Sunday night in the Beer Garden is about to go full 90s country. 🤠🎶

Welcome Neon Rodeo a 90s Country Tribute band to the 38th Annual Casey Popcorn Festival on Sunday, September 6th!

After catching Sara Evans on the Main Stage, keep the party going and head to the Beer Garden for a night packed with the biggest 90s country hits, high-energy fun, and all the throwback vibes you could want. From honky-tonk favorites to sing-at-the-top-of-your-lungs classics, Neon Rodeo is bringing the soundtrack of a generation to Casey.

So dust off your boots, grab your denim, and round up your crew. Boots, hats, fringe, and vintage country looks are all welcome.

This is your chance to relive the glory days, sing every word, and turn Popcorn Festival night into one big neon-lit rodeo.
