Velocity is billed as a new multi-city festival that will launch in other locales in 2026, with the initial iteration taking place on the 193-acre farm and baseball diamond made famous by the 1989 film Field of Dreams starring Kevin Costner. In recent years, the field has also been used by the MLB for a pair of official regular season games.

“Adding a second day to this event is going to make it even more epic!” stated Nick Abate of promoter U.S. Concert Agency via a press release.  “With Nickelback hitting the stage at the iconic Field of Dreams, we’re kicking off something special with Velocity, our new multi-city music festival launching in 2026. It’s all about bringing incredible performances to legendary locations and creating unforgettable experiences for fans. We’re beyond excited for what’s to come!”

Nickelback’s performance at the Field of Dreams will follow their previously announced “Rock the Country Tour” with Kid Rock earlier in the summer. Tickets for those shows are available here.
