Deschutes County Fairgrounds is gearing up for the second installment of the FairWell Festival – after a successful inaugural run last year with 60,000 attending fans – this coming July 19-21, 2024. And it’s set to be another extraordinary weekend for country music in Central Oregon. Leading the jam-packed 36-plus performances are seven-time Grammy award winner Kacey Musgraves (who will be relieving Brandi Carlile, who will no longer be able to perform due to family commitments), a folk trio from Ohio Caamp, and another Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Billy Strings.
