“On behalf of the vibrant community of Gonzales, Texas, we extend a heartfelt welcome to all guests of the Cattle Country Festival,” said Susan Sankey, interim director of the Gonzales Chamber of Commerce and Agriculture. “This is especially fun as we celebrate our town's 200th birthday in 2025. The economic impact from the festival's inaugural year was purely remarkable and prosperous for Gonzales and its presence enriches our town and brings our shared love for music and culture to life. We appreciate Cattle Country fans for celebrating with us in this remarkable milestone bicentennial year, and we look forward to creating unforgettable memories together."

The music and camping festival will once again take place on the sprawling 400-acre ranch in Gonzales, Texas, dubbed “The Boot” along the Guadalupe River and located conveniently just an hour from three major cities: Austin, San Antonio, and Houston. The Boot boasts more than 150 acres of Texas pecan trees, creating shaded groves along the riverbank, a perfect natural backdrop for the festival-goers to relax and immerse themselves in the serene surroundings.

Back by popular demand, the festival will offer more GA and VIP camping areas, additional tents in the luxurious Glamping Village with a private glamping lounge, as well as more RV spaces and on-site amenities for those staying on the grounds.

Adding to the charm, The Boot offers several inviting swimming areas, aptly named Cowboy Coves, where attendees can cool off and enjoy the festival's refreshing waterside experience. The festival grounds will also feature Texas’ best food, wine, spirits, brews and shopping with the participating vendors to be announced at a later date.

Proven in its first year, the ranch will once again transform into a weekend oasis, fostering an unmatched sense of camaraderie among attendees, with many of the musicians joining in on the fun too. From tailgating to playing games to fishing and floating on the Guadalupe River, the festivities begin before the first act takes the stage and continue after the headliner’s final bow.
