Organizers of the Barefoot Country Music Festival have announced the first four headliners for its 2027 return to Wildwood Beach, set for June 17-20, 2027. Carrie Underwood, Florida Georgia Line, Tim McGraw and Riley Green will top the bill at next year’s event.
Underwood, an eight-time Grammy winner known for hits including “Before He Cheats” and “Church Bells,” headlines the group. Florida Georgia Line, which split in 2022, will perform as a reunited duo. Tim McGraw brings decades of hits such as “I Like It, I Love It” and “Live Like You Were Dying,” while Riley Green, known for his duet with Ella Langley on “You Look Like You Love Me,” rounds out the announced acts. Festival organizers have not released additional lineup details and say updates will be posted to the festival’s Instagram account.
Single- and multi-day passes for the four-day festival went on sale as of this week. At the time of the New York Post’s reporting, the lowest price found for a four-day pass was $412 including fees on Vivid Seats, while single-day passes started at $394 including fees — meaning the full festival pass costs only slightly more than a single day’s admission.
The festival, held annually on Wildwood Beach in Cape May County, has built a reputation beyond its musical lineup. Past editions have featured food vendors such as Southern Smoke Show, known for a “Redneck Bowl” combining bacon, mac and cheese and brisket, and Muncheese, which sells loaded cheesesteaks and hot dogs. Other amenities at past festivals have included merchandise tents, interactive displays, VIP private restrooms and beach club access.
A review of the 2025 festival from The Mirror praised the event’s atmosphere, calling it “one of the best music festivals” the outlet’s reviewer had attended, citing surprise appearances, the lineup and the beach setting.
The 2027 festival will mark another installment of an event that has become a fixture of the Jersey Shore’s summer calendar, drawing visitors from across the tristate area to Wildwood for four days of country music on the sand.
