Country Thunder Florida has announced that its 2026 festival is moving to a brand-new location. The event was originally set to take place at the TradeWinds Resort on St. Pete Beach, FL, however a recent update reveals it will be relocating Coachman Park in Clearwater.
Fans who were gearing up for a beachfront festival will still get to experience stunning views of the water on May 8–10 as it is located less than 20 miles from the original site. Fox 13 News reports that the reason for the change was due to various environmental concerns.
“While we are disappointed that Country Thunder Florida will no longer take place on St. Pete Beach, it has been a privilege to work alongside the Country Thunder team throughout this process,” said Travis Johnson, Hotel Manager of TradeWinds Resort. “Ultimately, this decision reflects what is best for the overall logistics and long-term success of the event.”
The first-ever takeover of the 19-acre waterfront venue will include performances from Zach Top, Gavin Adcock, Kane Brown, and more. Alongside the headliners, the festival will also feature Randy Houser, Max McNown, Shaboozey, Dasha, and many more.
“This is about putting on the festival we came here to deliver,” says Country Thunder Executive Director Kim Blevins. “As we moved forward with planning for the festival, it became clear that Clearwater offered the infrastructure and community partnership needed to bring this event to life the right way. Coachman Park gives us the ability to execute our full vision and create an unforgettable experience for fans.”
Organizers say that fans can expect to see Coachman Park transform into a bucket-list festival experience as country music lovers from all over the U.S. come together for three days of nonstop music, and coastal ambiance.
In addition to the music, fans will have the chance to browse cowboy hats and apparel, enjoy a wide range of food offerings, and catch performances on a secondary stage dedicated to rising Sunshine State talent. There will also be a Songwriter Showcase onsite, putting the spotlight on the creatives behind the Main Stage’s biggest hits. Sponsor activations keep the energy going across the grounds and will even offer opportunities for surprise artist meet-and-greets.
“We are excited to introduce Country music fans to beautiful waterfront Coachman Park and to be the new location for Country Thunder,” shares City Manager Jennifer Poirrier. “I’m excited to put on my boots and watch the sunset while listening to some great Country music.”
In lieu of the recent venue change, Country Thunder ticket holders interested in a refund can do so at the original point of purchase.

Miranda Lambert made a major career announcement early Monday morning, revealing that she has signed on to release future music projects with MCA Nashville. She was officially welcomed to the label by the one and only Reba McEntire.
Lambert will now release her music via the MCA imprint, a Nashville-based label that is also home to Reba McEntire, Luke Bryan, Keith Urban, and many more. The move comes after her shift to Republic Records with support from Big Loud, which followed her surprise departure from Sony Music Nashville in 2023.
“Miranda is a generational artist whose influence and artistry continue to shape modern music,” Mike Harris, MCA President & CEO, shared. “We are honored to work alongside her as she enters this next chapter and we look forward to building something truly special together.”
“Throughout my life and career, I have found that the common thread in every chapter is finding the right people – songwriters, musicians, collaborators and team members – to match the moment,” Lambert added. “I am honored to join a roster and a team with such a rich history of championing artistry. I look forward to sharing this new music with the world under their banner.”
To welcome Lambert to the MCA family, McEntire (now Lambert’s labelmate!) gifted her fellow “Trailblazer” with a belt buckle that she originally received from the label in 1975.
“That’s when I first got with MCA,” McEntire revealed.
“That’s my gift to you for being a labelmate,” she added.
Lambert accepted the belt buckle with a smile and joked, “Thank you. You’re the best. We’re label family! We were already family, now we’re label family.”
A true multi-faceted superstar, Miranda Lambert has racked up seven No. 1 solo albums, 10 chart-topping radio hits, more than 80 major awards, and countless RIAA certifications. She’s taken over Las Vegas with her twice-extended Velvet Rodeo residency, pushed genre boundaries through a wide range of collaborations, and even landed a spot on the TIME100 list of the world’s most influential people. As the most-awarded artist in Academy of Country Music history, she’s also among the most-nominated at this year’s ceremony, earning eight nods that highlight her work not just as a performer, but also as a songwriter and producer.
Miranda Lambert also continues to serve as Founder of Big Loud Texas, where she stays hands-on in her partnership and remains deeply involved in developing artists across both the label and its publishing arm.
