Outlaw Partners is pleased to host the 2024 Wildlands Festival on Friday and Saturday, August 2nd–3rd, in Big Sky. As the largest conservation-focused outdoor music festival in Southwest Montana, Wildlands aims to raise awareness and funds for non-profit organizations dedicated to saving wild and open spaces while featuring an all-star lineup of musicians.
This summer, the two-day festival will feature country music headliners Maren Morris and Dierks Bentley. American rock n’ roller Lukas Nelson will join Morris on Friday, while Wyatt Flores, troubadour of the gritty American West, will accompany Bentley on Saturday.
“The 2024 lineup for Wildlands will be one of our best yet,” said Eric Ladd, Founder and Chairman of Outlaw Partners. “Having our community gather on summer nights to experience incredible musicians while raising money for a great cause is what Wildlands is all about.”
Bentley, whose unique 21st-century career has had a rare consistency fueled by longevity, released his tenth studio album Gravel & Gold last year. Since releasing his debut album in 2003, Bentley has achieved success with eight more albums that reached the top of the Country sales charts, resulting in 22 number one songs, eight billion streams, three CMA Awards, 15 Grammy nominations and membership into the Grand Ole Opry.
Morris will bring a high energy performance to Montana with her blend of country and pop hits that include “The Middle,” “My Church,” “The Bones,” and selections from her new EP, Intermission. Coming off a tour with The Chicks in 2023, the Nashville artist continues to create music with her own unique sound.
In its fourth year, Wildlands Festival will continue its commitment to celebrate and support wild and scenic lands through musical performances, fundraising and education in the intimate Big Sky Events Arena with Lone Peak as the backdrop. Last year, over $500,000 was raised for river conservation, an unprecedented amount for such fundraising efforts. The goal is to continue that momentum this year through sponsorships, ticket sales, donations, musical performances and personal connections with those who share a love for wild places.
