The Woodlands Resort’s inaugural Songwriters Festival, a three-day celebration of music, cuisine and creativity, is set to take place in the Houston area over New Year’s Eve Dec. 29-Jan. 1.

The new festival will feature a lineup that includes Neal McCoy, Darryl Worley and The Frontmen. The festival opens in true Texas style with a night of music, storytelling, and Southern hospitality with an exclusive VIP reception featuring seasonal small bites followed by an intimate performance from Darryl Worley.

Dec. 30 is filled with songwriter sessions and live showcases from a celebrated roster of artists like Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Jamie O’Neal, Bridgette Tatum, Casey Beathard, Brice Long, Bobby Tomberlin and Wynn Varble, sharing the stories behind their most iconic hits. VIP guests enjoy private receptions with bourbon and tequila pairings, featuring elevated plates and the evening performance is led by The Frontmen.

On Dec. 31 guests will enjoy electric performances, intimate storytelling sets, and festive dining experiences culminating in the Boots & Bubbles New Year’s Eve Celebration. Neal McCoy will take the stage for a performance and lead the countdown to 2026 with music, laughter, and a spectacular aerial display.

Jan. 1 kicks off with a New Year’s Day Jazz Brunch in the Grand Ballroom—a soulful finale featuring a 14-piece live jazz band and a spread of seasonal favorites. Single event tickets start at $160, and packages include full-day and all-weekend options. The hotel is offering special rates for those coming to town for the festival as well, and tickets are available at events.woodlandsresort.com/songwriters-festival.
