Koe Wetzel To Kick Off 45-City ‘Night Champion World Tour’ In May
Koe Wetzel is returning to the road this summer on “The Night Champion World Tour.”
The 45-city headlining run will also include Shane Smith & The Saints, Ole 60, Wyatt Flores, Corey Kent, Wade Bowen, Bayker Blankenship, Kolby Cooper and Logan Jahnke as support across varying dates. The trek throughout the U.S., Canada and Australia will feature stops in Tacoma, Boston, Austin, Baton Rouge, Chicago, Knoxville, and many more through Oct. 30, with a Nashville date at Bridgestone Arena set for Aug. 8.
Fans can register for early access to tickets for the U.S. dates of the tour here. Artist presale starts March 10, with general on sale for all North American dates beginning March 13. Australian dates are on sale now.
“It’s kind of crazy that I’m not dead or in jail with everything that’s gone on in my life,” says Wetzel. “Coming into 2026 and this tour, I feel like I’m the best version of myself I’ve ever been. I survived the night side of me. I’m coming out of it a champion.”
Wetzel’s live show has grown from Texas dive bars to sold-out amphitheaters and arenas nationwide, drawing more than 250,000 fans on his 2024 “Damn Near Normal Tour” alone. The upcoming tour promises to deliver new tracks like “Surrounded” and “Time Goes On” plus 2025’s most-played song at country radio, the triple Platinum, five-week No. 1 “High Road,” and fan favorites including “February 28, 2016.”
