Boots in the Park returns to Albuquerque this weekend with its biggest edition yet. The two-day country music festival takes over Balloon Fiesta Park on Friday, May 15, and Saturday, May 16, bringing together major country headliners, crossover stars, Texas country favorites, and thousands of fans for what has quickly become one of the Southwest’s fastest-growing live music events.
Leading the 2026 lineup are Jelly Roll and Post Malone. Festival organizers have also expanded the experience this year with multiple stages, immersive fan activations, whiskey and tequila tastings, local food vendors, and a dedicated Texas Country Stage spotlighting more roots-driven acts throughout the weekend.
Friday’s schedule leans heavily into contemporary country and country-rock crossover sounds. Jelly Roll closes the main stage. Earlier in the evening, fans can catch performances from Koe Wetzel, and Mitchell Tenpenny.
Saturday closes the festival with Post Malone headlining what is expected to be the event’s largest crowd of the weekend. Tyler Hubbard and Jessie Murph joins Saturday’s lineup as two of the biggest names supporting the main stage bill, while longtime Texas country staples Randy Rogers Band, Cody Jinks, Clay Walker, and Josh Abbott Band anchor the festival’s second-stage programming.
