St. Pete Country Fest has set its day-by-day lineup for its second year at Vinoy Park, running November 20 to 22 with Koe Wetzel, Riley Green and Bailey Zimmerman each headlining one night. The festival puts more than 50 acts across five stages over the three days, and its own by-day card is the first place the full order of play has been laid out.
Three nights, three headliners
Koe Wetzel closes Friday, November 20. Stephen Wilson Jr., Ernest and Charles Wesley Godwin sit directly beneath him on the card, followed by Josh Ross, Buffalo Traffic Jam, Laci Kaye Booth and Sons of Habit. Friday's lower tiers add Joe Jordan, Luke Rob, Piper Landon, Matt Billor, Lawson Knight, Aniston Pate, Leanne McGroary and Justin Jeansonne.
Riley Green headlines Saturday, November 21. Tucker Wetmore, Cameron Whitcomb and Chase Matthew take the second line, with Evan Honer, Zach John King, Noah Rinker, Hannah McFarland and Max Alan beneath them. Clay Street Unit, billed as a duo, plays alongside Slater Nalley, Dani Rose and Brett Landin, and the day closes out with Scoot Teasley, Donny Van Slee, Paisley Howell and Reece.
Bailey Zimmerman closes the festival on Sunday, November 22. Warren Zeiders, Dylan Gossett and Corey Kent hold the second line, then Pecos and the Rooftops, Tyler Nance, The Jack Wharff Band, Jason Scott and the High Heat and Phil Kane. Kenny Whitmire, Nathan Bess, Ashley Walls, Emmet Stevens Jr., Ethan Carl, Zach Haywood, Roc Helton and Brianna Langford round out Sunday.
DJ Slim McGraw is the one act billed across all three days, listed under an all-weekend header rather than on any single night.
The waterfront site
Vinoy Park sits on the water at the north end of downtown St. Petersburg, part of the two-mile stretch of public waterfront that runs along the downtown shore. The park held the festival's first edition in 2025, and the second year keeps the same ground, with five stages spread across it for the weekend.
Braxton Wilson, the festival's founder and the president of Palmetto Entertainment, tied the second year to the first in the festival's lineup-announcement release. "The response to our first year exceeded every expectation we had," he said. "Selling out in our inaugural year was an incredible milestone, but what excites us even more is seeing the momentum continue into Year Two." Fans, he said, have embraced "the waterfront setting, the depth of the lineup" and "the sense of community that exists all weekend long." The sellout and the momentum are his account of year one; the festival has not published attendance figures.
Gate times and a running order have not been published. The festival says the schedule will be posted to its site; for now the lineup broken out by day is what the card carries.
Sponsors and tickets
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Tampa is the presenting sponsor, with its name set directly under the festival's on the lineup card. Bartow Ford carries a secondary credit in the card's footer, under a "driven by" line.
Organizers describe one-day general admission tickets as limited and on sale now. The festival has not said how many remain or whether three-day passes are still available. Country Central, which reported the lineup ahead of the card, describes the three headliners as topping the bill on separate nights.
Tickets and the full card are at stpetecountryfest.com.
