C2C 2027 ANNOUNCES HUGE LINE-UP AS FESTIVAL EXPANDS TO MANCHESTER


Country To Country returns from 12 - 14 March 2027 with Ashley McBryde, Riley Green and Jelly Roll headlining a three-day celebration of country music across London, Glasgow and Manchester.

C2C 2027 is officially taking shape, with the festival announcing a huge line-up for its return next March — and Manchester is joining the C2C family for the very first time.


Taking place from 12th–14th March 2027, C2C will once again bring some of the biggest names in country music together with some of the genre’s most exciting newcomers.


The three headliners are Ashley McBryde, Riley Green and Jelly Roll, with all three artists headlining C2C for the first time.


ASHLEY MCBRYDE, RILEY GREEN & JELLY ROLL

Grammy, CMA and ACM Award winner Ashley McBryde will headline one of the three days, marking another chapter in her C2C journey.


McBryde first appeared at Country To Country in 2018 on the Spotlight Stage, before returning to the UK several times throughout her career. Her 2027 appearance will see her return as a C2C headliner.


Riley Green will also make his C2C headline debut, returning to the UK following his sold-out 2025 tour.


Meanwhile, Jelly Roll is set to make his UK headline debut as he takes his place at the top of the C2C bill.


A HUGE SUPPORTING LINE-UP

The headliners will be joined by a packed supporting line-up featuring:

Cooper Alan, Midland, Cole Swindell, Jackson Dean, Dasha, Chase Matthew, Carter Faith, Emily Ann Roberts, Kashus Culpepper, Blake Whiten, Mack Geiger and Laci Kaye Booth.


And there’s plenty more to discover across the CMA Spotlight Stage, which is expanding in 2027 to appear in all three cities.


The Spotlight Stage line-up includes Late Night Thoughts, Colin Lynch, Chandler Walters, Benny G, Owen Riegling, Jason Scott & The High Heat, Greylan James, Lanie Gardner and Belles.


The stage will showcase emerging country talent inside the main arenas across London, Manchester and Glasgow.


C2C COMES TO MANCHESTER

Perhaps the biggest change for 2027 is the arrival of C2C Manchester.


For the first time, the festival will take place at AO Arena, with additional performances taking place across Manchester city centre at New Century throughout the weekend.


The Manchester event is being supported by Manchester Accommodation BID, while Absolute Radio Country will provide coverage, interviews and highlights from the city.


It marks another major step in C2C’s expansion and reflects the continued growth of country music across the UK.


DOLLY PARTON'S IMAGINATION LIBRARY PARTNERSHIP

C2C has also announced a new partnership with Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library UK.


For C2C 2027, a £1 donation from every day ticket and £2 from every weekend ticket will be added, with the proceeds helping provide books to children aged 0–5 across the UK.


The Imagination Library provides children with a new, age-appropriate book every month, helping to encourage a love of reading from an early age.

The official C2C 2027 presale, powered by AXS, begins at 10am on Wednesday 30th September.

With three first-time headliners, a packed supporting line-up and the festival expanding into Manchester, C2C 2027 looks set to be another major weekend in the UK country music calendar.
