The lineup for the 2026 Stagecoach Festival is starting to take shape, and this year’s bill leans heavily into variety. Organizers behind the annual country gathering confirmed a mix of traditional country, Americana, and legacy rock acts for the April 24–26 event in Indio, California.
Alongside established country names, the announcement brings in artists that stretch beyond the genre’s usual boundaries. Alabama-based breakout act Red Clay Strays joins the roster, continuing their steady rise on major festival stages. They’ll share the lineup with longtime rock favorites Journey and Hootie & the Blowfish, both making appearances at the country-focused event.
According to details released with the lineup, the festival will once again take place at the Empire Polo Club, a familiar home for Stagecoach. The expanded mix of performers reflects a broader approach that has become increasingly common at large-scale country festivals, where genre lines are more flexible than they once were.
