The finale began with Cowboy Church, a service given by local pastor, Randy Helm involving local mustangs trained by his team at BLM. The night ended with a high-energy, booty-shakin’ performance by one of Country music’s biggest stars, Luke Bryan. The reigning CMA ‘Entertainer of the Year’ and ACM co-host performed hit after hit, including “That’s My Kind of Night,” “Country Girl (Shake It for Me),” “Roller Coaster” and many more. Other performances includedDustin Lynch, who incited massive swooning from the ladies in the audience, John Michael Montgomery, Love and Theft and Logan Mize. This year’s festival offered more onsite entertainment than ever before.
