The annual Railbird Festival is ready to take over the Infield at Red Mile in Lexington, Kentucky, from June 1 to 2, 2024, with good music and one unique bourbon experience. This is the event’s fourth installment, and it’s looking to be another great year.
Top billing the first day of the event are indie/folk-pop singer-songwriter, Noah Kahan and the gritty country music band out of eastern Oklahoma, the Turnpike Troubadours. And they’ll be joined by Counting Crows, Wynonna Judd, and Marcus King, along with more blockbuster performers. And for the second day, the multi-awarded country singer Chris Stapleton, and Irish singer-songwriter, Hozier are gracing the stage, with Lord Huron, Dwight Yoakam, and Elle King.
Last year, they featured more than 30 acts on three stages, with Zach Bryan and Tyler Childers as headliners.
