Morgan Wallen will headline the 2027 Sand in My Boots festival in Gulf Shores, Alabama, alongside Ella Langley and Kings of Leon. The three-day event is scheduled for May 21 through May 23 next year.
Three-day tickets went on sale on Friday with a starting price of $676.87. Organizers are not selling single-day passes for the event. The lineup features a mix of country acts and other genres, including Kygo, Empire of the Sun, Nelly, and Flo Rida.
Additional performers announced for the 2027 schedule include Gavin Adcock, Koe Wetzel, Cole Swindell, and Third Eye Blind. Hip-hop artists Gucci Mane, Rick Ross, Juicy J, and Project Pat are also on the roster. The festival is curated by Wallen, who steers the programming toward country music.
This year's event marks the second iteration of the festival, which evolved from the Hangout Music Festival that closed in 2024. The Sand in My Boots brand took a hiatus in 2026 before returning to the Gulf Shores beach next spring.
The festival has driven millions of dollars in economic impact for the city since its inception. However, Wallen's involvement has drawn criticism from some fans following a 2021 video in which he used a racial slur. The 2027 lineup includes a diverse group of acts such as Midland, Corey Kent, and Ying Yang Twins.
