LDT “The King is coming back. 👑 George Strait announces a blockbuster return to Clemson’s Memorial Stadium — his first appearance there since 1999.”

Country icon George Strait has revealed plans for a major stadium show at Clemson’s Memorial Stadium on May 2, 2026 — marking his first performance at the venue in over a quarter of a century.

The concert will feature an “In the Round” 360-degree stage, allowing fans to surround him completely, adding a sense of intimacy to the massive stadium setting. He’ll be joined by country standouts Cody Johnson and Wyatt Flores.

Strait continues to break records more than 40 years into his career. In 2024, he drew a staggering 110,905 fans to Texas A&M’s Kyle Field — the largest U.S. crowd ever recorded for a single-artist country show.

Industry observers say the announcement proves one thing: George Strait isn’t slowing down — he’s still setting the pace for stadium-sized country music.
