George Strait continues to prove why he’s been dubbed the King of Country, setting a record for the largest single ticketed concert in U.S. History and a new record for Texas A&M Kyle Field for a single event with 110,905 fans in attendance for George Strait: The King at Kyle Field. The record-breaking performance was one of only 10 live shows from Strait last year including a supersized stop at Allegiant Stadium for his 37 Strait to Vegas show.
The country music icon along with eleven-time GRAMMY winner Chris Stapleton will continue the excitement with five shows in 2025, including a stop at Gillette Stadium on June 21. Joining Strait and Stapleton for this run of one-off stadium dates will be special guest Parker McCollum for the Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Foxborough dates.
“I keep trying to slow down a bit but you keep calling me back. Please don’t ever stop. I still love it just as much as I always have,” shares Strait. “Thank you for an amazing year last year and I can’t wait to see you for a few more again this year. Chris will be back and glad to have Little Big Town with us in LA. For the other cities, we’ve added Parker M. to the show which will be outstanding. Can’t wait to see you!!”
Of his stop at New Jersey’s Metlife Stadium last year The Associated Press opined, “Strait turned a space of tens of thousands across many demographics into something resembling the intimacy of those honky tonks he’s always singing about.” Bringing “a big band and a lot of heart” for what AP describes as the “closest a person can get to levitation…singing along to ‘Amarillo by Morning’ in a stadium of tens of thousands.”
While Pollstar opines, “Strait remains the most worthy inheritor of Merle Haggard or Willie Nelson’s mantle of country icon through the meaningful fluidity with which he moves through country’s various sub-strains with the same ease and enjoyment that marked both men’s Country Music Hall of Fame careers.”
