The dream of the ’90s (and early 2000s) is alive and well in East Troy, WI. Rockers Nickelback and Creed will be joined by a host of fellow rockers for this year’s edition of the Summer of ’99 and Beyond Festival at Alpine Valley Music Theatre on July 18 and 19.

The lineup for the second edition of the nostalgic fest will also include: Live, Daughtry, Tonic, Our Lady Peace, Lit, 3 DoorsDown, Sevendust, Mammoth WVH, Hinder, Vertical Horizon and Fuel. Two-day tickets for the event will go on sale at 11 a.m. ET on Friday (Feb. 21) here, with promoter Live Nation noting that they are a single ticket to be used for both shows; the ticket cannot be broken up into transferrable single-day tickets.

The shows will mark the first time Creed and Nickelback have shared a stage since 1999. Nickelback released their Live From Nashville album in late 2024, recorded during their “Get Rollin’ tour show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena in August 2023, where they were joined by such Music City stars as Ernest, Josh Ross and Brantley Gilbert (on a cover of Steve Earle’s “Copperhead Road”), Daughtry, Bailey Zimmerman and HARDY.

In the windup to the Wisconsin fest, Nickelback will play a series of festival dates in April and May on the Rock the Country tour, which will also feature Kid Rock, Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, Travis Tritt, Aaron Lewis, Big & Rich and more.

Creed will warm up with an appearance at the Stagecoach Festival in April, followed by arena dates in Kentucky, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.

Les Cowboys Fringants have made their latest Billboard debut with their song “Merci ben!” which arrives at No. 30 on the Canada AC chart for May 10. The country-folk track finds the band thanking its fans while reminiscing on its beginnings and milestones, from playing small bars to sold-out arenas. The track’s title is Quebec jargon for “Thank you very much!”
