The Coors Light Birds Nest finalized its 2025 concert lineup on Monday when it announced Nickelback will perform at the four-night event, which runs from Feb. 5 to 8.

That’s either good or bad news, depending on your take on the much-maligned Canada-born rock titans.

Nickelback will perform on Friday, Feb. 7. Country singer-songwriter (and fellow Canadian) Josh Ross will open. It’s the band's first-ever appearance at the concert series, which coincides with the Waste Management Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale.

Nickelback joins the star-studded 2025 Coors Light Birds Nest lineup that already includes headliners country-rapper Jelly Roll, EDM supergroup Swedish House Mafia and country star Luke Bryan.

What is the Coors Light Birds Nest?

The Coors Light Birds Nest is a four-night concert series held inside a 48,000-square-foot party tent near TPC Scottsdale. This 21-and-over event serves as an after-party for Phoenix Open attendees, offering “great music, beautiful patrons and enthusiastic partying.”

In other words, it mirrors the lively, often rowdy atmosphere of the WM Phoenix Open.

Each night, more than 6,000 guests enjoy performances by artists spanning rock, country, hip-hop and EDM. Previous Birds Nest headliners have included Snoop Dogg, Weezer, Blink-182, Dierks Bentley, Macklemore, Steve Aoki, Miranda Lambert and G-Eazy.

Gates open at 3:30 p.m. each day with opening performances at 6:30 p.m. followed by the headliner at 8:30 p.m.
