Garth Brooks Playing Gillette Stadium This Fall

FOXBOROUGH, MA — Country star Garth Brooks will perform at Gillette Stadium for the first time this fall.

Brooks' show on Oct. 9 marks the return of live music to the stadium, following the coronavirus pandemic. It's also the first time in six years the seven-time CMA Entertainer of the Year will return to the Boston area.

A Gillette Stadium spokesperson said The Garth Brooks Stadium Tour has shattered attendance records across the country, setting all-time attendance records in over 75 cities thus far. Tickets for the Gillette Stadium show go on sale at 10 a.m., Friday, 16 and will be $94.95 each.

All tickets are reserved seating, and there is an eight-ticket limit per purchase. Tickets will be available online at www.ticketmaster.com/garthbrooks, by phone through the Garth Brooks Ticketmaster line at 1-877-654-2784, or through the Ticketmaster mobile app.

The concert is a welcome announcement for country fans, following Kenny Chesney postponing his summer tour stop at Gillette Stadium until 2022.
