Country music fans have something to cheer about as Keith Urban has announced his highly anticipated return to the stage with the “High and Alive World Tour.” The country star is hitting the road for the first tour in three years, marking a significant highlight for fans who have eagerly awaited his live performances. Launching in May 2025, this tour promises to be a blend of Urban’s greatest hits, new material, and the electric atmosphere that his concerts are renowned for. Urban is set to deliver unforgettable experiences across North America, with possible international dates yet to be confirmed to cement its status as a truly global tour.

Keith Urban’s “High and Alive World Tour” kicks off on May 22, 2025, in Orange Beach, Alabama. As it crisscrosses the United States, the tour will include stops in cities such as Chicago, Nashville, Wantagh, Hershey, and Holmdel. It’s a journey that promises not just music but a chance for attendees to engage with a communal spirit of celebration and joy. Urban’s statement on the tour underscores this, emphasizing how playing live is a vital aspect of his artistry. He remarked, “Looking out from a stage and seeing people singing, forgetting about all the stress in their lives, cutting loose, and feeling ALIVE – that’s what it’s about for me.”

Joining Urban on stage are up-and-coming country acts Chase Matthew, Alana Springsteen, and Karley Scott Collins. These artists bring their unique styles and energies to the stage, supporting what promises to be a vibrant and diverse series of performances. Urban’s concerts have always been a mix of non-stop guitar riffs and melodic tunes that showcase his extensive repertoire, which includes twenty-four #1 songs like “Long Hot Summer,” “Days Go By,” and “Somebody Like You.” The setlists will likely feature selections from his latest album, “High,” as well as spontaneous moments that keep both Urban and his audiences on their toes.

Fans eager to experience this live spectacle should mark their calendars for the ticket sales, which will begin on December 13 at 10:00 AM local time. Tickets will be available through major ticketing platforms such as Ticketmaster and secondary markets like Vivid Seats and SeatGeek. With a presale on December 12, fans are advised to act quickly, as high demand and Urban’s wide appeal could lead to sold-out shows.

In addition to the “High and Alive World Tour,” Urban is also set to enchant audiences with his “High In Vegas” residency. Scheduled to take place at the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas, this residency consists of ten shows wrapping up in February 2025. The Las Vegas stints have become a hallmark of Urban’s performances, offering a chance for fans to see him in a more intimate and exclusive setting.

Urban’s return to touring comes after a prolific period in his career, solidified by the release of his 11th studio album, “High,” which debuted in the Billboard Country Albums chart. An Australian-born artist with two decades of success, Urban has consistently topped the charts and earned numerous accolades, including Grammy Awards and CMA Entertainer of the Year titles.

For Keith Urban, this tour represents more than just a series of concerts; it’s about reconnecting with his fans and sharing the live music experience that has defined much of his career. With an evocative blend of old hits, contemporary tracks, and the energetic presence of supporting acts, the “High and Alive World Tour” is poised to be a major event on the 2025 music calendar. Fans should prepare for a night of music that, in Urban’s own words, is set to be “the best night of your life.”
