C2C Country to Country once again proved why it remains the beating heart of the UK and Ireland’s country music calendar, delivering a weekend packed with world‑class performances, fan‑favourite moments and the unmistakable sense of community that has defined the festival for more than a decade.
With Zach Top, Keith Urban and Brooks & Dunn headlining this year’s event, fans across London, Glasgow and Belfast were treated to three days of high‑energy sets, surprise collaborations and the kind of sing‑along atmosphere that only C2C can create. From breakout Nashville talent to homegrown UK and European artists, the festival once again showcased the full spectrum of modern country music.
As the final notes faded on Sunday night, C2C wasted no time in giving fans something big to look forward to. Organisers have confirmed that the festival will return from Friday 12 to Sunday 14 March 2027, with a major new development for next year’s edition.
Manchester Joins the Party
In 2027, C2C expands its footprint with the addition of Manchester’s AO Arena, which will host the festival for the very first time. The O2 in London and the OVO Hydro in Glasgow will continue as flagship venues, creating a three‑city celebration that opens the door for even more fans to experience the weekend.
C2C also extended its thanks to Belfast, which has hosted the festival for the past three years.
Earlybird Tickets And Pre‑Sale Access
Earlybird tickets go on general sale Friday 20 March at 10am, with fans encouraged to sign up to the C2C mailing list for access to the AXS Pre‑Sale from Wednesday 18 March at 10am. AXS remains the official ticketing partner for C2C.
Mailing list subscribers will also have the chance to enter a competition to win the ultimate trip to Stagecoach 2027, adding an extra incentive for fans eager to secure their spot early.
A Festival That Defines The UK Country Scene
C2C has grown into a cornerstone of the UK’s live music landscape, drawing tens of thousands of fans each year and consistently delivering a lineup that blends superstar power with rising talent. Its mix of main‑stage spectacles, intimate sessions, songwriter rounds and fan‑driven programming has helped build a loyal community that returns year after year.
Organisers promise that 2027 will continue that tradition, with three days of the best in country music from Nashville, the UK and across Europe. The full lineup will be announced later in the year, alongside further festival news.
For now, fans can look back on another unforgettable weekend and start counting down to March 2027, when C2C returns bigger than ever.
