George Strait Plots Star-Studded 2023 Stadium Tour
George Strait is preparing to hit the road in 2023 on his most extensive stadium tour in nine years - and he's bringing some well-known friends along with him for the ride.
The "King of Country" and his Ace in the Hole Band are slated to play six stadium dates, starting with a May 6 show at Glendale, AZ's State Farm Stadium. A final performance at Tampa, FL's Raymond James Stadium will wrap things up on August 5.
The upcoming trek will feature performances by fellow country rockers Chris Stapleton and Little Big Town.
"It just felt right," Strait shared in a statement released by Billboard. "I had the opportunity with Chris and Little Big Town and everything just kind of fell in place for next year. I don't do that many shows anymore, so if we can do a stadium where we can play for more people, that works for me."
