Thomas Rhett brings the Soundtrack to Life Tour to Bethel Woods Center for the Arts on Friday, August 14, 2026 at 7:00 PM. One of modern country’s most reliable hitmakers is playing the original Woodstock site in the Hudson Valley — and that’s a combination worth the drive.
About Thomas Rhett
Thomas Rhett has quietly built one of the most impressive catalogs in modern country music. “Die a Happy Man,” “Marry Me,” “Beer Can’t Fix,” “Craving You” — the list goes on, and every one of them is a sing-along waiting to happen. His live shows are polished but warm, with a setlist that balances the radio hits with enough deep cuts to keep the diehards happy. The Soundtrack to Life Tour is his latest, and if past tours are any indication, expect a high-energy set with strong production and a crowd that knows every word.
Get into the setlist early — Thomas Rhett’s albums on Amazon will have you ready.
The Venue
Bethel Woods sits on the original site of the 1969 Woodstock festival, and even if country music wasn’t part of that particular weekend, there’s an undeniable energy to seeing live music on these grounds. The pavilion and lawn both offer excellent views, and the museum on-site is worth a visit if you arrive early. Sullivan County is beautiful in mid-August, and the surrounding area has dining and lodging options if you want to make it an overnight trip. Full Bethel Woods venue guide here.
