those residing in the county where the festival is taking place.
A Festival With A Big Message
According to the festival’s website, Montgomery County is “facing an unprecedented epidemic with rapidly rising rates of suicide deaths.”
The website continues, “Due to these alarming statistics, we’ve decided to donate ten percent of net proceeds from each individual ticket sold to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that promote suicide death prevention both in Montgomery County and across Texas. Plus, we invite local experts, doctors, therapists, elected officials, and nonprofit organizations to join together each spring and help us make a major impact long after the festival ends on Sunday night.”
What an amazing cause behind an amazing festival.
Tickets are available via the festival’s official website.
