georgestrait.com<\/a>.<\/p>\nMore than 60,000 people can fit in the Jones AT&T Stadium, but it is unclear how many seats will be available for the concerts.<\/p>\n
Both concerts will be performed in-the-round, with the all-Texas line-up delivering an evening of classic hits and new songs from Strait’s latest album, “Cowboys and Dreamers.”<\/p>\n
Strait, known as the “King of Country Music,” has limited his touring schedule in recent years, making these one-off stadium events highly anticipated. His 2024 performance at A&M’s Kyle Field drew a crowd of 110,905, setting a record for one of the largest single-ticketed concerts in U.S. history.<\/p>\n
The announcement comes as Strait continues to rack up industry honors.<\/p>\n
He is scheduled to be celebrated at the 47th Annual Kennedy Center Honors in December, recognizing his lifetime contributions to American culture.<\/p>\n
Early next year, he will be inducted into the Texas Songwriters Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n
Strait’s most recent album, “Cowboys and Dreamers,” was released last year and features 13 new songs, including a duet with Chris Stapleton on “Honky Tonk Hall Of Fame.” The album was named “album of the week” by The Associated Press.<\/p>\n
Lambert, the most-awarded artist in Academy of Country Music history, recently released her 10th solo studio album, “Postcards from Texas.” Westbrook is a Stephenville, Texas, native whose 17-track debut album, Texas Forever, has garnered significant streams and critical acclaim.<\/p>\n
