George Strait has sent country music fans into a frenzy by teasing a 2026 announcement with a throwback festival poster.
The King of Country has been touring, albeit at a reduced pace, since his Cowboy Rides Away tour in 2014. This year, he performed a limited number of shows with Chris Stapleton, a collaboration that began in 2024.
In 2024, Strait set the record for the largest single-ticketed concert in U.S. history, with 110,905 fans attending his show at Texas A&M Kyle Field. Although Zach Bryan has since broken this record, Strait's performance was a notable achievement.
George Strait might have walked away from long tour runs, but the King has still been hitting the stage.
