IT’S OFFICIAL. The 2026 Boots and Hearts Music Festival lineup is now complete — and it just got a whole lot bigger.

Global superstars Jonas Brothers have been announced as Friday night headliners for the August 7–9 weekend at Burl’s Creek Event Grounds in Oro-Medonte.

Yes. That Jonas Brothers.

And in a major twist? This will mark their first-ever country music festival appearance.

A Big Year for Boots and Hearts

2026 isn’t just another year at Boots. It’s the festival’s 15th anniversary, and Republic Live clearly wanted to make a statement.

The Jonas Brothers join an already stacked weekend featuring:

Saturday (Aug 8): The Chicks
Sunday (Aug 9): Rascal Flatts

That means three nights of arena- and stadium-level headliners sharing one festival bill.

Not bad for Canada’s largest country music and camping festival.

While some fans raised eyebrows when the festival shifted to a three-day format this year, this lineup makes one thing clear — they’re going big where it counts.

Why the Jonas Brothers Actually Make Sense

If you’re wondering how a pop-rock band fits into Boots and Hearts, here’s the thing: country music has evolved.

The Jonas Brothers recently collaborated with Russell Dickerson (who’s also on the lineup), and they’ve long had connections with artists like Rascal Flatts and Ashley Cooke. Cross-genre collaborations are becoming the norm — and Boots is clearly leaning into that momentum.

“Country music continues to grow by reaching new audiences… Bringing them together reflects how fans are consuming music today,” shared Brooke Dunford, Director of Talent Buying & Business Development for Republic Live.

Love it or question it — this is a cultural moment for the festival.

Front Porch

In country music, the Front Porch has long been a place of reflection. A place where you can look at the life you have inside that front door. A place where time almost seems to stand still, where you can get away. It’s also a place where you can go to observe the world as it passes by you. To think about your place out there beyond the driveway.
