Morgan Wallen to Launch Sand in My Boots Festival in Alabama in 2025

Morgan Wallen is set to bring his own music festival to the beaches of Gulf Shores, Ala., next year, when the 15-time Billboard Music Awards winner launches his three-day Sand in My Boots Festival running May 16-18, 2025. Wallen has teamed with AEG Presents (producers of Stagecoach, California’s Country Music Festival and Hangout Music Festival) and the Hangout Festival to hold his event at the same site that hosts the annual Hangout Festival.

The full talent lineup and ticketing details for Wallen’s Sand in My Boots Festival will be revealed in coming weeks, but the lineup will be multi-genre and will feature some of the country star’s closest friends, favorite artists and musicians he has always wanted to perform with. The festival shares its name with Wallen’s 2022 No. 1 Billboard Country Airplay hit.

Wallen said in a video posted on social media, “Morgan Wallen here to share some exciting news me and my team have been working on for a while for y’all. We’re heading south to the beaches of Gulf Shores, Alabama and I’m bringing some good friends with me. Mark your calendars for May 16 – 18, 2025 for the Sand In My Boots Fest. Stay tuned and we’ll get you some more info soon!”

Stacy Vee, executive vp of Goldenvoice and Producer of Stagecoach, said in a statement, “Creating a Festival with Morgan has been a dream come true … and some of the most fun I have ever had booking a show! I can’t wait for fans to come and experience one of the most eclectic and electric lineups and on-site experiences the world has ever seen.”

AEG Presents and Hangout Festival Producer Reeves Price added, “The opportunity to bring Morgan’s world to life on the beach in Gulf Shores is something very special. The fact that it coincides with the 15th anniversary of the Hangout Festival only makes it more special. We can’t wait to see everyone back on the beach in May.”

The upcoming Sand in My Boots festival isn’t the only festival Wallen has had a hand in spearheading recently. Earlier this year, he and Eric Church teamed up to launch and curate the Field & Stream Music Festival, which had been slated for Oct. 4-6 in Winnsboro, S.C., with a lineup to include Church, Lainey Wilson and ZZ Top. However, the inaugural festival had to be postponed due to the widespread damage of Hurricane Helene. The Field & Stream Music Festival is part of Wallen and Church’s acquisition of the outdoor lifestyle brand Field & Stream, announced earlier this year.
