The landscape for 2026 country music tours is shaping up to be one of the most robust in recent years, featuring the return of several major headliners who opted to stay off the road in 2025. Fans won’t have to wait for the warmer months to catch their favorite artists; the concert season kicks off as early as January with heavy hitters like Blake Shelton, Trace Adkins, and Eric Church leading the charge.
While the industry is still awaiting the announcement of the biggest summer stadium runs, several high-profile spring dates have already been confirmed. Artists such as Riley Green, Morgan Wallen, and Megan Moroney are slated for significant tours beginning in the first half of the year. There is also significant speculation regarding a potential return to the road for Carrie Underwood, though official confirmation remains pending.
