Set times have officially landed for the debut edition of Freely Fest, locking in the running order for its one-night-only takeover of Bridgestone Arena on 8th April, 2026. The inaugural event brings a cross-genre lineup to downtown Nashville, combining arena-scale rock, pop and hip hop across both standing and seated ticket options.

Headlining the night are The Killers, set to take the stage at 9:30pm following a stacked run of performances throughout the evening. T-Pain delivers his set from 8:10pm to 9:00pm, while Dominic Fike takes the spotlight from 7:10pm to 7:55pm, building momentum toward the festival’s closing moments.

Earlier in the schedule, Janelle Monáe performs from 6:15pm to 7:00pm, with rising country-pop artist Avery Anna opening the arena from 5:35pm to 6:05pm. Doors open at 4:30pm, with the Freely Fest Village activating earlier in the afternoon to offer live music, experiences and giveaways ahead of the main program.

As a debut edition, Freely Fest 2026 is shaping up as a tightly curated, high-impact introduction, with clearly staggered set times allowing fans to catch every performance without clashes. With a major headliner, a diverse supporting bill and a central Nashville arena setting, the festival’s first outing looks set to make a confident statement straight out of the gate.
