Las Vegas is about to have a few more countries next month.

Wynn Las Vegas’ nightlife division has announced Desert Saddle, a new country music event that promises performances from several A-list musicians. The star-studded celebration will take place at the property’s XS nightclub on December 6 and 7.

Headliners include country star Kane Brown, Marshmello – who is not only a mainstay of the Vegas club scene, but also has a collaboration with Brown – and Diplo, who will instead perform under his real name, Thomas Wesley, to weave a more country atmosphere.

Rounding out the lineup are multi-platinum hitmaker Dustin Lynch, electronic group VAVO and DJ Brandi Cyrus (Miley Cyrus’ sister).

The festival doubles as a partnership between Wynn and Paris Texas, a popular country music venue in Toronto, allowing them to bring a real experience to the Strip. Those wishing to attend the party can purchase two-day passes or treat themselves to a VIP table with bottle service, in keeping with the extravagance of Vegas.

In addition to Desert Saddle Night, country music attendees can also attend the city’s 10-day National Finals Rodeo event at the Thomas & Mack Center Dec. 5-14.

“Wynn Nightlife is committed to challenging the status quo by constantly embracing innovation and seeking new opportunities that meet market demand,” Ryan Jones, vice president of Wynn Nightlife, said in a statement. “We are excited to partner with Paris Texas and capitalize on the growing popularity of the country music genre and the success of country music festivals, as we see significant potential and long-term success in this market.”
