Cattle Country Festival is coming back bigger than ever in 2026!

Set for April 10-12 in Gonzales, Texas, the three-day music and camping festival will return for its third year with a stacked lineup featuring Koe Wetzel, Treaty Oak Revival, and Randy Houser.

New in 2026, the festival will also feature a Whiskey Jam stage, spotlighting rising talent such as Brooke Baird, Brandi Behlen, Ellis Bullard, Hayden Butler, Aaron McBee, Aaron McDonnell, and more.

The Cattle Country Festival is heading back to “The Boot,” a sprawling 400-acre ranch along the Guadalupe River in Gonzales, Texas. Just an hour from Austin, San Antonio, and Houston, this one-of-a-kind spot is the perfect home for the three-day music and camping event.

Surrounded by more than 150 acres of pecan trees, festivalgoers can soak up the shade, kick back by the river, and take in the peaceful Texas scenery. Back by popular demand, the 2026 festival will feature more GA and VIP camping, expanded glamping options (complete with a private lounge), and additional RV spaces and on-site amenities for those who want to stay close to the action.

Fans who need to cool off can head to one of The Boot’s inviting swimming areas, dubbed “ the Cowboy Coves” where they can float, splash, and enjoy the festival from the water.

Of course, no Texas festival is complete without good eats and drinks. The grounds will be filled with food, wine, spirits, brews, and local shopping (a full list of vendors is coming soon).

Every year, The Boot transforms into a true weekend escape where fans and artists come together for nonstop fun. Whether it’s tailgating, fishing, floating the river, or jamming late into the night, the party starts long before the first note plays and doesn’t end when the headliner leaves the stage.
