Secure Your Spot: Ticket Information
The demand for tickets is expected to be incredibly high, following Strait’s recent trend of selling out massive venues. Fans hoping to attend this exclusive event should be ready on Friday, November 21, 2025, at 10 a.m. CT, when tickets officially go on sale via georgestrait.com.
Following a Record-Breaking Year
This announcement comes after a series of monumental stadium shows. In 2024, Strait played to 110,905 fans at Texas A&M’s Kyle Field, setting a record for the largest single ticketed concert in U.S. history. With only a handful of live shows scheduled for 2025, the Lubbock date is a rare chance for fans to see him perform live.
Critics continue to praise Strait’s masterful performances. Variety recently noted that “the privilege of still having him kicking around is all theirs,” while The Boston Globe praised his powerful vocals, stating he “let his voice do the heavy lifting.”
A Celebration of a Living Legend
The Lubbock show is not just a concert; it’s a celebration of Strait’s enduring impact on music and culture. The country icon is set to be celebrated at the 47th Annual Kennedy Center Honors for his lifetime contributions to the performing arts and will also be inducted into the Texas Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Fans can anticipate a setlist blending timeless hits with new favorites from his 31st studio album, Cowboys and Dreamers. The album, which includes tracks like “Three Drinks Behind” and “Honky Tonk Hall Of Fame,” has been praised by Associated Press as an “album of the week,” further cementing Strait’s legacy as the undisputed “King of Country Music.”
