Morgan Wallen turns a four-word Instagram caption into 14 stadium nights, with Brooks & Dunn on every Saturday
Morgan Wallen will play two nights in each of seven American football stadiums from June to August 2027 on the Last Time I Checked Tour, announced on Thursday, US time. Cole Swindell and Stella Lefty open every show, Brooks & Dunn play every Saturday, and HARDY and Thomas Rhett share the Fridays. Tickets go on general sale on Friday 20 November, and there are no dates outside the US so far.
Three things to know
- Fourteen shows, seven stadiums, two nights each: Tampa, Foxborough, Athens in Georgia, Buffalo, Columbus, Arlington and Nashville, from 11 June to 28 August 2027.
- The tour name started as a teaser: Wallen captioned a hunting-and-fishing photo "last time I checked" earlier in the week, and fans spent two days guessing whether it meant an album or a tour.
- Artist presales run from 17 to 19 November, and general sale opens at 10am local time on 20 November, which is late Friday night in Perth and the early hours of Saturday on the east coast.
Morgan Wallen has gone from a cryptic four-word Instagram caption to a 14-night stadium tour in two days.
The Last Time I Checked Tour, announced on Thursday, US time, puts the 33-year-old in seven American football stadiums for two nights each between June and August 2027. Every venue is an NFL or major college football ground, not an arena.
Where and when is he playing?
The tour opens at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, on 11 and 12 June. It then moves to Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts (25 and 26 June), Dooley Field at Sanford Stadium in Athens, Georgia (16 and 17 July), Highmark Stadium in Buffalo, New York (23 and 24 July), Ohio Stadium in Columbus (6 and 7 August) and AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas (13 and 14 August), before finishing at Nissan Stadium in Nashville on 27 and 28 August.
Each city gets a Friday and a Saturday. Cole Swindell and Stella Lefty open all 14 shows. Brooks & Dunn, the duo behind Boot Scootin’ Boogie, play every Saturday. HARDY takes the Friday nights in Tampa, Arlington and Nashville, and Thomas Rhett the other four Fridays.
How do fans get tickets?
Registration for Wallen’s artist presale is open until 10pm US Eastern time on Thursday 19 November, and the presales themselves run from Tuesday 17 to Thursday 19 November, with start times varying by show. Codes are sent on Monday 16 November and work only in the city they were registered for, with a limit of six tickets per show. Registering does not guarantee a ticket.
General sale opens at 10am local time on Friday 20 November through each venue’s ticket seller. For fans in Australia planning a trip, that is 11pm AWST on Friday (2am Saturday AEDT) for the East Coast stadiums, and an hour later for Arlington and Nashville. Travel and VIP packages with hotel stays are also on offer, and the tour’s terms say all sales are final.
Why does a Wallen tour matter this much?
Few artists in any genre book two stadium nights in a row in seven cities. Wallen’s fourth album, I’m The Problem, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in May 2025 and spent 14 non-consecutive weeks on top.
The bill is also a statement about country music’s reach. Saturday nights pairing Wallen with Brooks & Dunn put two generations of the genre on one stadium stage.
Is he coming to Australia?
Not on this tour. All 14 dates are in the US, and no international shows have been announced. Australian country fans who want to see him in 2027 will need to travel to the US, and the presale and general-sale windows fall overnight in Australia.
What is “Last Time I Checked”?
For now, just the tour’s name. Wallen posted the phrase as an Instagram caption earlier this week without explanation, and has not said whether it is also the title of new music.
