WHITEFISH — Some big names are returning to Big Mountain Ranch next summer for Under the Big Sky as the Whitefish festival announced its 2027 lineup Thursday. It will be the festival's 8th annual showing.

Zach Bryan is set to headline the music festival again along with Nathaniel Rateliff, who was a headliner when the festival debuted in 2019. They will be joined by Kacey Musgraves, who will appear on Under the Big Sky's stage for the first time.

The headliners are followed by a stacked lineup that includes Sam Barber, Brandon Flowers, the lead singer of The Killers, Midland, Buffalo Traffic Jam, Paul Cauthen, The Dead South, and The Wallflowers, to name just a few.

Zach Bryan is no stranger to Under the Big Sky. Next year will mark his third time playing and second time headlining the three-day festival, which is set for July 16-18. Bryan debuted at the festival in 2022 and was one of the headliners in 2023.

The presale for tickets goes live Friday, Nov. 6 at 10 a.m. The general sale begins that same day at 2 p.m.
