The third Gone Country at Jamestown is set for the third Saturday in July 2027. If you went in 2025 or 2026, you know the drill: a dusty western main street, a big stage on the grass behind it, a lot of hats, and a fundraising total at the end of the night that makes everyone a little teary. If you haven’t been, this page is the practical stuff.

Tickets

Tickets are sold only through the Twins Cancer Fundraising site, which uses the Zeffy platform. This is what the ticket page listed when we checked on October 21, 2026, with GST included:

Ticket Price What you get
General admission, super early bird $131.25 Entry to the whole town
General admission, early bird $141.75 Same, next price step
General admission $156.45 Same, regular price
International Motorsports Margaritaville $208.95 Private area and bar, entry an hour early (3 pm), a food ticket, limited-access washrooms, no-lineup drink tickets
Sammy J’s VIP + Early Access $303.45 Entry an hour early (3 pm) with two drink tickets, dinner and snacks, private full-service bar, coat check, premium washrooms

Sponsor, artist and media passes are also listed but aren’t for public sale. A few things worth knowing before you click buy:

  • At checkout, Zeffy asks for an optional tip to the platform. TCF asks buyers to set it to $0, because the charity covers Zeffy itself.
  • Refunds stop after May 28, 2027. The 2026 FAQ said tickets can’t be transferred and there’s no will call, so bring your ticket on your phone or printed.
  • It sells out. The 2026 show was sold out, and only a few dozen tickets were left in the days before. If any remain at the door, they cost more.

What the night is like

Jamestown isn’t a concert in a field so much as a small western town you wander around. TCF describes multiple stages and bars, a main stage at the town square, and a grassy viewing area out back by the pond. Expect local musicians, actors doing pop-up scenes in the street, stand-up comedy and a burlesque show.

Around the town there’s a live fishing pond, a mechanical bull and a driving range, plus a barber doing clean shaves, tattoo artists and a custom hat maker. Local restaurants, wineries, breweries and distilleries pour and serve; one partner restaurant handles cocktails.

In 2026 the main stage moved off the old-west street onto a grassed area with more than twice the room, with a 60-foot stage. A second, quieter stage called the Outpost sat at the far end of town. The James Barker Band headlined, Langley’s Karen Lee Batten and her team ran most of the entertainment, and there were fast-draw contests, Indigenous dancers and a fashion show. TCF hasn’t said yet what changes for 2027.

Lineup

Not announced yet. Headliners have usually been revealed months ahead; we’ll add the 2027 names here when TCF publishes them.

Getting there and home

Jamestown is on 248 Street in North Langley, a rural road. For 2027, the ticket page says parking and other details will come closer to the date.

For the 2026 show, the FAQ said parking was free at Thunderbird Show Park, across the road from the Jamestown entrance, with attendants directing cars, and there was a drop-off loop for rideshares, taxis, party buses and limos. There’s no re-entry once you’re in.

It’s a licensed event that ends at 11 pm on a country road. Book a ride, pick a designated driver or split a party bus with friends. TCF asks everyone to plan a safe way home, and so do we.

Practical questions

These answers come from TCF’s FAQ for the 2026 show. They may change for 2027, so check the FAQ page closer to the date.

  • ID: two pieces, one of them government photo ID.
  • Bags: keep them small. Bag and coat check was for VIP guests only.
  • Food and drink: food trucks with vegetarian and gluten-free options; beer, wine, spirits and non-alcoholic drinks. No outside food or drink.
  • Paying: cards are taken on site and there are ATMs.
  • Chairs: don’t bring your own; there’s some seating.
  • Rain: the show goes on, with tents and big umbrellas. Weather isn’t a reason for a refund, so bring a rain jacket.
  • Access: there are accessible washrooms.
  • What to wear: TCF’s advice is your best country outfit.

Where the money goes

TCF says every dollar goes to local families fighting cancer. In 2026 the twins committed to raising $1.2 million over three years toward a $2.1-million upgrade of the mammography clinic at Langley Memorial Hospital, which will add 3D diagnostic mammography so Langley patients don’t have to go to Surrey or Abbotsford. The hospital foundation says the 2026 night raised a record $970,000. The full year-by-year story is on our Gone Country history page.

Volunteering

Gone Country is run entirely by volunteers, about 300 of them in 2026. The sign-up form on the TCF site lists bar (experience and Serving It Right needed), room host, front-door greeter, grounds crew, merchandise booth, drink tickets and next-day clean-up. Last time, TCF contacted volunteers in mid-April and held an orientation in early June.
