The Georgia natives return to headline the first concert at Sanford Stadium since 2013
Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan are teaming up to play Sanford Stadium at the University of Georgia on April 25, 2026. The longtime friends and Georgia natives joined SEC Nation today (Sat, Sept 27th) to make the announcement in person from Georgia’s campus, ahead of tonight’s Georgia Bulldogs vs Alabama Crimson Tide game.
Both Aldean’s and Bryan’s fan club members will have ticket presales: Monday, September 29th, 10 am local time through Thursday, October 2nd at 10 pm local time. Tickets to the public are on sale Friday, October 3rd, at 10 am local time.
Bryan and Aldean first rocked Sanford Stadium in 2013 as part of Aldean’s Night Train tour, which marked the one and only concert event ever to be held in the venue. They are set to return and headline the all-star line-up, which also includes current ACM nominee Zach Top and platinum-selling singer and Georgia native Lauren Alaina, as well as DJ Rock and Dee Jay Silver, for the first Live Between the Hedges Concert Series Presented by Pruitt Health on April 25, 2026, on Dooley Field at Sanford Stadium.
“Playing Sanford Stadium in 2013 was one of the biggest highlights of my career,” Aldean says. “I couldn’t be more excited to co-headline it this time with my buddy Luke Bryan. Luke and I have talked for years about wanting to do another show in Athens, and finally the stars have aligned for us to be able to do it. This one’s gonna be something people haven’t seen before….. WE PROMISE YA!”
“Growing up going to Sanford Stadium was always a highlight of the year for me and I can’t believe I get to go back as a co-headliner with one of my best friends and play this iconic place,” adds Bryan. “Aldean and I have been talking about putting on a unique show together for a few years and to be able to do that in our home turf is incredible. I am so grateful to continue to have these opportunities and to keep being able to have so much fun at this life. This is going to be way up there on the list for me!”
