Alan Jackson Announces A New Music Festival
Country music legend Alan Jackson has announced a brand-new music festival in partnership with Silverbelly Whiskey and Peachtree Entertainment. 5 O’Clock Somewhere Fest will debut in West Palm Beach, Florida, on June 12-13, 2026.
The inaugural event will take place just two weeks before the final concert of Alan Jackson’s career. The show, named “Last Call: One More for the Road – The Finale,” is scheduled for Saturday, June 27, 2026, at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. While Jackson may be retiring from live touring, he has shown that he will remain active in the country music world.
5 O’Clock Somewhere Fest is an all-ages event and was inspired by the 2003 duet with Jimmy Buffett. The song was a huge hit, spending eight weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and earning one CMA and two ACM awards.
For more than 20 years, the lighthearted tune has been used as a catch phrase for those wanting to call it a day early, kick back, and enjoy a drink. If the song is any indicator, festival attendees can expect an experience centered around good music, good drinks, and good company.
5 O’Clock Somewhere Fest Lineup Announced
On March 25th, the lineup for the first annual 5 O’Clock Somewhere Fest was announced. Ella Langley and Old Dominion are set to headline. Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefer Band, the group that backed the late singer for decades until his death in 2023, will also perform.
The event will feature a mix of new and old country music. Dylan Scott, Clint Black, Shenandoah, John Anderson, Rodney Atkins, Jimmy Buffett, and Allen Stone will round out the lineup.
Tickets will go on sale this Friday, March 27th, at 9 am Eastern. A variety of ticket options are available, including single-day, full weekend, VIP, and more. Prices begin at $155 and will increase as each level sells out. Fans can find additional ticket information and sign up for presale at 5oclocksomewherefest.com.
