Get ready, Arizona.
Since 1993, Country Thunder has been bringing country music festivals to cities across the country. The festival production company got its start in 1993 in Arizona. It quickly expanded its market, growing in 1996 and adding on since, marketing Wisconsin in 1996, Saskatchewan in 2005, Alberta in 2016, Florida in 2019 and Manitoba in 2025as significant market expansions.
North America’s largest country music festival brand has something exciting in store for Florence, Arizona, when Country Thunder comes to town next year. The highly-anticipated festival – which boasts past headliners like Brooks & Dunn, Zach Top, Riley Green and Eric Church, just to name a few – is all set for April 8th through the 11th of 2027.
They’ve slowly been rolling out their billing, which has made for a fun experience for fans. First, they kicked off the “headliner teaser fun” by sharing pink billboards with white cowgirl boots all over Phoenix, Arizona, which fans correctly guessed was their first headliner: Megan Moroney. Weeks later, they released a teaser featuring an orange emoji and a peach emoji before announcing Florida Georgia Line as headliners amidst their major 2027 comeback.
With two headliners announced, the last step remaining was to drop the full lineup. And lucky for country fans in the Grand Canyon State, it’s finally here.
Announced this morning, “Buy Dirt” singer Jordan Davis will be joining Moroney and Florida Georgia Line as headliners. As for supporting acts, Country Thunder Arizona is calling upon the legendary Shenandoah, some criminally underrated traditionalists such as the red-hot Kaitlin Butts and Mae Estes, Nashville favorites such as ERNEST, Carly Pearce, Josh Ross and Just Jayne, as well as rising stars, Stella Lefty, Zach John King and Ashley Cooke (along with plenty of other talented artists).
Simply put, it’s a country music experience that fans don’t want to miss. It’s also an event that has plenty of lodging options, including a multitude of packages that include Tent Camping, Premier Camping and Glamping. That’s just scratching the surface, as far as renowned camping options go. Did I mention that attendees can rent their very own, private porta-potties for their campsites?
And we’d be remiss not to mention the Buckin’ Thunder Pro Bull Riding is BACK and better than ever, allowing fans to get a stellar rodeo experience in addition to the non-stop music. In case that wasn’t enough, Country Thunder Arizona is also throwing late-night after parties, which will be deejayed by DJ Griffin Green, line dancing and swing dancing competitions during the festival and songwriter showcases across all three days of the festival.
It’s really no surprise that the Country Thunder brand continues to deliver on all fronts, considering it’s become the premier festival producer both in the United States and across the world. Their track record speaks for itself, and their strong history of sold-out festivals shows that there’s not much that compares when it comes to being the top-tier, global live music brand for country music.
If all of that sounds great to you (which it should), a wide variety of different packages are available right now. While single-day passes are available for a limited number, starting at $150, three-day general admission is your best bet at $350 plus fees. Of course, that doesn’t even include exclusive add-ons, such as Cooper Canyon & Golden Dune, which give fans front-seat viewing, reserved festival entrance and access to their lounge area, the Pride Den, as well as the Platinum Experience, which comes with access to an exclusive skybox, a full bar, daily appetizers, luxury restrooms and much more.
