Country music fans, get ready—George Strait and Chris Stapleton are hitting the road again for another epic stadium tour. After a wildly successful run in 2023, the two country powerhouses are reuniting for a five-date trek across the U.S. this summer, delivering the kind of live show that only legends can.

Strait, the undisputed King of Country, and Stapleton, one of modern country’s most powerful voices, will bring their timeless hits and signature styles to massive football stadiums, with Parker McCollum joining as a special guest on most dates. Little Big Town will also be making an appearance for the Los Angeles show.

Two Generations of Country Music on One Stage

Strait and Stapleton’s partnership on tour is more than just a star-studded lineup—it’s a meeting of two generations of country music. George Strait, with a career spanning over four decades, has defined the genre with classics like “Amarillo By Morning,” “The Chair,” and “Carrying Your Love with Me.” Meanwhile, Stapleton has carved out his own place in country music history, blending traditional and blues influences on hits like “Tennessee Whiskey” and “Starting Over.”

Strait himself couldn’t be more excited to get back on the road. “I keep trying to slow down a bit, but you keep calling me back,” he said in a statement. “Please don’t ever stop. I still love it just as much as I always have.”

A Special Connection on and Off the Stage

The chemistry between Strait and Stapleton goes beyond their live performances. The two recently teamed up on “Honky Tonk Hall of Fame”, a standout track from Strait’s upcoming album, Cowboys & Dreamers. They also joined forces for a performance at the 2024 CMA Awards, proving that their voices blend together as seamlessly as classic country and a good whiskey.

Adding to the excitement, Parker McCollum—one of country music’s fastest-rising stars—will open the show for most dates, bringing hits like “Pretty Heart” and “Burn It Down” to fans across the country. Meanwhile, country quartet Little Big Town will take the stage for the Los Angeles stop, reprising their role from Strait and Stapleton’s 2023 tour.

Don’t Miss the Biggest Country Tour of the Summer

With a limited number of shows and two of country’s most celebrated artists sharing the stage, the George Strait and Chris Stapleton 2025 Stadium Tour is shaping up to be one of the most in-demand events of the year.

Strait’s words sum it up best: “Thank you for an amazing year last year, and I can’t wait to see you for a few more again this year.”

If history is any indication, these tickets won’t last long—so mark your calendars and get ready for a night of pure country magic.
