Country Thunder unveils the highly anticipated lineup for Country Thunder Arizona 2026, set for April 9-12 at Canyon Moon Ranch in Florence, Arizona for its 30th installment. The stacked bill features headliners Lainey Wilson, Zach Top, Brooks & Dunn, and Gavin Adcock, plus Waylon Wyatt, Ian Munsick, Lonestar, Scotty McCreery, and more rounding out the weekend. This year’s headliners represent the entire spectrum of 21st century country music and culture. Wilson has shone as the genre’s reigning queen, while Top and Adcock have risen through the ranks to chart-topping arena headliners over the last eighteen months, each claiming superstar status in his own right. Brooks & Dunn are country royalty whose influence has only grown from generation to generation. Additional performances come from Jay Webb, Jackson Dean, George Birge, Dasha, Logan Layman, Billy Dean & Collin Raye, Lanie Gardner, Austin Snell, Lauren Watkins, Annie Bosko, The Wilder Blue, and many more. New for 2026, fans can lock in their tickets for just $20 down, followed by equal monthly payments leading up to the show.
Festivalgoers will once again enjoy rides, carnival games, delicious food and beverage options, in addition to intentional elements of the experience inspired by Country Thunder CEO and President Troy Vollhoffer’s childhood awe and wonder of the Circus. The Country Thunder Arizona grounds host a myriad of other vendors, everything from new ink to custom hat trimming. The Copperhead Stage spotlights rising artists from the Grand Canyon State, and the Songwriter Showcase pulls back the curtain and introduces the writers behind the Main Stage’s biggest smashes. Launched back in 1996, Country Thunder Arizona thrives as the Southwest’s ultimate annual country music experience. The 2025 festival saw the milestone of hosting the One Millionth Fan first-timer Lacey Culpepper, who received Platinum Experience tickets and a campsite for life as part of a once-in-a-lifetime prize pack. The leading international country music festival producer will be announcing the lineups for Country Thunder Wisconsin, Country Thunder Florida, Country Thunder Saskatchewan, and Country Thunder Alberta in the near future.
