Rock The South 2026 Promises Its Biggest Year Yet With Jason Aldean, Riley Green, Zach Top & More
The “Biggest Party in the South” is coming back in 2026 — and it’s shaping up to be the most exciting edition yet.
Jason Aldean, Riley Green, Zach Top, and Jessie Murph are among the major artists announced for next year’s Rock The South festival, which will take place June 11–13, 2026.
For the first time in its 15-year history, the beloved country festival is moving from its longtime home in Cullman to The Fields at Decatur, bringing fans a brand-new setting without losing the honky-tonk spirit that made Rock The South legendary.
Organizers Peachtree Entertainment also revealed a stacked lineup featuring BigXthaPlug, Brantley Gilbert, Travis Tritt, Tracy Lawrence, Craig Morgan, Lauren Alaina, The Castellows, Austin Snell, Jake Worthington, Cole Goodwin, Graham Barham, The Creekers, Tyler Nance, Zach John King, Jay Webb, Tyce Delk, Chandler Walters, Myles Morgan, Connor Hicks, Ava Hall, Callie Prince, Ethan Garner, Emmy Moyen, and Dee Jay Silver.
“This lineup represents everything Rock The South stands for — country roots, Southern pride, and unforgettable live music,” said Nathan Baugh, CEO of Peachtree Entertainment, and Shane Quick, Rock The South co-founder and president of Live Events. “From icons like Jason Aldean and Travis Tritt to rising stars like Riley Green, Jessie Murph, and Zach Top, this year’s festival celebrates where country music has been — and where it’s going.”
The move to Decatur marks a bold new chapter for the festival. “We’re building The Fields at Decatur from the ground up with fans in mind — more space, easier access, and new experiences. This will be the biggest and best Rock The South yet,” organizers added.
Since its founding, Rock The South has brought in more than $150 million in economic impact for the city of Cullman and has become one of the Southeast’s signature country music events.
