Rock The Country & Pepsi Rock The South Announce 2025 Lineups

November 12, 2024/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Rock the Country and Pepsi Rock the South are back for 2025, with Kid Rock and Nickelback headlining both festivals.

The festivals will make stops through 11 small towns across America, kicking off on April 4-5 in Livingston, Louisiana. The 11-city tour will feature varying artists per stop including Hank Williams Jr., Lynyrd Skynyrd, 3 Doors Down, Travis Tritt, Gavin Adcock, Tracy Lawrence, Aaron Lewis and The Stateliners, Ella Langley, Upchurch, Diamond Rio, Little Texas, Them Dirty Roses and many more, and will also include a ’90s Happy Hour at Rock The Country including Shenandoah, Mark Chesnutt, Jo Dee Messina, Sammy Kershaw, Deana Carter, Afroman, Ying Yang Twins, Tone Loc and Dee Jay Silver.

Pepsi Rock The South, the flagship event held in Cullman, Alabama, returns for its 13th year as the inspiration and foundation of Rock The Country. Building on its success, Rock The Country now expands to 10 festival dates nationwide, revisiting four markets from 2024 while adding six new locations: Livingston, Louisiana; Knoxville, Tennessee, York, Pennsylvania; Hastings, Michigan; Little Rock, Arkansas and Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

“It’s this simple, Rock The Country isn’t just a music festival, it’s a movement.” says Kid Rock “It’s a place for hard working, god-fearing patriots to gather as one and celebrate freedom, music and the party of the year.”

Presale tickets for Rock The Country and Pepsi Rock The South begin today, (Nov. 12) with past purchasers and email subscribers getting the first chance at tickets. Public on-sale begins Nov. 15.

Festival organizers Peachtree Entertainment has also teamed up with Folds of Honor, a nonprofit that provides educational scholarships to the children and spouses of America’s fallen or disabled military service members and first responders, to gather donations upon ticket purchase. All donations will go towards local organizations in Cullman as well as organizations such as Folds of Honor in support of our veterans.

In addition, Rock The Country has also officially launched their 2025 Hometown Hero campaign where local residents can nominate someone who goes above and beyond in serving their community every day. The winner of the Rock The Country 2025 Hometown Hero in each market will receive the ultimate VIP experience at their local show, including a backstage tour and the opportunity to lead the Pledge of Allegiance on stage.
