Overview

• Farm Aid’s 40th‑anniversary concert is set for Sept. 20 at Huntington Bank Stadium on the University of Minnesota campus in Minneapolis.
• Organizers confirmed Dylan as a last‑minute addition days before the show, a full‑circle moment given his 1985 Live Aid remark that inspired Farm Aid’s founding.
• The bill features board members Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp, Neil Young, Dave Matthews and Margo Price alongside Kenny Chesney, Billy Strings, Wynonna Judd and more.
• The event will proceed at the stadium after Teamsters Local 320 reached a tentative agreement with the University of Minnesota, averting a disruption.
• Coverage includes a free livestream on Farm Aid’s YouTube and via nugs, a CNN television broadcast segment, and full audio on SiriusXM, as the nonprofit highlights Homegrown Village programming and its more than $85 million raised since 1985, including roughly $31 million in grants.
