More Than Music: A Weekend Oasis
The Cattle Country Festival prides itself on being an immersive music and camping experience. It all goes down on a stunning, sprawling 400-acre ranch in Gonzales, Texas, affectionately known as “The Boot,” which sits right along the Guadalupe River.
The location couldn’t be better—it’s just an hour away from Austin, San Antonio, and Houston, making it the perfect destination for a Texas getaway.
- Relaxation: Over 150 acres of Texas pecan trees provide shaded groves perfect for relaxing.
- Cool Off: Attendees can take a dip in the inviting Cowboy Coves, the swimming areas along the river.
- Camaraderie: The ranch fosters an unmatched sense of community, with the fun starting with tailgating and river floating before the first act hits the stage.
Back by popular demand, the festival has expanded its offerings with more GA and VIP camping, additional luxurious tents in the Glamping Village (complete with a private lounge), and more RV spaces.
