The beach is about to get louder.
Carolina Country Music Fest has unveiled its 2026 lineup, and it reads like a who’s who of modern country dominance. Set for June 4–7 in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, CCMF is bringing four arena-packing titans to the oceanfront: Post Malone, Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, and Riley Green.
Collectively, they boast dozens of No. 1 singles, billions of global streams, and the kind of crowd-commanding charisma that turns festival fields into full-blown revivals. From Post’s genre-blurring country chapter to Bryan and Shelton’s hit-stacked catalogs and Green’s blue-collar anthems, the 2026 headliners promise four nights of fireworks, literal and musical.
And there’s no better backdrop than the Atlantic Ocean.
More Than a Lineup, It’s a Movement
CCMF has long mastered the art of balance: superstar wattage up top, rising talent across the stages.
The 2026 bill rolls deep with fan favorites and fast-rising names including Cole Swindell, Tucker Wetmore, Justin Moore, Chris Janson, Lauren Alaina, Tracy Lawrence, Flatland Cavalry, Chris Lane, Rodney Atkins, Ashley Cooke, Dasha, LOCASH, Drew Baldridge, Drake White, Emily Ann Roberts, and The Wilder Blue, among many more.
More than 40 artists will take over multiple stages across the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk, continuing CCMF’s tradition of spotlighting tomorrow’s headliners today. It’s a pipeline that has proven prophetic before, side-stage standouts have gone on to become main-stage mainstays.
That’s the magic formula: discover someone new at 2 p.m., scream every word by sunset.
A Decade Deep And Still Selling Out
Now entering its second decade, Carolina Country Music Fest isn’t just surviving the crowded festival market, it’s thriving.
The event has sold out four consecutive years and earned two ACM Festival of the Year nominations, cementing its status as one of the nation’s premier country music experiences. Tens of thousands of fans descend on Myrtle Beach each summer, transforming the shoreline into a sea of boots, ball caps, and sun-kissed singalongs.
There’s something uniquely electric about hearing a chart-topping chorus roll out over crashing waves.
The Experience: Nashville Energy Meets Coastal Cool
CCMF isn’t just about the main stage. It’s a full-scale country immersion.
General Admission grants four days of nonstop music across five stages, plus access to the festival’s signature air-conditioned dive bars (a lifesaver in June), curated shopping villages, interactive fan experiences, and Music City-inspired fun like karaoke, dueling pianos, and line dancing lessons.
It’s Broadway in Nashville, with sand between your toes.
For those craving the red-carpet treatment, Super VIP delivers front-row main stage viewing, an elevated platform with a full-service bar, private festival entry, an air-conditioned catering tent with seating, complimentary hors d’oeuvres and evening buffets, posh private restrooms, and an open bar. In other words: country music, upgraded.
Main Stage VIP is already sold out, but limited General Admission and Super VIP passes remain.
The Clock Is Ticking
Fans can lock in four days of country music for as low as $79 per day with a three-day GA pass. And here’s the kicker: Friday, February 27 at midnight marks the final chance to have Thursday Night included with a three-day ticket.
The countdown is on.
Come June, Myrtle Beach won’t just be a vacation destination, it’ll be the epicenter of country music. Ocean breeze, steel guitars, and a lineup built to shake the shoreline.
Carolina Country Music Fest 2026 is ready to make waves.
