Luke Bryan Announces 2021 Farm Tour

Luke Bryan is resuming his popular Farm Tour this year after the annual event was cancelled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.

The Farm Tour, now in its 12th year, celebrates American farmers. In a statement, Bryan shared why supporting farmers is so important to him.

"I think I am more excited about this year's Farm Tour than any other year," Bryan said in a press release. "Growing up in a farming family in rural Georgia I know how hard farming can be even on a good year, and how hard those families work — from sun-up to sundown. After the challenges we have all faced in the last year with so many people losing their jobs, struggling to put food on their tables, food supply chains jeopardized, grocery stores struggling to keep food on the shelves in some areas, it is so apparent to me, and I hope everyone, why our farmers are truly the backbone of our country. They never stopped providing for all of us. Ever. It's time to thank our farmers, once again. It's going to mean even more to me this year."

The tour, which kicks off on Sept. 9, includes stops in Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio and Michigan.

Tickets for the Farm Tour go on sale on June 11 at 10 a.m. local time. Tickets are available here.
