The 2026 Railbird Music Festival lineup has been released, and the headliner is a lauded Kentucky musician that will surely draw a large crowd.
On Monday, Railbird announced Tyler Childers will headline the popular music festival, which is scheduled to take place June 6 and 7 at The Infield at Red Mile.
Zach Top and Ella Langley will perform before Childers on the festival’s final day, while The Lumineers will headline the first day of the festival.
The music festival will feature more than 30 artists across three stages. Other notable performers include Caamp, Mt. Joy and many more.
Tickets are scheduled to go on sale at noon Wednesday. Two-day general admission tickets cost $265, but the price will increase one hour after tickets are released.
There are other ticket options available, such as one-day general admission passes, general admission plus, VIP platinum and superfecta ticket packages.
Tickets can be purchased on Railbird’s website. Fans can also sign up for text message alerts when tickets go sale on the website.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
