Luke Bryan Moves His Farm Tour Out West For 2025
Luke Bryan is making some changes to his annual Farm Tour, and one of those changes will be its location for 2025. That new location is California.
Luke said in a statement, “With the Farm Tour being such a unique type of show in rural towns we have to be really intentional on where we go in order to have the best experience for the fans all while lifting up the farming community and what they do for our country. I have always wanted to raise awareness for the West Coast farmer, and I’m so excited to get to do that this year.”
He adds. “Gonna be amazing.”
The three Farm Tour shows booked for mid-May are timed around the season finale of American Idol.

He recently talked about how his Farm Tour has grown. He said, “The Farm Tour has grown throughout the years, and the fact that we can set a stage up in a hayfield or some kind of field and people flock to it is what I envisioned when I created Farm Tour, and to obviously help some kids with scholarships and stuff like that. But the Farm Tour has grown every year, and it’s always something we look forward to. It’s really an exciting time to be able to just be out on a farm on a Fall night.”
Bryan’s Farm Tour partnerships have helped provide over nine million meals through programs that facilitate access to nutritious food for all people. He’s also awarded 84 college scholarships to students in farming families since the tour’s inception.
Luke has been a fixture on American Idol as a judge for a couple of years. What some people don’t know is American Idol actually had to talk him into being on the show.
He told us, “It’s funny, American Idol approached me. My thing was like, ‘Guys, I’m doing stadiums. I’m kinda at the pinnacle of my career, and can American Idol keep that going?’ I certainly didn’t want it to hurt at the time.”
He continued, “The American Idol brand was kind of roughed up. It wasn’t anybody’s fault. I think it had ran its course and they really had to do some talking to me to get me transitioning to a new form of my career.”
