The world’s largest bourbon, food, and music festival is set to return in Kentucky on September 24-27, with its largest lineup yet. The full list includes over a hundred artists spread out between five stages, including top names like Foo Fighters, Mumford & Sons, Foster the People, The Fray, Chris Stapleton, The Red Clay Strays, Dave Matthews Band, Hootie & the Blowfish, and many others.

The festival attendees will have free access to the amusement park Kentucky Kingdom, which will be open exclusively for the B&B goers. Bourbon & Beyond is also rolling out a new Fork & Flask curated by Kroger experience, highlighting bold food and spirits pairings, and showcasing a diverse lineup of local restaurants and standout bars.

“Bourbon & Beyond captures the spirit of Kentucky like no other music festival,” said David S. Beck, President & CEO of Kentucky Venues. “Last year’s move to the heart of the Kentucky Exposition Center set a new standard, and together with Danny Wimmer Presents, we’re proving the Commonwealth is the premier destination for world-class events.”
