The clock above counts down to Stagecoach Festival 2027 in late April 2027 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, the country-music sister event to Coachella, produced by the same Goldenvoice team on the weekend immediately following Coachella's second weekend.
Stagecoach is the largest country music festival in North America by attendance, a three-day event that takes over the same Empire Polo Club grounds Coachella has just vacated. Goldenvoice launched Stagecoach in 2007 as Coachella's country counterpart, and it has grown into a 80,000-per-day spectacle that combines mainstream country headliners with bluegrass, Americana, alt-country, and progressively more crossover pop and hip-hop programming. The Mane Stage hosts headliners; the Palomino tent leans country traditionalist; the Mustang stage runs newer and rock-tinged country; and the Late Night DJ tent brings house and EDM after the main programming wraps.
The festival's identity has shifted noticeably over the past five years as country music itself has broken out of its commercial-radio silo. The 2024 edition booked Post Malone before his Stoney/F1 Trillion country pivot, the 2025 edition booked Backstreet Boys and Nelly alongside Eric Church and Jelly Roll, and the post-Beyonce-Cowboy-Carter and Shaboozey-led 2025-26 country mainstream has continued to widen the lineup's stylistic range. Stagecoach 2027 inherits that broader booking philosophy.
The 2027 lineup is announced by Goldenvoice in early winter 2026-27, typically simultaneously with Coachella. Expected headliner candidates include Luke Bryan, Tim McGraw, Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen (whose tour cycle aligns), Zach Bryan, Kane Brown, Carrie Underwood, and continued crossover bookings from rock, hip-hop, and pop. Per Goldenvoice practice, expect a Diplo's Honkytonk that has become a festival institution, a Friday-Saturday-Sunday cadence with the strongest headliner traditionally on Saturday, and surprise guest collaborations during the Mane Stage closing sets.
Stagecoach is livestreamed on the official Stagecoach YouTube channel each year, with multi-stage feeds running through the headliner sets each night. The Mane Stage headliner takes the stage between 21:30 and 23:00 PT, which is 00:30-02:00 ET on the next day, 05:30-07:00 BST on the next day, 06:30-08:00 CEST on the next day, 10:00-11:30 IST on the next day, and 13:30-15:00 JST on the next day. Three-day passes sell via stagecoachfestival.com starting in late summer 2026, with single-day, GA+, VIP, and Resort packages available.
Stagecoach pairs naturally with the country-music awards calendar including the 60th CMA Awards and ACM Awards, and shares the Indio festival circuit with Coachella 2027. For the broader US festival calendar, see Bonnaroo 2027 and Outside Lands 2027.
