ChristinaKNOXVILLE, TENN. – “I’m coming home,” Morgan Wallen posted Monday, announcing his East Tennessee homecoming concert at Knoxville’s Neyland Stadium on Sunday, September 22. In a video set to “Rocky Top,” millions of fans had viewed it by lunch, snatching up hotel rooms across the city in anticipation of tickets going on sale Wednesday morning. The news has been met with such fervor that the 11-time Billboard Music Awards-winner has now added a second and final hometown show for Friday, September 20. Tickets go on-sale beginning Thursday, July 18 at 11 a.m. EST at MorganWallen.com.

With over 150,000 fans expected to attend across both nights, Wallen becomes the first artist in the venue’s nearly-100-years’ history to ever play two nights as the One Night At A Time 2024 tour stop marks the first time the country singer has returned to Knoxville on tour since headlining the Tennessee Valley Fair in 2019.
Fans can also purchase VIP Packages, which may include premium tickets, guided backstage tour, group photo on the stage, invitation to the Morgan Wallen VIP Lounge, VIP-exclusive gift item, and more. VIP package contents vary based on the offer selected. For more information, visit vipnation.com.
Upon sharing the news earlier this week, Wallen stated, “I’ve had the honor of playing in a lot of college, MLB and NFL stadiums the past two years, but getting to play to my hometown at Neyland Stadium, nothing tops this for a boy from East Tennessee.”
With a portion of every ticket purchased to his live shows benefiting The Morgan Wallen Foundation (MWF), the nonprofit recently donated $100,000 to the community of Jefferson City to improve and renovate two local baseball fields. With $80,000 going toward Roy Harmon Field via the City Parks Department and $20,000 toward New Market Field via Jefferson City Little League, the renovations include new infields, bases, dug outs, press boxes, backstop padding, fencing, and more.

With just 11 dates remaining on One Night At A Time in the U.S., Wallen will kick-off his first-ever European tour on Aug. 28 in Stockholm, Sweden. The seven-show run will include additional stops in Copenhagen, Denmark; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Glasgow, U.K., and more before concluding with two back-to-back nights in Dublin, Ireland.

ABOUT MORGAN WALLEN
When 11-time 2023 Billboard Music Awards-winner and Top Male Artist Morgan Wallen released his third studio album One Thing At A Time in 2023, its instant success left The New York Times proclaiming Wallen as “one of the biggest stars in pop, period.” One Thing At A Time has remained atop the all-genre Billboard 200 chart for 19 non-consecutive weeks, surpassing Garth Brooks’ Ropin’ the Wind with the most weeks at No. 1 for a country album and was the most-streamed album of the year on Spotify. The album’s 6X-Platinum single “Last Night” reeled in over 1.5 billion streams globally, becoming the most-streamed song of any genre in the U.S. across Apple Music and Spotify, and the longest running No. 1 solo song in Hot 100 history (16 weeks total). Recent collab with Post Malone, “I Had Some Help,” debuted at country radio with 167 first week adds, becoming only the second single in chart history to debut with the support of all reporting stations, opening at No. 15 on the Mediabase charts. Since its release, “I Had Some Help” has remained No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 all-genre charts for six weeks, becoming the longest-running No. 1 of 2024.
With 14 chart-toppers at country radio, Wallen played for five countries / three continents in 2023 for his One Night At A Time World Tour stadium tour. Performing to over 2.4 million fans, One Night At A Time was named a Pollstar and Billboard Country Tour of the Year, surpassing attendance records in numerous stops; including Ohio Stadium, where Wallen became the largest weekend ever for the venue. The 36-show 2024 extension of One Night At A Time takes Wallen to 24 additional stadium-plays and will include Wallen’s first European run with seven shows this fall. Wallen donates a portion from every ticket sold to his Morgan Wallen Foundation.
