Country Thunder Alberta featured the hottest acts in country music (PHOTOS)

Country Thunder has been rolling into southeast Wisconsin and Arizona for the past 24 years and this year the festival came back to Calgary for its second year.

Last year we saw big names like Tim McGraw, Chris Young, Luke Bryan, and Big & Rich all rock the stage at Prairie Winds Park and this year was just as good.

Brad Paisley, Thomas Rhett, and Blake Shelton headlined the 2017 event for three days of country music fun.

If you missed out on the festival, we’ve rounded up some photo’s and videos for you to feel like you were there the whole weekend.

Ps: look for what Brad Paisley said about Canada. 🍩 😂
