Rock band Train and country music artist Parker McCollum will stop in the Lehigh Valley this summer for Musikfest.
The festival announced Monday that Train, known for songs such as “Hey Soul Sister” and “Drops of Jupiter,” will play Aug. 3. Country rock musician George Pippen will join Train as a special guest. The Grammy Award-winning band previously played at the festival in 2023.
McCollum, known for songs such as “Burn it Down” and “Pretty Heart,” will perform Aug. 7.
Tickets for both shows will be available 10 a.m. Friday for the general public, and are available now for ArtsQuest members.

Three other headliners have been announced for the festival so far: Comedian John Mulaney on Aug. 1, comedy artist “Weird Al” Yankovic on Aug. 4, and country musician Bailey Zimmerman on Aug. 6.
Musikfest, which takes place on Bethlehem’s North and South sides, will run July 31 to Aug. 9.
A largely rain-free festival last summer led to a record-breaking attendance of nearly 1.45 million over the 10-day festival.
