Flagler County is getting a nationally touring country music act this fall. Flagler Broadcasting has announced that Drake Milligan will headline the KIX Country Fest on Saturday, November 7, 2026, at the Flagler County Fairgrounds, 150 Sawgrass Rd., Bunnell. Milligan is scheduled to take the stage at 7:30 PM.
Who Is Drake Milligan?
Milligan is a country artist known for blending classic honky-tonk with a rock ‘n’ roll edge, citing George Strait and Elvis Presley as his primary influences. He broke onto the scene in 2022 with his debut album Dallas/Fort Worth, which reached the top of both the iTunes Country and All-Genre charts. Since then, he has performed on The Kelly Clarkson Show, at The Grand Ole Opry, and at Stagecoach — one of the country’s largest music festivals.
His follow-up album, Tumbleweed, produced a number-one hit on Canadian Country Radio. Milligan has now surpassed 230 million streams worldwide and is currently on his “Tumbleweed World Tour,” which runs through the end of 2026.
His work has been covered by Billboard, PEOPLE, and USA Today.
What the Organizers Said
Kirk Keller, VP of Sales at Flagler Broadcasting, spoke to why Milligan was chosen to headline the event. “We are incredibly excited to bring an entertainer of Drake’s caliber to Bunnell,” Keller said. “His sound perfectly bridges the gap between the legends we grew up with and the modern energy of today’s country. It’s going to be a massive night for KIX Country fans.”

A full festival lineup and ticket details have not yet been released. That information will be made available through Flagler Broadcasting and local radio station KIX Country 98.7. For more information in the meantime, contact Samantha at samantha@flaglerbroadcasting.com.
