RodeoHouston has announced its 2026 artist lineup set to perform at NRG Stadium March 2–22.

Luke Bryan and Tim McGraw are among the longtime returning performers, marking McGraw’s 11th performance and Bryan’s 13th, after receiving a distinguished Star Trail of Fame induction in 2025. Three entertainers are returning this year for the first time in over 20 years: Dwight Yoakam (last appeared in 2004), Kelly Clarkson (2004), and Cross Canadian Ragweed (2006). Riley Green returns for his second consecutive year, and female artists performing in 2026 include Lizzo, Megan Moroney, Clarkson and Lainey Wilson.

Latin artists J Balvin and Pepe Aguilar. are also on this year’s bill, and Aguilar will take the star stage on Go Tejano Day immediately after the Go Tejano Mariachi Invitational Championship. Nine artists will also make their star stage debut in 2026, including Russell Dickerson, Lizzo, Forrest Frank, Megan Moroney, Creed, Shaboozey, Aguilar, Red Clay Strays and Koe Wetzel. Dickerson surprised fans earlier this week with a pop-up performance in Times Square, performing with a full band in front of thousands of people at the iconic Manhattan location at the RodeoHouston Times Square takeover.

Cody Johnson will perform on the 21st with openers Jon Pardi and Randy Houser. Johnson’s concert-only performance is set for March 22, and marks the fourth concert-only performance at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. There is no rodeo scheduled before the Cody Johnson concert, but all activities including carnival, livestock and horse show competitions and other exhibits/attractions will be open on March 22. Tickets for this concert-only evening are on sale now through the Rodeo’s official ticket provider, AXS, at rodeohouston.com/tickets/.
