Morgan Wallen concluded his “One Night At A Time Tour” with a two-night stint at Charlotte’s Bank of America Stadium this past weekend (Oct. 18–19). Named after his third studio album, the 87-show run has seen the CMA Entertainer of the Year nominee perform for more than 3.1 million fans in 51 stadiums as well as arenas and amphitheaters across 10 countries and three continents, excluding festivals.

“This is the last show of the ‘One Night At A Time Tour’ and before I walked out on stage tonight, some of my team gave me a plaque that said this is the highest-selling country music tour of all time. So, thank you guys very much in Charlotte, North Carolina for being a part of that,” Wallen shared at the start of Saturday (Oct. 19)’s show. “This has been a special couple of years for me and my boys. This is truly incredible. It’s a bittersweet night for me.”

Former Carolina Panthers wide receiver Steve Smith Sr. and Wallen’s full band joined him on Friday (Oct. 18) and Saturday night, respectively, as his final walk-out guests. A mashup of “Broadway Girls” and “Whiskey Whiskey” amped up the crowd as cameras followed Wallen walking from the green room to the stage, which became a signature “One Night At A Time Tour” moment as multiple celebrity guests accompanied him for many of his 2024 shows. Notable walk-out appearances include those made by Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce in Kansas City and Tom Brady and Mike Tyson in Las Vegas, among others.

Over the course of 2023 and 2024, the country star broke attendance records at Ford Field, Ohio Stadium, Truist Park and U.S. Bank Stadium, and became the first country artist to perform multiple nights at Ford Field, Ohio Stadium and MetLife Stadium. Additionally, his three nights at Nashville’s Nissan Stadium in May distributed a record-breaking 153,145 tickets.

Internationally, Wallen became the first artist to sell out three evenings at Budweiser Stage in Toronto, Ontario last year, and sold out dates in Oslo, Amsterdam, Glasgow and two consecutive gigs in Dublin earlier this year.

In September, he returned home to Knoxville, Tennessee for two sold-out nights at the University of Tennessee’s Neyland Stadium—the sixth largest college football stadium in the U.S. Walking out with Peyton Manning and a squad of Tennessee Volunteers, Wallen played for 156,161 fans across both shows, surpassing the record previously held by The Jackson 5 across three performances in 1984 to become Knoxville’s largest weekend on record. According to Visit Knoxville, Wallen’s concerts resulted in over $27 million in economic impact for the city and Knox County, with a tourism uptick of more than 90,000 visitors.

A portion of every ticket sold on the journey has been donated to the Morgan Wallen Foundation (MWF), which supports Tennessee youth with the belief that all children deserve a chance to thrive, play and create through sports and music programs and recently hosted a “Help After Helene” Food Drive to aid in Hurricane Helene relief efforts.

The Big Loud/Mercury/Republic Records artist also gave fans the first taste of his forthcoming project on Friday with the release of “Love Somebody,” which he wrote alongside John Byron, Ashley Gorley, Jacob Kasher Hindlin, Elof Loelv and Ryan Vojtesak. Wallen then followed the single’s unveiling with the announcement of his inaugural Sand In My Boots Festival, set to take place this spring.
