Stagecoach is one of the biggest and most anticipated country music festivals in the world. Every year, thousands of fans gather in Indio, California to witness the hottest country stars performing on stage and to indulge in the best food the festival has to offer. This year, Stagecoach 2025 was no exception. It was a star-studded event with a lineup that had everyone buzzing, including Goldenvoice’s very own Stacy Vee, popular artists Jelly Roll and Shaboozey, and celebrity chef Guy Fieri. We had the chance to catch up with these industry insiders and get their take on how Stagecoach has evolved over the years.
When asked about Stagecoach’s growth, Stacy Vee, director of marketing at Goldenvoice, couldn’t help but express her excitement. “Stagecoach has come a long way since its inception in 2007. It has transformed into a massive festival that attracts music lovers from all over the world,” she said. Vee, who has been involved with Stagecoach since its early days, is proud of how the festival has evolved into what it is today. “It’s not just about the music anymore. We have added so many fun activities, food options and attractions that make it a unique experience for everyone.”
One of those attractions is the BBQ pitmaster himself, Guy Fieri. With his signature bleached hair and infectious energy, Fieri has become an integral part of Stagecoach. His popular restaurant, Guy’s Stagecoach Smokehouse, has been a fan favorite since its debut in 2012. “I couldn’t be happier to be a part of this amazing festival. The energy here is contagious and the fans are so passionate. I’m just glad I can bring some flavor to the mix,” Fieri shared with us.
And speaking of flavor, we couldn’t ignore the delicious food options at Stagecoach. Shaboozey, a rising star in the country music scene, raved about the variety of food offered at the festival. “I’m a foodie, so I always look forward to trying new things at Stagecoach. From BBQ to tacos to vegan options, there is something for everyone. And let’s not forget about the famous Stagecoach Bloody Marys – they are to die for!” Shaboozey exclaimed.
The festival also welcomed the return of Jelly Roll, a fan favorite who has performed at Stagecoach multiple times. “I love coming back to Stagecoach. The fans here appreciate real country music and the energy they bring to my performances is electrifying,” Jelly Roll stated. He also gave a special shoutout to the loyal Stagecoach fans, saying, “Without the fans, there would be no Stagecoach. They are the heart and soul of this festival.”
Apart from the music and food, the festival also had some exciting additions this year. One of the most talked about was the Stagecoach Pool Party, where attendees could cool off and party with their favorite artists. There was also a giant ferris wheel with breathtaking views of the festival grounds, a marketplace featuring unique vendors, and even a karaoke bar for fans to show off their singing skills.
With all these amazing elements, it’s no surprise that Stagecoach continues to attract more fans every year. “This is my first time at Stagecoach and I am blown away by the experience,” said Emily, a first-time attendee. “The music, the food, the activities – it’s all so incredible. I will definitely be coming back.”
That sentiment was echoed by many other attendees who shared their love for Stagecoach on social media. From the memorable performances to the delicious food, it’s clear that this year’s festival was a huge success.
