Dynamic details for the currently selected stop update as the show gets closer.

1 of 8 date. Outdoor, multi-stage.

Dates — 3 of 7 tour dates
Format — Outdoor, multi-stage. The artist may not be the only act — festival tickets cover the full event.
Weather — Weather is a major factor. Check the forecast for every day. Bring sunscreen, hat, layers for evening, and comfortable shoes.
Bag policy — Festival bag policies are strict — usually clear bags or small clutches only.
Arrival — Allow extra time for entry. Festival security lines are longer than single-show venues. Shuttles or designated parking may be available.
Essentials — Bring a portable charger (cell service is often poor with large crowds). Most festivals allow empty water bottles. Stay hydrated.
What to wear — Comfort first. Broken-in shoes (you'll walk miles between stages). Layers for temperature swings. Hat and sunscreen. Clothes you don't mind getting dusty or muddy.
Boots and Hearts Music Festival 2026

1 of 8 date. Outdoor venue — weather directly affects the show and does not cancel it.

Dates — 1 of 7 tour date
Bag policy — Most amphitheaters enforce a clear bag policy. Maximum size is typically 12" x 6" x 12". Non-clear clutches must be smaller than 6" x 4". No backpacks, no multi-pocket bags.
Sun and heat — Summer dates average 85°F to 96°F. The sun does not set until 8:00-8:30 PM for most dates. Bring sunscreen, a hat, and water. Sunburn is the #1 regret at amphitheater shows.
Rain — If rain is in the forecast, bring a poncho. Umbrellas are not allowed in seating areas at most amphitheaters.
Arrival — Arrive 90 minutes early. Amphitheater parking lots typically have one or two access roads. Traffic backs up within 60 minutes of doors.
Pavilion vs lawn — Pavilion has assigned seats under a roof. Lawn is general admission, first-come-first-served, no shade. If you have lawn seats, arrive early for a good spot and bring a blanket if allowed.
Earplugs — Amphitheater acoustics bounce sound off the pavilion roof. Lawn can be louder than expected. Earplugs recommended, especially in the pavilion.
What to wear — Dress for the weather. Layers are essential — warm during the day, cool at night. Comfortable shoes (you'll walk from parking). Sunscreen and a hat for daytime. Light rain jacket or poncho if rain is forecast.
