Much-loved duo Tigirlily Gold have been announced as the final addition to the stacked Highways Festival 2026 line-up, with the ‘I Tried a Ring On’ hitmakers joining Carly Pearce, Jon Pardi, Emmylou Harris, Corey Kent and more on this year's stellar bill.
Also confirmed today (Wednesday, January 21st) for the fourth instalment of the Royal Albert Hall's country music extravaganza is the Songwriters Round line-up, which once again takes place in the Elgar Room and will feature Bec O'Malley, Jack Van Cleaf, Kaitlin Butts and Tigirlily Gold. The showcase will be hosted by Ben Earle.
Similarly, UK country-pop group the First Time Flyers have been unveiled as the hosts of the Country For Kids event, which always proves a popular feature of the Highways weekend.
Lastly, Rattlesnake Johnny has been revealed as the DJ for the Official After Party, which will enable fans to soak up stellar country tunes long into the night after the main sets finish.
Fans will be looking forward to hearing Tigirlily Gold perform a host of tracks from across their burgeoning discography, with many continuing to tip the North Dakota duo as future stars in the genre, following their lauded debut album, Blonde, in 2024.
They'll be performing on Carly Pearce's day at Highways Festival, and we'll be keeping our fingers crossed Pearce brings out Tigirlily Gold for a stunning duet during her headline set.
Highways 2026 takes place at the Royal Albert Hall across May 15th to 17th, with the festival expanding into a three-day event for the first time this year. In 2025, Eric Church delivered two memorable back-to-back performances, with The Chief's spellbinding, career-spanning sets concluding with the rousing introduction of a choir.
