John Michael Montgomery announces final concert

The show will be in his home state of Kentucky

Nineties country star John Michael Montgomery will bring The Road Home Tour to Kentucky for his farewell performance. It will be a night to remember as Montgomery takes one final ride through his storied career on December 12th at Rupp Arena in Lexington, KY.

Brought to Rupp Arena by Outback Presents, this special concert will be a historical moment capping off the superstar’s illustrious run, but to make it even more special, it will be a complete family affair, as he shares the stage with his brother Eddie Montgomery of Montgomery Gentry, his son Walker Montgomery, and his son-in-law Travis Denning. The star-studded concert promises to be the event of the year.

“I stepped on a tour bus for the first time in 1992 and haven’t looked back since, but now it’s time to bring it all back home for my last concert and I can’t think of a better place than Rupp Arena. I wanted to celebrate this occasion with my family, so I invited some of them to perform with me. We are going to have a lot of fun and end this ride in a big way,” says Montgomery.

Presales start tomorrow (Wed, July 30th) ahead of the general sale on Friday, August 1st at 10 am local time.

A fixture on the charts in the 1990s with hits like “Life’s A Dance,” “I Love The Way You Love Me,” “Sold,” “Be My Baby Tonight,” “I Swear,” and others, Montgomery charted a whopping 36 singles throughout his decades-long career, including seven that reached No. 1, and released 11 studio albums amassing millions in sales, and receiving numerous multi-platinum and gold RIAA plaques, as well as countless music industry awards and nominations.

The country music icon announced in 2024 that he would officially retire from full-time touring at the end of 2025 with his The Road Home Tour.
