Country To Country Adds To 2026 Lineup With The Bluebird Cafe, Song Suffragettes & More
Country To Country 2026 has announced that the Bluebird Cafe, Song Suffragettes and the Official Afterparties are all part of the lineup of events for this year’s festival, which returns to The O2 in London on March 13-15.
The Bluebird Cafe is celebrating 10 years at Country to Country in 2026. The seated show in the intimate O2 Blueroom will be a songwriter’s round, with each artist taking turns to talk about their relationship with The Bluebird, their songwriting, and the stories behind their music. Over three shows, Emily Ann Roberts, Aaron Raitiere, McCoy Moore, Jade Bird, Mae Estes, Tyce Delk, Meg McRee, Liam St John and Jeff Cohen will perform. The special events go on sale to the general public on Jan. 30 via c2c-countrytocountry.com.
“Celebrating a decade of The Bluebird Cafe at Country to Country is a testament to the enduring power of the Nashville songwriting community and the dedication of our UK audience that believes in the power of original music,” says Erika Nichols (President/GM, Bluebird Cafe). Over the last 10 years, we’ve watched our shows become a cornerstone of the C2C experience, providing a platform for both legendary writers and the next generation of talent. We are so proud of this partnership and the way it continues to foster a deep connection between artist and audience.”
In addition, the Song Suffragettes will host a songwriters round in London on March 15. Taking place at the O2 Blueroom, Alyssa Flaherty, Georgia Ku, Hannah McFarland and Maya Lane will perform. Song Suffragettes is the all-female country showcase that takes place every Monday night at The Listening Room Cafe in Nashville.
A favorite among C2C fans, The Official Afterparties also return in 2026. These special performances followed by a DJ set keep the party going after the main stage headliner has finished. Taking place in Indigo at The O2, Emily Ann Roberts performs on March 13, Jackson Dean on March 14, and Ashley Cooke on March 15. The sets will be followed each night by Rattlesnake Johnny, spinning country favorites until the evening wraps.
Jackson Dean has also been confirmed to co-host the main stage alongside Bob Harris OBE, introducing each artist before their performance. The festival stage artists and more are yet to be announced, and these special events go on sale Jan. 30 via c2c-countrytocountry.com.
