Saddle up, folks! Blake Shelton‘s Friends and Heroes Tour will return for 2020!

The country star announced the second iteration of the trek, which ran earlier this year, on Wednesday, the 16th of October.

Shelton’s Friends and Heroes Tour will begin on Feb. 13 in Portland, Ore., and hit 16 cities throughout the Midwest and West Coast. Back again for the trek is Lauren Alaina, along with special guests are the Bellamy Brothers, John Anderson, and Trace Adkins. All four artists were also part of the 2019 run.

In a press release, Shelton expressed his excitement for the brand new tour.

“The Friends and Heroes Tour was so exciting and successful last year that I couldn’t imagine not trying something like that again. Even though every night when the show wrapped, I would tell the audience that they might never see something like this again, with these legends, my plan all along was to at least try to make that happen.”

He continues,

“I didn’t know if I’d be able to get the same artists, but we were able to work it out,” Shelton adds. “We were only able to do a handful of shows last year, so we’re going to take the tour to different areas so that fans will get a chance to see what we did. I feel like it was the best concert experience that I’ve ever been involved in, and I’m ready to get fired up again.”

Tickets for Shelton’s 2020 Friends and Heroes Tour go on sale on the 25th of October at 10 AM local time for all shows except for those in Los Angeles, Calif., and Wichita, Kan., and Detroit, Mich.
