The King of Country music has two shows for this weekend in Austin to open their new Moody Center. Tonight and tomorrow night you can catch George Strait on the stage in Austin, Texas. I was supposed to be there but I ended up selling my tickets.

If you aren't able to make it this weekend, maybe you can see him in November in Fort Worth.  The King of Country Music will headline Dickies Arena on November 18th and 19th. Tickets will go on sale next Friday, May 13th.  The opening act for the shows will be Tenille Townes.

FORT WORTH, Texas – Texas’s own George Strait has announced a two-nights-only event in his home state, with back-to-back concerts set for Friday, November 18 and Saturday, November 19, 2022 at Fort Worth’s Dickies Arena. The King of Country Music will be joined by special guest Tenille Townes for both dates.

Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday, May 13 at 10 a.m. CT via Ticketmaster.com. American Express® Card Members can purchase tickets before the general public beginning Wednesday, May 4 at 10 a.m. CT through Thursday, May 12 at 10 p.m. CT.

As previously announced, Strait will also perform back-to-back nights at Austin’s Moody Center grand opening celebration tonight, April 29, and tomorrow, April 30, in addition to a headlining date at Kansas City’s GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on July 30.

Since his record-breaking Cowboy Rides Away Tour in 2014, Strait has performed for limited engagements, including appearances in 2021 headlining both weekends of the Austin City Limits Music Festival as well as Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium and Minneapolis’ U.S. Bank Stadium. He also extended his Strait to Vegas series at T-Mobile Arena earlier this year and recently performed a one-night Strait to the Natural State show at Little Rock’s Simmons Bank Arena before returning to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo for his 31st performance at the event.
With an unmatched 60 singles hitting the top of the charts—more than any other artist in any genre—during the span of his 30+ year career, Strait has collected 33 Platinum or multi-Platinum-selling albums, more than any other Country artist and ranking third across all genres behind The Beatles and Elvis Presley. The Texas troubadour is the only artist or act in history to have a Top 10 hit every year for over three decades and recently earned his 100th entry on the Billboard Country Airplay chart with his latest single, “The Weight of the Badge.” He has sold nearly 70 million albums and earned more than 60 major entertainment industry awards, including induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2006.
