Scotty McCreery to Launch 2026 Poolside Concert Series at Bel-Aire Backyard

Bel-Aire Backyard's Poolside Concert Series returns in 2026 with another season of high-energy live music set against the open-air backdrop of Durango Casino & Resort. The season kicks off with country star Scotty McCreery on Friday, April 10. Doors open at 7 p.m., and the performance begins at 8 p.m. The event is open to all ages; guests under 18 must be accompanied by a legal guardian.

McCreery made history in 2011 as both the first country artist and the youngest male artist of any genre to debut a first studio album, the Platinum-certified Clear as Day, at No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard Top 200 Albums chart. He has sold more than 4 million albums and achieved five consecutive No. 1 hits, including the RIAA Triple Platinum-certified "Five More Minutes" and the RIAA Platinum-certified "Damn Strait." In 2024, he became a member of the Grand Ole Opry.

The Poolside Concert Series is produced by AEG Presents: Las Vegas in partnership with Clique Hospitality. "This series brings Las Vegas Strip-caliber artists to the local market," said Andy Masi, founder of Clique Hospitality. "We're delivering live music in a setting that is comfortable, intimate, and approachable, where guests can park for free, avoid the Strip crowds, and still feel like they are getting a world-class experience."

Additional 2026 Poolside Concert Series dates include Jackson Dean on April 17, J Boog on April 20, and electronic duo Thievery Corporation on May 31.
