Country star Riley Green is bringing Cowboy As It Gets Tour to the Maine Savings Amphitheater in 2026

Bangor, Maine, better known for lobster pots than lariats, is about to swap its shoreline for a honky-tonk backdrop. On August 15, 2026, Riley Green’s Cowboy As It Gets Tour will ride into the Maine Savings Amphitheater. He’s not coming alone; Justin Moore, Zach John King, and Hannah McFarland will saddle up beside him. For one night, the waterfront will trade salt air for a whiff of whiskey and sawdust.

Poll
The "Ultimate Anthem" Poll

Which Riley Green song is his ultimate anthem?

"I Wish Grandpas Never Died" (The heartfelt, nostalgic hit)
"There Was This Girl" (The breakout, upbeat love song)
"Different 'Round Here" (The ode to small-town pride, especially the version with Luke Combs)
"Half of Me" (The catchy, drinking-themed collaboration with Thomas Rhett)
"Worst Way" (A newer fan favorite with a more modern feel)
From fresh face to household name
Back in 2020, Green picked up the ACM New Male Artist award, the kind of recognition that makes Nashville take notice. Five years later, he’s collecting trophies like they’re gas station coffee mugs. Since then, he’s won multiple ACM awards, including Single of the Year. Safe to say, Riley Green isn’t the rookie anymore; he’s the guy making everyone else jealous at award season.
Ticket time and quick fingers
Bangor fans can grab tickets starting September 19, 2025, at 10 a.m. If you’d rather gamble, Q-106.5 will be running contests, but expect stiff competition. Winning will take quicker reflexes than snagging the last lobster roll at a Maine fairground.
Can Bangor pull off a country night
Sure, the amphitheater has hosted plenty of acts, but country stars in cowboy hats are a different flavor. Will the locals embrace it like a backyard clam bake, or will they quietly wonder if their Sperrys clash with a two-step? One thing’s certain: by the time the amps fire up, Bangor will sound a whole lot closer to Nashville than New England.
The tour rides on
After Bangor, Green heads west to Grand Forks, North Dakota, with Mackenzie Carpenter and Adam Hood joining the lineup. Clearly, no part of the map is safe from twangy guitars and songs about lost love, long roads, and good whiskey.
