Jamboree In The Hills Comes To A Close

Special Section: Jamboree In The Hills Coverage

The campers roll in and the rednecks line up -- Jamboree in the Hills starts off the same way every year, but each day sure to be an all-new adventure.

"I thought it was outstanding, definitely be back next year," said one Jamboree fan.

"It's my first time this year. I love it, I'm going to come back every single year," said a country music fan.

This year's country music acts kept the crowds going strong all night long. But even if you couldn't make it out to the hills, NEWS9 took you into the crowd, backstage, and even to the front row.

Neal McCoy brought the big show to an end this year. But before he even left the stage, people behind the scenes were already getting started on plans for next year's Jamboree.

"Some of the acts that were here expressed interest in being here next year. We're also looking at some different areas for camping, trying to make it bigger and better for the fans," said Live Nation general manager Kelly Tucker-Jones.

After day in and day out of “roughing” it out in the hills of Morristown – it’s time for the rednecks to pack up and hit the road. But some fans said they plan to linger a little while longer.

"I don't have to go back until Saturday for work, [so I’m going to] dry out a bit," said one camper.

They may be drying out for now -- but they'll be back to do it all over again next year.

An announcement about next year's line-up is expected to be made in about one month.
