Sand in My Boots 2027 at a glance

Sand in My Boots is Morgan Wallen's own beach festival — three days on the sand in Gulf Shores, Alabama, on the site that used to host Hangout Fest. Wallen, Kings of Leon and Ella Langley top the 2027 bill, with Kygo, Nelly and a run of Southern rap acts mixed in. It's the pick for a country weekend that doesn't stay in one lane.

The lineup by the numbers

33 artists are on the bill across 3 days and 2 stages at Gulf Shores Public Beach: 3 headliners, 10 major acts, and 20 on the undercard. By primary genre, the biggest groups are Country (21), Southern Rap (4), Hip-Hop (3), and Alt Rock (2). The Genre Guide goes through every one of them.

The festival hasn't published which day each act plays yet, so every artist is listed as Day TBA for now. The headliners are Morgan Wallen, Ella Langley, and Kings of Leon.
