George Strait and his Ace in the Hole Band have embarked on a stadium tour for 2023. They started on May 6 in Glendale, Arizona’s State Farm Stadium and will end on August 5 in Tampa, Florida’s Raymond James Stadium. Strait’s scheduled 2023 performances also include two in November in Fort Worth, Texas.

All concerts will feature Chris Stapleton and Little Big Town as special guests.

In 2012, Strait said that he wasn’t “retiring,” but “the old road-warrior days are just going to be over” after over 30 years of touring. In 2016, the country music star partnered with Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena, leading him to perform several times a year at the venue.
