Sing your heart out to the best UK and international country artists, discover the acts you’ll be talking about next year, and get up close with the music in a way only Buckle & Boots can deliver.

LIVE COUNTRY FROM THE BEST
From the Main Stage, where headline acts and fan favourites deliver the big festival moments, to The Paddock Stage, home to rising stars and songwriter showcases, Buckle & Boots brings together the full spectrum of country music.
Across the weekend, you’ll hear chart-toppers, international artists, Nashville exports, and some of the best UK talent making waves right now – all sharing the same stages, same crowds, and the same love of real country music. It’s the kind of lineup you’ll be talking about long after the lights go down, so don’t miss your chance to be there – tickets are available now.
MORE THAN A FESTIVAL
People come for the music. They come back for the feeling.
For the late-night campsite singalongs, the golden-hour moments in the fields, the artists you meet between sets, and the people you arrive next to on Thursday who feel like festival family by Sunday night.
Buckle & Boots has always been built on more than a line-up. It’s the atmosphere, the welcome, the shared love of country music, and the kind of moments that only happen when everyone is together at Whitebottom Farm.
Whether it’s your first year or your tenth, there’s something about Buckle & Boots that stays with you long after the last song.
Stay Where You Belong
However you like to festival, there’s a space for you here.
- General Camping
Bring your own tent and make yourself at home. You’ll be just a short stroll from the stages, bars, and food traders – close enough to catch the energy.
- Glamping
Prefer a little more comfort? Our pre-pitched bell tents offer that country-chic touch with real beds, lighting, and space to unwind. Book Glamping here.
- Live-In Vehicles
Got your own camper or motorhome? No problem – we’ve got dedicated areas for you too, so you can roll up, park, and relax.
- Off-Site Camping
Our Off-Site camping area for live-in vehicles is a short stroll away through the beautiful Etherow Park – or hop on the Shuttle Bus and you’ll soon be at the heart of the action.
This is what Buckle & Boots sounds like.
Our 2026 playlist brings together artists who joined us for our 10-year celebration, alongside songs that feel right at home under the lights at Whitebottom Farm.
It’s a snapshot of the Buckle & Boots spirit – honest songs, great storytelling and artists who belong on our stage. Stick it on loud, get back in the fields, and start getting into the Buckle & Boots state of mind.
The 2027 playlist will be shared once the new line-up is announced.
