Oshkosh residents and visitors have a new reason to mark their calendars for next summer. The XRoads41 Music Festival, set for August 12‑14, 2027, has added country‑music favorite Sam Hunt and pop‑R&B hit‑maker Jason Derulo as the Thursday, August 12 headliners.
Expanded lineup builds on already strong roster
Earlier this year the festival announced Florida‑Georgia Line for Friday, August 13, and Tim McGraw for Saturday, August 14. The addition of Hunt and Derulo rounds out a three‑day slate that also includes electronic duo Two Friends and rising country artist Stephen Wilson Jr.
Ticket options and payment plan
Three‑day passes and on‑site camping are on sale now at XRoads41.com. Early‑bird pricing ends at noon on Oct. 30, after which all ticket prices will increase. For families and budget‑conscious fans, the festival offers a zero‑interest payment plan that lets purchasers lock in a three‑day ticket with as little as $20 down.
What to expect at the festival
Located on the shores of Lake Winnebago, the XRoads41 site provides ample space for camping, food vendors, and a variety of activities beyond the music. Attendees can look forward to multiple stages, a family‑friendly atmosphere, and opportunities to explore local businesses in downtown Oshkosh before and after the concerts.
Community impact
Festival organizers project that XRoads41 will draw thousands of visitors to the city, boosting hotel occupancy, restaurant sales, and local retail. The event aligns with Oshkosh’s ongoing efforts to promote tourism and showcase the region’s vibrant cultural scene.
How to stay informed
Fans should monitor the official website for updates on the lineup, parking details, and any health or safety guidelines that may be in place as the event approaches. Social media channels will also provide real‑time announcements and behind‑the‑scenes content.
With a blend of country hits, pop anthems, and electronic beats, XRoads41 promises a diverse musical experience for a wide audience.
