Northern Wisconsin’s 2026 ‘Concert In The Corn’ Lineup Headlined By Pair Of Grand Ole Opry Members

The summer outdoor concert season continues to fill up, with lots of great shows coming to the region this year. Northern Wisconsin's "Concert in the Corn" music festival is another one on the list!

The festival, hosted in the small Northern Wisconsin town of Mason, just a short drive south of Ashland, Wisconsin, has been growing each year since its first year in 2021.

Some of the acts that have played at this Northland country music festival include names like Justin Moore, Chris Janson, Randy Houser, Sara Evans, Joe Nichols, Gabby Barrett, and Big & Rich. This year's lineup brings more star power to Wisconsin's northwoods in August.

The 2026 Concert in the Corn is scheduled for the end of August, with a kick-off party on Wednesday, August 26, before the three-day festival gets into full swing from Thursday, August 27, through Saturday, August 29.
