Brad Paisley will headline the NFL Draft Concert Series presented by Bud Light on Saturday, April 26, closing out the 2025 NFL Draft in Green Bay. The free event will take place at the Draft Theater near Lambeau Field.

“There’s nothing like football to bring people together and the NFL Draft is where it all begins,” said Paisley. “As a lifelong fan, I can’t wait to help close out an unforgettable weekend — with a little music and one heck of a party.”

Paisley is a three-time Grammy winner with nearly five-billion career streams. He is set to kick off his “Truck Still Works World Tour” on May 21.

“We’re excited to welcome one of country music’s biggest stars to the Draft,” said Tim Tubito, NFL Senior Director of Global Event Presentation & Entertainment. “Brad understands how football brings people together. His performance is our way of saying thank you to the fans, the prospects, and the city of Green Bay — and the perfect way to close out an unforgettable weekend.”

Paisley joins an elite list of performers who have helped bring the Draft to life through music through the years, including Tim McGraw, Dierks Bentley, Weezer, Motely Cru, Ice Cube, Marshmello, Kings of Leon, Fall Out Boy, Big Sean and more.

Milwaukee-based choir members from the James Weldon Johnson Foundation’s National Hymn Choir will sing “Lift Every Voice,” directed by Ben Bedroske, and singer-songwriter Stephen Wilson Jr., will sing the national anthem from the Draft Theater stage on the first day. As part of the weekend’s entertainment lineup, a drone show is set for Friday, April 25, following Rounds 2–3 of the Draft. In addition to the live performances, Titletown will host Draft Experience presented by Jersey Mike’s from April 24-26; this event invites fans to participate in a 40-yard dash, take on football drills, meet NFL Legends, grab photos with the Lombardi Trophy and more.

General fan viewing for the Draft Concert Series is free and standing room will be on a first-come first-served basis. The area will remain open throughout Draft programming. Fans can register now for free access through the NFL OnePass app or here. Registration is required and entry is on a first-come, first-served basis.
