Kentucky’s own Chris Stapleton is coming home. Festival producer Danny Wimmer Presents has officially unveiled the lineup for the 8th annual Bourbon & Beyond, returning to the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville from September 24-27, 2026.
This year’s country and roots slate is the strongest in the festival’s history, featuring a massive Saturday night headlining set from Stapleton (who recently took home the 2026 Grammy for Best Country Solo Performance). He’ll be joined by a “who’s who” of modern country and Americana icons throughout the four-day weekend.
Country & Roots Highlights:
- Kacey Musgraves: Topping the Friday night bill.
- The Red Clay Strays: Joining Stapleton for a high-energy Saturday.
- Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit: Bringing their legendary songwriting to the main stage.
- Bluegrass Situation Stage: A dedicated home for the best in bluegrass, including Sierra Hull, The Infamous Stringdusters, and Kitchen Dwellers.
- Kentucky’s Own: Spotlighting local talent like St. Paul & The Broken Bones, S.G. Goodman, and The Creekers.
Beyond the music, fans can expect the revitalized Fork & Flask culinary experience and the Kroger Big Bourbon Bar, featuring line dancing and premium spirits.
