Country music legend Alan Jackson has set the date for his final full-length concert, titled “Last Call: One More for the Road – The Finale,” slated to take place on June 27, 2026, at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. In an exclusive announcement to PEOPLE, Jackson expressed his excitement, stating, “It’s been a long road… and it’s taken me places I never imagined.” At 66 years old, Jackson is ready to bid farewell to his touring career in a grand fashion, surrounded by his special friends and colleagues from the country music industry.
The celebrated artist is planning to share the stage with notable names like Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, and others, with further surprise guests expected to join the lineup. The decision to hold his final show in Nashville, where his musical journey began, holds sentimental significance for Jackson. Expressing his sentiment, he said, “We just felt like we had to end it all where it all started for me, and that’s in Nashville — Music City — where country music lives.”
Registration for pre-sales of the concert tickets will commence on October 8 at 11 a.m. ET on www.AlanJacksonLastCall.com, running through October 13. The pre-sales are set to begin on October 15, with general public ticket sales opening on October 17, coinciding with Jackson’s birthday. Additionally, VIP experiences will be made available for purchase. Furthermore, a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the CMT Research Foundation, supporting research for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a condition Jackson has been battling for years.
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a degenerative nerve condition affecting Jackson’s mobility and balance, was disclosed by the singer in 2021. Despite the challenges posed by the disease, Jackson remained determined to continue performing for his fans until the effects on his stage presence became noticeable. His openness about the condition was fueled by his desire to be transparent with his audience regarding his health struggles.
Jackson embarked on his farewell tour, “Last Call: One More for the Road,” in 2022, culminating in May 2025 with the announcement of his final stadium concert. Reflecting on his decision to retire from touring, Jackson addressed his fans at a prior show, affirming, “I’ve got to do my last one there. But this is the last one out on the road for me.” While there is no known cure for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, Jackson remains resolute about managing the condition and embracing his final performance with gratitude and poise.
As the iconic country musician gears up for his grand finale in Nashville, fans and industry peers alike are eagerly anticipating a night of heartfelt performances and memorable moments. With a career spanning over three decades, Alan Jackson’s contribution to country music has left an indelible mark on the industry, making his farewell concert a bittersweet yet celebratory occasion for all who have followed his remarkable journey.
