Stagecoach Festival Lineup - Country Comes to California

Located at the same venue as Coachella, the Stagecoach festival brings in some of the best talent the country music genre has to offer. After a successful first run in 2007, the festival is back for three nights in early may (May 2, 3, and 4) and will feature the Eagles, Rascal Flatts, Tim McGraw, and many more of the nation's most popular country music artists.

More than 55,000 people attended the 2007 installment, and the festival was hailed by many as the best country festival in the U.S. This year Goldenvoice Presents, the promotion company for both Coachella and Stagecoach, have extended the festival to three days and invited over 50 artists to play. In addition to the music, festivalgoers can peruse the wide variety of art and country music memorabilia or participate in saddlemaking, blacksmithing, and rodeo.

Single-day tickets will run you $95, while 3-day General Admission tickets are $249. For more information, check out the Stagecoach website.
