Inside the Sunset Country Fest Experience: What Makes This Festival Different

Sunset Country Fest is more than just a music festival — it’s an experience built for country music fans who want to go beyond just watching a show. Here’s a closer look at everything we’re bringing to Apopka Amphitheater in February 2027.

The Music

Two nights. One main stage. Six incredible artists. Hosted by the unstoppable Ashley Layfield. From the opening note to the final encore, the music at Sunset Country Fest is curated to deliver maximum moments — the kind that give you chills and make you reach for your phone to capture what you’re feeling.

The Food & Drinks

We’ve worked hard to build a food and beverage lineup that matches the quality of our music lineup. Expect Southern comfort food, BBQ, street food favorites, craft beer, signature cocktails, and non-alcoholic options for everyone. Multiple bars and food stations throughout the venue mean short lines and more time enjoying the music.

The VIP & Premium Experience

Want to take it up a notch? Our VIP and Premium experiences are designed for fans who want the full treatment. VIP guests get a dedicated viewing area, private bar and lounge, and priority entry — all for just $59. Premium guests get everything VIP offers, plus front-of-stage access, complimentary drinks, a meet and greet with the artists, a gift bag, and premium parking. At $89, it’s the best deal in country music festival experiences.

The Community

Here’s the thing about country music fans: they’re the best. They’re welcoming, passionate, and they know how to have a good time without taking themselves too seriously. Sunset Country Fest is being built with that community in mind — a place where you can come alone and leave with new friends, or bring your whole crew and make memories that last a lifetime.

Central Florida has an incredible country music community, and Sunset Country Fest is going to be the annual event that brings it all together. We can’t wait to see you there.
