The shows will be performed in-the-round
With stadium shows set for Clemson, SC and Lubbock, TX, this year, George Strait announces two additional shows at Moody Center in Austin, TX, in-the-round on Thursday, April 9th, and Saturday, April 11th. Fans can expect an intimate evening of timeless hits along with new favorites off Cowboys and Dreamers performed center stage, in the round. Opening both shows is fellow Texas native, newcomer William Beckmann.
Tickets on sale on Friday, January 30th at 10 am local time.
With fewer shows a year, Strait’s one-off stadium shows in 2024 included A&M’s Kyle Field, playing one of the largest single ticketed concerts in U.S. history with 110,905 fans in attendance for George Strait: The King at Kyle Field. He followed that record-breaking performance with only five live shows in 2025 with stops in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Foxboro and Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium.
In addition to his upcoming live performances at Austin, TX, Clemson, SC and Lubbock, TX, Strait was celebrated at the 47th Annual Kennedy Center Honors in December, recognizing his lifetime of contributions to American culture through the performing arts and next month he will be inducted into the Texas Songwriters Hall of Fame this February, paying tribute to his enduring impact as both a performer and songwriter whose influence has shaped generations of country music.
The follow-up to Honky Tonk Time Machine, Strait’s 27th No. 1 Billboard Country album, Cowboys And Dreamers features 13 new songs, including “Three Drinks Behind,” “MIA Down in MIA,” “The Little Things,” the 2026 Grammy-nominated “Honky Tonk Hall Of Fame” featuring Chris Stapleton and Strait’s rendition of Waylon Jennings’ “Waymore’s Blues,” which all have made appearances in his live set.
