Whatever it is, people in this region just love him," Lewis said, "So, for us, we have no qualms about bringing him back." "We'll definitely attract a different crowd to come check out our western celebration and have some fun," he said.īut he also brings back classic acts that have historically been popular in Cheyenne like Aldean, who will perform at the event for his sixth time - still shy of Charlie Daniels' record 11 CFD performances. This year, the outliers from the country genre are Machine Gun Kelly on July 24, followed by T-Pain and Ludacris the next day.
He's also conscious of the importance of bringing a diverse set of artists to CFD to widen the audience going to concerts.

He still sold out in Cheyenne within a couple of hours, Lewis said. Last year they booked Zach Bryan, who had performed at Red Rocks Amphitheater that same year. "We don't necessarily want to bring a lot of people in here that have also been performing down in the Front Range and in Denver," Lewis said.īut that isn't always the case it depends on the act as well. When booking artists, the team also has to recognize competing markets, like the large market to the south in Colorado. "What happens a lot of times is we end up just kind of patching it together at the end," Lewis said. The committee chooses acts they'd like to see but they don't get everyone, whether that be because they aren't available or the parties can't reach a mutual price point. He keeps a pulse on hot acts CFD wants to bring to the Cowboy State and then works with a private talent buying agency, Romeo Entertainment Group, which has been booking CFD shows since the 1980s. Lewis has been volunteering with the contract acts committee for 26 years and this is his third serving as chair. "This is when we really start getting motivated and the volunteers get motivated, and we start really focusing on specific plans that we're going to do around the park." "I'm just excited to get moving," said Scott Lewis, contract acts chairman for CFD. Daily rodeo tickets range from $24 to $51 rooftop starts at $100.
