Rock the South Confirms 2026 Move to Decatur With New Permanent Festival Site

Peachtree Entertainment will host the event at its 150-plus-acre Fields property to enable long-term infrastructure for a larger, fan-focused setup.

Overview

  • The festival will take place June 11–13, 2026 in Decatur after 14 years in Cullman.
  • The Fields at Decatur will feature two stages, expanded campgrounds with engineered drainage, more shaded areas, VIP space and fan zones across more than 150 acres.
  • Organizers say owning the site will create a permanent home that supports continued investment and an upgraded experience.
  • Leaders Nathan Baugh and Shane Quick framed the relocation as building on Cullman roots rather than abandoning them.
  • Organizers pledged to keep supporting Cullman charities and to add Decatur partners, and they described 2025 attendance as record-breaking without releasing figures.
