Big news for Georgia this week. Georgia natives Luke Bryan and Jason Aldean will be co-headlining for a performance at Sanford Stadium at the University of Georgia on April 25, 2026. This will mark the first time they've shared this stage since 2013, for Aldean's Night Train Tour. However, the concert will feature a whole lineup of stars this time around, not just Bryan and Aldean. Even though, obviously, we'd go to see just them regardless.

Also performing will be Zach Top and Lauren Alaina, with sets by DJ Rock and Dee Jay Silver. The show will kick off in 2026, and a new concert series will be presented by Pruitt Health. Aldean and Bryan shared the announcement of the concert with their fans live, before Saturday's Georgia vs. Alabama game.
"Luke and I had a chance to play at Sanford Stadium in 2013, the first concert - and only concert, I think - to ever be held there," Aldean shared. "To be able to go back again and do it again, Luke and I doing that together, is going to be pretty incredible. My favorite show we've ever done right there."
Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan Are Friends First, Performers Second
Aldean and Bryan both came to Nashville from Georgia around the same time to pursue music. Honestly, they easily could have been rivals. Instead, though, the two country stars bonded over their love for Georgia football and a similar sense of humor. They both speak highly of each other, despite having to compete against each other throughout the years.
In an interview, Bryan recalled a memory that made him realize Aldean was "for real." After taking the nomination for Top New Vocalist in 2010, Bryan remembered how his friend "flew up off that couch and he was jumping up and down like he had won the award and was just so happy for [him]." Aldean had won the award the previous year and proved to be a genuine supporter for Bryan in his moment. It's special to get two talented artists in the same room, but it's rare to get to watch two friends have fun on stage. With Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan, that's exactly how it is.
Fans can purchase presale tickets to see these two performers starting Monday, September 29, and general ticket sales will begin on October 3.
