Boots In The Park is returning to Albuquerque, NM, at the iconic Balloon Fiesta Park with an all-star lineup headlined by Post Malone and Jelly Roll.
Taking place Friday, May 15, and Saturday, May 16, 2026, the two-day event will showcase some of the biggest names in both country and pop. In addition to headliners Post Malone and Jelly Roll, Boots In The Park will feature Jessie Murph, Koe Wetzel, Max McNown, Tyler Hubbard, and many more, totaling 20 artists across multiple stages. Festivalgoers can also enjoy line dancing, whiskey and tequila tastings, craft food from local vendors, ice-cold beer, handcrafted cocktails, and immersive art installations.
New this year, Boots In The Park is introducing a Texas Country Stage, shining a spotlight on the rich sound and storytelling spirit of Albuquerque’s neighbor to the east. Fans can look forward to performances from Cody Jinks, Randy Rogers Band, Clay Walker, Josh Abbott Band, Bri Bagwell, and more, each bringing their signature grit, heart, and authenticity for a true Lone Star experience. This addition expands the festival’s lineup even further, offering everything from chart-topping headliners to the soulful sound of Texas country.
Jelly Roll, who is fresh off an award-winning year and one of country music’s biggest breakout successes, will take the stage Friday night, delivering his trademark mix of soul-baring lyrics and genre-blending sound. With hits like “Save Me,” “Need A Favor,” and “Son of a Sinner,” he continues to connect with audiences on a deeply personal level.
Post Malone will headline Saturday night, bringing his chart-topping, boundary-pushing energy to the Boots In The Park stage. Following his celebrated crossover into country with the smash hit “I Had Some Help” and a highly anticipated country album on the way, Post is redefining what it means to be a modern-day music icon.
“We’re proud to return to Albuquerque for year three of Boots In The Park,” said Steve Thacher, CEO of Activated Events. “New Mexico embraced this festival from the start, and it’s quickly becoming a destination event. With a powerhouse lineup featuring Post Malone and Jelly Roll, and the addition of Texas Country favorites, this year will be our biggest yet.”
