The Barefoot Country Music Fest announced Friday that Eric Church will be one of the superstar headliners for the 2026 show.
Billed as the largest outdoor country music celebration in the Northeast, the BCMF will be held on the Wildwood beachfront on June 18-21.
Last week, Post Malone was the first of four superstar headliners to be announced. Eric Church is the second. More artists will be revealed in the coming weeks.
Known to his fans as “The Chief,” Church is considered one of the most respected names in country music and an absolute force on stage.
“From his marathon live shows that run hours deep to his legendary catalog packed with hits like “Springsteen,” “Drink in My Hand,” “Talladega,” and “Record Year,” this is the kind of headliner that defines BCM,” the show’s organizers said in a statement announcing Church’s gig.
Church’s most recent project, the critically acclaimed Heart & Soul triple album, included his Gold-certified No. 1 “Hell of a View,” Top 5 hit “Heart On Fire,” and his newest single “Doing Life With Me” climbing the charts now.
Barefoot Country Music Fest has earned national media attention with multiple sellouts in its first five years in Wildwood. It has drawn tens of thousands of fans from across the U.S. and beyond to the Jersey Shore each summer.
