I wonder why they are announcing it so far in advance. I mean I know there's tickets but still. I hope we have a new album months before then.
I doubt there'll be a new album before then. This might be a pre-release type of promotion with a new single. They also announced Lainey Wilson for July 12.
Shania Twain, Lainey Wilson to headline P.E.I. country music festival next summer
Cavendish Beach Music Festival announces first big names for 2025 event

Country superstars Shania Twain and Lainey Wilson will headline the 2025 Cavendish Beach Music Festival, organizers Whitecap Entertainment announced Tuesday.
The news comes just two weeks after the 15th annual festival came to a close in the Prince Edward Island tourism mecca.
Twain will perform on Thursday, July 10, and Wilson will take the stage on Saturday, July 12. Tickets for a one-day Thursday pass start at $190 plus, and a one-day Saturday pass starts at $164 plus tax.
Festival tickets are available now from the Cavendish Beach Music Festival site.
The native of Timmins, Ont., is the top-selling female country-pop artist of all time. She has won five Grammys, sold more than 100 million albums worldwide and, at 58 years of age, shows no signs of slowing down.
In 2023, she kicked off her sold-out global Queen of Me tour, which was one of the Top 10 highest-grossing country tours of the year.
Her hits include Any Man of Mine, That Don't Impress Me Much, You're Still the One and Man! I Feel Like A Woman!
Wilson, 32, who hails from Louisiana, will be making her first trip to P.E.I. She is the reigning Country Music Association entertainer of the year, and also acted in Season 5 of the hit television series Yellowstone.
Wilson won this year's Grammy Award for country album of the year with Bell Bottom Country.
The performers add to a star-studded list of CBMF alumni. The festival has in the past hosted Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Chris Stapleton, Kenny Chesney, Blake Shelton, Keith Urban and Brad Paisley.
I hope to have a new album by 2025 Fall, and this could indeed be a pre-release type of promotion, like she did back in 2017 at the Stagecoach.
Or it could be the first announcement of a Canada mini-tour like the one she did in UK & Ireland this Summer.
I'd LOVE to have her headlining a Festival here in Italy after the whole Bocelli experience this past week.
This is the biggest Country concert in the Maritimes every year.. and tickets sales never disappoint... this is a huge money maker for PEI- they always announce the headliners not long after current year's festival.
You best believe I got my family & I tickets today as soon as it was announced! This will be my 4th time seeing her in the Maritimes-- I was at the 2014 concert last time she was in PEI, Halifax last year & WAY back in 1999 when she was in Moncton, NB.

Let’s go, girls (and guys); Shania Twain is coming to Prince Edward Island next summer
According to a news release from the Cavendish Beach Music Festival, multi-Grammy winner singer Twain will headline the 16th edition of the event in P.E.I. July 2025. She will be joined by CMA Entertainer of the Year Lainey Wilson.
“We have always championed female country artists across all of our stages and are very proud to be featuring two female headliners in 2025,” said Ben Murphy, CEO of Whitecap Entertainment, in the release.
Twain will perform on July 10 and Wilson, who will be making her first visit to Atlantic Canada, will close out the festival on July 12.
This year’s edition of the festival featured more than 50 acts, including the Zac Brown Band, the Brothers Osborne and Tyler Childers.
On Shania timeline I don’t expect nothing more til end of 2025 or beginnings 2026 at best.
We’ve got too much since Queen Of Me release: -5 bonus tracks -Anne Marie duet -yung gravy duets -Spotify sessions -bocelli duet -twisters ost -beauty beast ost
Is something else I’ve forgot or coming soon?
She’s always talk about a Xmas album and a duets album but never arrived.
Rest 2024 I think it just for vegas dates and maybe 4-5 extra shows like she did on Abu Dhabi and 2025 she will maybe record new music and do some festivals and Summer dates.
