Hinterland Music Festival at Roaming Hills is thrilled to announce the official lineup for its 12th annual edition, taking place Friday, July 30, through Sunday, August 1, 2027, in St. Charles, Iowa, just 30 minutes south of Des Moines.
Hinterland has become known for bringing top-tier talent, as well as artists on the verge of breaking out, to the heart of the Midwest in the Iowa countryside. The 2027 lineup features Slayyyter, Phoebe Bridgers, Billy Strings, Zach Top, Malcolm Todd, Remi Wolf, and many more.
As one of the nation's leading independently owned music festivals, Hinterland has built its reputation on delivering a world-class, genre-fluid musical experience in the heart of the Iowa countryside. For more than a decade, its commitment to thoughtful curation and attention to detail has made it a destination for fans from across the country and around the world.
With a single-stage format, every artist selection is intentional, creating a unique opportunity to showcase the breadth of today's musical landscape. The festival is also thrilled to welcome back Phoebe Bridgers and Billy Strings, both of whom headlined in 2022, as well as Remi Wolf, who made her Hinterland debut in 2025.
Camping is at the heart of the Hinterland experience, and fans can choose from tent, car, or RV options to settle in for the whole weekend. After the main stage goes quiet each night, the party moves to the Campfire Stage for late-night sets in the campground, open to every ticket holder. Campers also have Basecamp nearby, the campground hub with food vendors, a bar, and more.
Beyond the music, Hinterland offers a one-of-a-kind experience that celebrates the spirit of an Iowa adventure. From the HinterMarket showcasing regional artists and makers to immersive art installations, interactive experiences like the family-friendly Miniland, and outdoor activities spanning miles of scenic trails, there's plenty to discover throughout the grounds.
Hinterland has earned widespread acclaim from national and regional media, with USA TODAY noting that “Hinterland Music Festival feels built for the whole weekend,” while the New York Post praised its programming, declaring, “The curators at the Hinterland Music Festival don't get enough credit.”
The Luna Collective called it “one of the most thoughtfully crafted lineups in the country,” PLEASER named it “one of the summer's hottest events,” and Iowa Public Radio's Studio One described it as “a little something for all” and “the Midwest's fastest-rising, FOMO-fueled festival.”
