Headlining this year’s event are country music icons Midland and Drake Milligan, alongside an exciting roster of international and homegrown talent.

With its reputation for blending country, Americana, and folk rock, the festival’s first wave of announced artists includes Seasick Steve, GRAMMY-winner Fantastic Negrito, Australian award-winner Fanny Lumsden, and breakout U.S. star Alana Springsteen. Other notable acts include Larry Fleet, Charles Wesley Godwin, Ashley Monroe, and an exclusive European appearance from Chuck Ragan.

Beyond the music, The Long Road is embracing country culture with its signature American BBQ, craft beer selections, vintage funfair attractions, and a classic car and bike showcase. Family-friendly activities, including kids’ camps, campfire singalongs, and special performances, ensure a welcoming atmosphere for all ages.
