The King of Country is coming home — for one night only.
George Strait has officially announced a special in-the-round concert set for April 25, 2026, at Jones AT&T Stadium in Lubbock, Texas, instantly becoming one of the most anticipated live events of the year.
This rare performance continues Strait’s trend of carefully selected, high-impact stadium shows. Rather than launching a full tour, the country legend now focuses on a handful of massive, unforgettable appearances — and this Lubbock date is already shaping up to be one of his biggest yet.
The concert will feature an immersive 360-degree stage, allowing fans on all sides of the stadium to get the closest, most intimate George Strait experience possible. Joining him for the night are fellow Texans Miranda Lambert, bringing her fiery vocals and long list of hits, and rising talent Hudson Westbrook, whose traditional-meets-modern sound has earned him rapid attention across the South.
For Lubbock — a city rich in country music heritage — this announcement feels like a homecoming celebration. Local officials expect a surge of tourism, packed hotels, and one of the largest event turnouts the stadium has ever seen.
Strait, who has sold more concert tickets in his lifetime than any artist in American history, continues to prove that his draw remains unmatched. With only a small number of shows announced for 2026, fans are preparing for competitive ticket demand when sales open later this month.
For Texans and country fans everywhere, this isn’t just another concert — it’s George Strait, in Texas, under the open sky. And that’s a moment no one wants to miss.
