Field of Dreams Announces 2026 Labor Day Weekend Concert Headliners

The Field of Dreams Movie Site in Dyersville has announced their concert headliners for its 2026 Labor Day weekend Velocity Festival.

Country superstar Carrie Underwood will headline on Saturday night, September 5th. The weekend also includes two rock acts, with Shinedown headlining on Friday night, September 4th and Creed on Sunday night, September 6th.

Tickets will go on sale exclusively through EASOL at 10 am on Friday, November 21st at velocityfest.live. All concert information can be found at usca.live.

Following the success of the 2025 inaugural concerts featuring Tim McGraw and Nickelback, the concerts have been expanded to a three-day event. The 2025 Velocity Festival drew more than 35,000 fans to Dyersville for the first major multi-day music festival ever held on the Field of Dreams site and generated more than eleven million dollars in economic impact for the region. The inaugural weekend featured a sold-out Tim McGraw Live at Field of Dreams event that included a heartfelt tribute to his father, MLB legend Tug McGraw, and a high energy Velocity Music Festival headlined by Nickelback, highlighted by a surprise duet with Brantley Gilbert and a fireworks finale.

In total, the two-day event drove more than 6,500 hotel and Airbnb bookings, filled local businesses across eastern Iowa and firmly established the Field of Dreams as a nationally recognized live entertainment destination.

The concerts will be presented by US Concert Agency (USCA). Founder and CEO Nick Abate says they knew this event would be something special, but the impact on the local economy blew their expectations out of the water. He says last year proved that Field of Dreams is not only an iconic film location, but a world class live entertainment venue. And in 2026, they’re taking this experience to an even higher level.

The Field of Dreams Movie Site is owned and operated by Dyersville Events, Inc., a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization. Dyersville Events, Inc. is leading the effort to preserve and expand the iconic 297-acre Field of Dreams site.
