The Garth Brooks Stadium Tour initially launched in March of 2019 and has broken stadium attendance records at every stop on the tour so far.

Brooks is a seven-time CMA Entertainer of the Year. The Oklahoma native is the first and only artist in history to receive nine Diamond Awards for the now nine albums certified by the RIAA at over 10 million album sales each. He’s the No.1 selling solo artist in U.S. history.
