If you’ve been saying this kid is the real deal since he showed up on American Idol, well, put your money where your boots are.
John Foster is making his Grand Ole Opry debut on Saturday, June 7. And if you’re not in the building when it happens, don’t come crying when your friends post videos, and you’re stuck watching it through pixelated Instagram Stories.

This isn’t just another show. This is the moment. The kind of night country artists dream about while picking guitar strings in their bedroom. The stage where legends cut their teeth. And now, it’s John Foster’s turn to step into that sacred circle with a fresh suit, a steady voice, and a heart full of gospel and grit.
The lineup is already stacked. Foster will share the bill with Bill Anderson, Old Crow Medicine Show, and Mark Wills, a mix of longtime legends and crowd-pleasers. More names are coming, but let’s be honest. The one you care about is the kid from Louisiana who went from crawfish parades to center stage in a matter of months.
You want in? Here’s how.
Tickets are live right now:

Prices depend on where you sit, but this isn’t the Super Bowl. You can actually afford this. Whether you want to be up close enough to see the sweat on Foster’s brow or just want to sit in the pews and take it all in, there’s a seat waiting. For now.
Because tickets for this show are going to move. The Idol crowd is already on it. The Nashville locals know a big debut when they see one. And the Opry die-hards never miss a Saturday night with this much buzz.
Don’t wait around thinking maybe you’ll go if there’s nothing else happening. Nothing else is happening. This is it. You’ll get to say you saw Foster before the arena tours before the CMA nods before he’s too big to stand still in one spot for long.
And don’t just go for him, go for the moment. The Opry isn’t just a venue. It’s church with a steel guitar. That circle on the stage is hallowed ground. When John Foster walks out there, he won’t just be another Idol finalist. He’ll be something else. He’ll be a country artist welcomed by the ghosts of everyone who paved the path before him.
So pack your boots, bring your loudest applause, and get to Nashville on June 7. This isn’t the start of something. It’s the stamp of legitimacy.
Because when the lights go down, and Foster hits that first note, you’re not just watching a show. You’re watching history.
