Sand in My Boots festival
The new festival has a wide variety of genres on its lineup with artists described as “Wallen’s closest friends, favorite artists, those who have inspired him, and that he has always wanted to perform with.” Some of those names include:
- Post Malone
- Brooks & Dunn
- 3 Doors Down
- The War on Drugs
- T-Pain
- Wiz Khalifa
- 2 Chainz
- Riley Green
- Real Estate
Morgan Wallen will headline the festival. You can see the full lineup included any updates on the festival’s website.
Wallen has seen his popularity rise in recent years despite a 2021 video of him using a racial slur. Months later, he posted a statement and issued an apology while also donating money to the Black Music Action Coalition.
One Thing at a Time, Wallen’s newest album, was released in 2023.
Hangout Music Festival
The new festival is set to take place the same weekend the Hangout Music Festival has taken place in previous years.
There has been no announcement for a 2025 Hangout Music Festival yet, seemingly indicating this new festival will take its spot. However, that news has not been confirmed by festival organizers.
Note: We have reached out to the festival organizers for comment. This story will be updated when they respond.
