Sri Lanka and South Asia’s longest running charity concert for children, Country Roads, returns in 2025 for its 37th anniversary show. And it’s back with a “bang-bang.” Now bigger and better than ever, thanks to its new venue, Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams.

The first integrated resort in South Asia, Cinnamon Life will host the Country Music Foundation (CMF)-organised concert at “The Forum” on Sunday, October 19, 2025, starting from 6.30pm onwards.

“Cinnamon Life at City of Dreams is a spectacular architectural feat, and we are pleased to welcome them as our Official Hospitality Partner for 2025. I have no doubt that our loyal fans, and even new converts, will have a wonderful time at this beautiful new venue. All while they enjoy our all-star lineup of local and international artistes renowned for playing their hearts out,” said Country Music Foundation President Feizal Samath.
