ReStagecoach 2027 Lineup: Garth Brooks, Riley Green and Zach Top to Headline
Garth Brooks, Riley Green and Zach Top will headline Stagecoach 2027 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, with a reunited Florida Georgia Line set for a special late-night performance.
Garth Brooks, Riley Green and Zach Top will headline Stagecoach 2027, the annual country music festival returning to the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California, next April. Organizers announced the lineup on Monday, positioning Brooks as the marquee name atop a bill that mixes a country music legend with two of the genre's fastest-rising stars.
The most closely watched addition is a reunited Florida Georgia Line, booked for a special late-night set. The performance marks the duo's first officially announced show since Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard went their separate ways, and it gives the festival a headline moment that extends well beyond the standard main-stage rotation.
Brooks remains one of the best-selling solo artists in American music history and a rare festival draw, having largely stayed off the road for extended stretches in recent years. His presence at Stagecoach gives the event a legacy anchor, while Green and Top represent the current commercial and critical momentum in country music. Green has become a reliable chart presence, and Top has drawn attention for a traditional-leaning sound that has resonated with younger audiences.
Stagecoach has long served as the West Coast's flagship country music gathering, held each spring at the same Indio site that hosts the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. The festival typically combines mainstream country headliners with Americana, roots and crossover acts across multiple stages, and the late-night sets have become a signature part of its identity.
The 2027 edition will arrive with country music in a particularly strong commercial phase, as streaming, touring and crossover collaborations have pushed the genre deeper into the mainstream. Festival lineups have become a key indicator of which artists the industry expects to carry the next cycle, and the combination of Brooks, Green and Top reflects an attempt to bridge generations of listeners.
Florida Georgia Line's reunion set adds a second layer of interest. The duo helped define country's pop-facing era in the 2010s with a string of hit singles and collaborations, and their split left fans speculating about whether and when they might perform together again. A Stagecoach late-night slot gives them a high-profile, controlled setting for that return.
Additional performers and ticket details are expected to be announced in the coming months. Stagecoach traditionally draws tens of thousands of attendees to the Coachella Valley, and the lineup reveal is one of the most anticipated moments on the country music calendar each year.
For now, the 2027 bill gives the festival a clear identity: a veteran headliner with broad appeal, a rising star in Green, a breakout traditionalist in Top, and a reunion that will likely dominate conversation around the event. The festival is scheduled to take place next April in Indio.
