Keith Urban, Toby Keith, Brooks & Dunn and Sugarland will headline the 2010 Stagecoach country music festival, to be held April 24-25 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif.
Additional performers on the country, folk and bluegrass-heavy lineup include Billy Currington, Gary Allan, Phil Vassar, Merle Haggard, Carlene Carter, the Oak Ridge Boys, Mallary Hope, Ray Price, Jamey Johnson, the Avett Brothers and Bobby Bare, among others.
Tickets for Stagecoach start at $99 for two-day passes and will be available Oct. 16 through Ticketmaster and stagecoachfestival.com.
The 2009 Stagecoach festival grossed $6 million and drew more than 79,000 fans, according to Billboard Boxscore. Last year's event featured such acts as Brad Paisley, Kid Rock and Miranda Lambert.
The 2010 Stagecoach will mark the return of headliners Sugarland and Brooks & Dunn, who both performed at the first-ever Stagecoach in 2007. The gig will also be one of Brooks & Dunn's last concerts, as the country duo plans to split next year after a farewell tour.
Stagecoach is produced by Goldenvoice, The Messina Group and Moore Entertainment Group, and is presented by ABC Daytime and SOAPnet.
Meanwhile, next year's Coachella festival in Indio will once again take place on the weekend before Stagecoach (April 16-18), sources confirm to Billboard.biz. The recently reunited alt-rock band Pavement is rumored to be one the headliners.
