Chris Stapleton, DMB, Foo Fighters Headline Bourbon & Beyond 2026 Lineup

The line-up has dropped for one of the most exciting Kentucky music festivals of the year! Bourbon & Beyond fans, get ready for a weekend of your favorite artists, old and new, in Louisville, KY, at the Kentucky Expo Center.

It's actually longer than a weekend now, September 24th, 25th, 26th, and 27th of this year. With these incredible headliners, you may have a hard time choosing which day to attend, but with camping passes and hotel packages, you can stay and take it all in. Honestly, the bourbon, the food, the vendors, Kentucky Kingdom, VIP options, etc., really elevate this experience, well, BEYOND (pun intended) the norm.

The true stars of the show are featured on multiple stages (Five! Wow!) across the Expo Center map. Locations of acts will be announced closer to the time, but here is the lineup that was released today:

So many acts, you may need a magnifying glass to read them all! Those headliners are gonna be AMAZING! Foo Fighters, Mumford and Sons, Chris Stapleton, Dave Matthews Band, Queens of the Stone Age, Kacey Musgraves, Red Clay Strays, Hootie and the Blowfish, and 100+ total artists. We are HERE for the country representation too! And Kentucky acts, of course.

One of my favorite newcomers will be there! Kaitlyn Butts. If you haven't heard about her yet, you should look her up. Here's one of my favorite songs of hers.

Also, The Creekers! From the beautiful Bluegrass state. Eastern Kentucky. Here's one of their most popular songs right now.

That's one of the fun things about this festival. You can see superstars and newcomers in one place. Fall in love with your favorites all over again and go home with brand new jams on your playlist. For tickets and more information, visit bourbonandbeyond.com/.
