PRESS RELEASE

WILDWOOD - Barefoot Country Music Fest (BCMF), the Northeast's largest outdoor country music celebration, has announced the first headliner for the 2026 event: Post Malone.

Known for rewriting history, breaking records and blurring the boundaries of genre, the 9x diamond-certified, GRAMMY Award-nominated artist will bring his chart-topping catalog and high-energy live performances to Wildwood, NJ when BCMF returns June 18-21, 2026.

Post Malone is fresh off The Big Ass Stadium Tour after the release of his debut country album, F-1 Trillion. The album debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 and has already produced major hits including "Guy For That" featuring Luke Combs, "Pour Me A Drink" featuring Blake Sheldon, and the mega-smash "I Had Some Help" with Morgan Wallen.

Upon release, "I Had Some Help" debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, earning "the highest weekly sales and streams since 2020" and holding the top spot for six consecutive weeks. The critically acclaimed projects, combined with collaborations with Beyonce and Taylor Swift, earned Post eight 2025 GRAMMY nominations.

His genre-bending catalog features a long list of diamond-certified anthems, including "rockstar" (featuring 21 Savage), "I Fall Apart," "Psycho" (featuring Ty Dolla $ign), "White Iverson," "Better Now," "Congratulations" (featuring Quavo), "Circles" and "Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse)," which became the highest-certified single in RIAA history as the first track to reach double diamond status.

With multiple record-breaking tours, healing sets at festivals like Coachella, and one of the most unique voices in music, Post Malone continues to stand as one of the most influential artists of his generation. 

"Post Malone is one of the biggest superstars in the world, and we're proud to bring him to BCMF for 2026," said Bob Durkin, co-founder of Southern Entertainment, producers of BCMF. "His new country album has taken the industry by storm. This is just the beginning of an incredible lineup we're building for next summer."

Recognized as one of the premier destination festivals in the country, BCMF has earned national media attention from outlets like USA Today, Billboard and Rolling Stone. With multiple sellouts in its first five years, the fest has quickly become a bucket-list experience, drawing tens of thousands of fans from across the United States and beyond to the Jersey Shore each summer. 

Post Malone is the first of four superstar headliners to be announced, with more artists to follow in the coming weeks.
