Every Red Carpet Look From The 2025 iHeartCountry Festival You Need To See

Country stars wore cowboy boots, hats, fringe, rhinestones, and other wardrobe pieces — plus a few iHeart-inspired looks — when they arrived on the red carpet at the 2025 iHeartCountry Festival presented by Capitol One. The annual festival returned on Saturday (May 3) to Moody Center in Austin, Texas.

This year’s star-studded lineup includes some of the genre's rapidly-rising trailblazers, well-respected legends and everything in between. Brooks & Dunn, Thomas Rhett, Rascal Flatts, Sam Hunt, Megan Moroney, Bailey Zimmerman, Nate Smith and Cole Swindell are all set to take the stage. The Daytime Village also included Smith, Moroney, Matt Stell, Tucker Wetmore and Dasha when the free show took over the Dell Technologies Plaza on Saturday afternoon. The viral “Austin” hitmaker is also slated to appear on the iHeartCountry Festival main stage.

iHeartCountry Festival viewers and listeners tuned into the show via Hulu, the Official Streaming Destination, and across 122 iHeartCountry stations nationwide and the free iHeartRadio app. It was all hosted by iHeartRadio’s Bobby Bones.
