Nate Smith is gearing up for a huge 2026 as he launches the Long Live Country Rock & Roll Tour, his biggest North American headlining run to date. Produced by Live Nation, the 23-date trek kicks off March 26 at Tulsa’s legendary Cain’s Ballroom and travels coast-to-coast before wrapping with a two-night finale at Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium on June 17–18. Smith will be joined by special guests Josh Ross, Brandon Wisham, and rising trio Just Jayne across select dates next spring. Tickets are available now through an artist presale, with additional presales throughout the week and general onsale beginning Friday, December 12 at 10 a.m. local time.
The tour announcement follows a powerhouse year for Smith, who will first return to the road as direct support for Jason Aldean on the 2026 leg of Aldean’s Full Throttle Tour. Smith spent much of 2025 opening for the superstar, energising arenas nationwide. He’s also slated for a return to Stagecoach, continuing a run of high-profile festival appearances that includes iHeartCountry Festival, Ridin’ Hearts Festival, The Great New York State Fair, and more. A proven live force, Smith previously sold out every stop on his World on Fire Tour and packed venues across the country on his Through the Smoke Tour.
Smith closes 2025 with yet another milestone: his fourth consecutive number one on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart with ‘Fix What You Didn’t Break.' His latest single, ‘After Midnight' – a collaboration with Tyler Hubbard – arrived with major momentum, becoming the most-added song at country radio with 60 first-week stations. As he readies new music and a major touring year, fans can expect a high-energy, hit-filled show built for big rooms, big crowds, and big singalongs.
