We’re Ready For Bourbon and Beyond Festival

Bourbon and Beyond has been announced, and this year is already looking like the best one so far. The festival has pulled all the stops to make this the biggest Bourbon and Beyond yet, and for a festival known for its incredible and diverse lineups as well as unbelievable bourbon and food pairings to try, that’s really saying something! First off, over 100 artists will be performing across 5 stages, and you won’t believe the variety they’ve got this year. It really feels like they’ve got something for everybody. Every time I go back and look at the lineup, I discover another must see band and even more that I’m excited to discover soon.  

Let’s look at what incredible artists are on the lineup for this year. For the big names, we’ve got Foo Fighters, 15-time Grammy winners who need no introduction, along with Kentucky native Chris Stapleton, and Mumford and Sons returning to Louisville for the first time in almost 10 years. We’ve also got the legendary lineup of Hootie and the Blowfish returning to Kentucky for the first time in over 20 years! Some other highlights personally are The Flaming Lips, Lindsey Stirling, Goose, Of Monsters and Men, Portugal. The Man, Jason Isbell, Violent Femmes, and so many more. Take some time to look over the lineup for yourself, because there are too many for me to list  

Tickets are already on sale, so get them now! Limited quantities of VIP passes with viewing areas and more are available. Students can get discounted passes with a valid .edu address, and reduced passes are available for military personnel, nurses, firefighters, and police are available too. Camping is available, and my favorite way to fully experience a music festival, but hotel packages are also highly recommended and come with a convenient shuttle to the venue.
