Jason Aldean, Riley Green, Zach Top To Headline 2026 Rock The South

Rock The South is going all out for its 2026 edition with an all-star lineup and a new location, marking a new chapter for the Southern festival.

Jason Aldean, Riley Green and Zach Top will be headlining next year’s festival taking place June 11-13, promoter Peachtree Entertainment announced, leading a mix of country icons and rising stars, including Jessie Murph, BigXthaPlug, Brantley Gilbert, Travis Tritt, Tracy Lawrence, Craig Morgan, Lauren Alaina, The Castellows, Austin Snell, Jake Worthington, Cole Goodwin, Graham Barham and many more.

After spending 15 years in Cullman, the festival’s new home is The Fields at Decatur, a 150-plus-acre property just south of Huntsville and about an hour from Birmingham. The large site provides maximum comfort and flow, and it includes expanded campgrounds and drainage. It also has more shade, hangout areas for fans, an enhanced VIP experience and, for the first time, a second stage.

Peachtree Entertainment now owns the festival property outright, allowing for long-term investment in infrastructure and improvements that elevate the experience.

“This lineup represents everything Rock The South stands for — country roots, Southern pride and unforgettable live music,” Peachtree Entertainment’s Nathan Baugh, CEO, and Shane Quick, co-founder of Rock The South and president of live events, said in a joint statement. “From icons like Jason Aldean and Travis Tritt to the next generation of stars like Riley Green, Jessie Murph, and Zach Top, this year’s festival is a true celebration of where country music has been and where it’s headed.

Moving to The Fields at Decatur allows us to take Rock The South to the next level. We’re building this site from the ground up for our fans, with more space, better access, and new ways to experience the music. This is the biggest and best Rock The South we’ve ever had, and it’s just the beginning of what’s ahead.”

The festival will also support charities from Decatur as well as from its previous home in Cullman to help both communities grow. Rock The South has brought over $150 million in economic impact to Cullman, and organizers expect to generate even more in Decatur.

“This year’s Rock The South lineup is one of the best yet, and we’re proud Decatur will be the stage for some outstanding performers,” said Decatur Mayor Tab Bowling. “Beyond the music, the festival brings visitors, energy, and economic impact that will ripple through our community and local businesses. It’s an exciting moment for Decatur and for everyone ready to celebrate The Biggest Party in the South.”

Registration for tickets is now open at RockTheSouth.com. The festival also partnered with StubHub for a secure fan-to-fan ticket exchange.
