LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — The schedule for this year's Bourbon & Beyond was released Wednesday.

The music festival is slated for Sept. 24-27 on the Highland Festival Grounds at the Kentucky Exposition Center. Headliners include Foo Fighters, Mumford & Sons, Chris Stapleton and Dave Matthews Band.

The festival features more than 100 artists across five stages, as well as spirits and culinary experiences.

Adding to the headliners are Kacey Musgraves, Foster the People, The Red Clay Strays, Jason Isbell, Hootie & The Blowfish, Counting Crows, The Fray, Goose and more.

Set times are now live on the Bourbon & Beyond website and app.

Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age and Goose will headline Thursday, Sept. 24.

Mumford & Sons, Kacey Musgraves and Foster the People will follow on Friday.

Chris Stapleton, The Red Clay Strays and Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit are set for Saturday, with Dave Matthews Band, Hootie & The Blowfish and Counting Crows closing out the festival on Sunday.

The 2025 edition of the festival saw Noah Kahan, Jack White, Phish, Benson Boone, Sturgill Simpson and the Lumineers. Last year also saw an almost entirely new setup for the festival, shifting to the open parking lots just south and west of Freedom Hall with several turf zones around the main stages and general admission areas to cover concrete.

The 2024 festival also saw free access to 18 rides at Kentucky Kingdom with all festival passes, and an indoor merch booth, as well as more shade, restrooms and space for fans to move around with a larger layout.

Festival packages are already on sale, with single-day passes coming at a later date.
