Stagecoach Country Music Festival Tickets

After a successful two years, the Stagecoach Country Music Festival believes the third time is a charm and will return April 25th and 26th in Indio, California. Kenny Chesney, Brad Paisley, Reba McEntire, Kid Rock, Little Big Town, Darius Rucker, and Lady Antebellum will all be featured.

The festival was created in 2007 as accompaniment to Coachella Music and Arts Festival. Both are held at Polo Field in Indio, Calif., just days apart - while Coachella features more alternative and jam bands, Stagecoach is strictly country.

The year, the festival will be held on only 2 days, with Brad Paisly headlining on Saturday night, and Kenny Chesney claiming the top spot Sunday night. Concertgoers will also be treated to performances from Miranda Lambert, the Charlie Daniels Band, Ricky Skaggs, Earl Scruggs, and many other top-notch country acts.

While most summer festivals have diverse lineups in many genres, Stagecoach prides itself on its country roots, both mainstream and non-mainstream. When the event debuted, 30,000 fans came out each day to see acts such as Alan Jackson, George Strait, Brooks & Dunn and Kenny Chesney on the main stage, plus three other stages with acts like Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, Neko Case and Garrison Keillor.

The festival has been praised for matching mainstream and non-mainstream acts. The main stage included a number of crowd favorites, while up-and-coming artists filled the smaller stages and brought just as much joy to fans.

The festivities included mechanical bulls, hayrides, live auctioneers, antique cowboy gear, rawhide sculptures, western heritage art, American folk art, line and square dancing, fiddling demonstrations and country music memorabilia - everything that a good country fan needs! Add that to the massive camping area and cowboys everywhere will be set!
