There are only three ways to purchase tickets: at ticketmaster.com/garthbrooks; on the Garth Brooks line at Ticketmaster, 1-877-654-2784; or through the Ticketmaster app on a mobile phone. There will be no ticket sales at the venue box office on Friday, May 20. Tickets will cost $98.95, all inclusive.

The tour abides by all state and venue coronavirus rules, and purchaser assumes COVID-19 risk.

Last May, Brooks was one of five artists to receive one of the most prestigious honors an artist can receive, The Kennedy Center Honor. He is the first seven-time recipient of the CMA Entertainer of the Year honor. Brooks is the first and only artist in history to receive nine Diamond awards for the now nine Diamond-certified albums at over 10 million album sales each. He remains the No. 1-selling solo artist in U.S. history, certified by the RIAA with 157 million album sales. Last year, he was awarded Country Touring Artist of the Decade at the 2021 Pollstar Awards.

In March 2020, Brooks received the esteemed Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song. The event aired on PBS. He has received every accolade the recording industry can bestow on an artist.

In November 2020, just after receiving the Billboard Music Icon Award, Brooks released two new albums, his 12th studio album, "FUN," and live album "Triple Live Deluxe."

After the success of "Garth & Trisha Live!" during primetime on CBS in April 2020, CBS also aired "Garth & Trisha Live! A Holiday Concert Event," in December. Both specials featured Garth and Trisha taking song requests through Facebook, live from their studio, Allentown, in Nashville.

In November of 2019, A&E aired "Garth Brooks: The Road I'm On" over two consecutive nights. Part of the network’s esteemed “Biography” franchise, the documentary offered an intimate look at Brooks life as a musician and father over his entire career.

In January 2020, Billboard announced Brooks was the first artist to make it on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart in the ’80s, ’90s, ’00s, ’10s and now ’20s. He debuted "Much Too Young (To Feel This Damn Old)" in 1989. With "Dive Bar," a duet he sang with Blake Shelton, he made an appearance on the list in 2020. The single inspired a “Dive Bar Tour” to dive bars in country music capitals around the country, which will continue its run of stops through 2022.

Last year, Brooks went vinyl with his meticulously curated vinyl package, “LEGACY.” This career-defining collection includes “No Fences,” “The Chase,” “In Pieces,” “Fresh Horses” and “Triple Live,” plus CDs with bonus tracks for a total of seven vinyl albums and seven CDs in each edition.

In March 2019, Brooks launched “The Stadium Tour,” which has broken stadium attendance records at every stop on the tour so far. Pollstar announced at the end of last year that “The Garth Brooks Stadium Tour” was the best-selling country music tour of 2019. In 2017, Brooks finished the three-and-a-half-year-long “Garth Brooks World Tour with Trisha Yearwood.” The tour sold over 6.3 million tickets, making it the biggest North American tour in history – and the biggest American tour in the world.

Brooks also has “Inside Studio G,” a weekly Facebook Live series. It airs every Monday on Garth's Facebook page (7 p.m. EST).
