The “King of Country” is back! 17x CMA Entertainer of the Year nominee George Strait will kick off his arena tour early next year and this time, he’s bringing along one very special lady – Reba McEntire.

The superstar acts performed together for the first time in many years for a sold-out crowd at the Cowboy’s Stadium inaugural event in Dallas.  Selling out in less than an hour, fans and critics proclaimed the show one hot ticket!  The concert was hailed by the Dallas Morning News as “an extravaganza” that “showcased Strait at the pinnacle of his musical game” and Ft. Worth Star Telegram wrote “Reba McEntire’s performance was a breathtaking master’s class in effortless brilliance.”

With 57 number one hits, 33 multi-platinum albums and countless sold-out shows year after year, Strait who holds the record for the most CMA wins and a record 17 CMA Entertainer of the Year nominations, is known for giving fans exactly what they want and expect.  This year will be no exception.

“I can’t wait to get back out there and perform some of my new favorites from Twang along with hits the fans already love,” says Strait. “And with my friend Reba, we will make it a really spectacular night.”

  32. I wish that they were coming to Providence, RI or Boston, MA. Come on guys, add some New England dates. Love ya George and Reba!!!!!!!!!!

    Michael on November 3, 2009 at 8:21 pm
    • yes, please come to new england, meadowbrook in nh is great just saw alan jackson there.

      terry on November 4, 2009 at 12:05 am
      • Meadowbrook is too small. Tickets would be very very expensive. I saw Reba there last year & spent around $110/ticket. When I asked about George, they just laughed and said "we can't afford George". I agree though, MD is not close enough to New England. Add a New England show.

        keri on November 4, 2009 at 7:05 pm
        • They need to add one of the casinos in Connecticut. I saw george strait at Mohegan Sun and had the time of my life. Please come back to the northeast.

          Andrew on November 19, 2009 at 11:00 pm

    Jordan on November 3, 2009 at 4:07 pm
  37. What! No Texas tour dates…that's just WRONG!!

    Tracy on November 3, 2009 at 3:59 pm
  38. Any idea if there will be any tour dates in the midwest? Minneapolis for example? There are a lot of Canadian fans that have to travel quite some distance to see the shows.

    Ron on November 3, 2009 at 2:50 pm

    Buddy on November 3, 2009 at 2:39 pm
  41. I don't like George Strait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The last time he was in Wichita and stayed at the Marriott….all the good looking females were paraded in front of him to see who he wanted to spend the night with! And him a married man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will NEVER forget that. Yes, there are some songs I like, but NOT the man! Don't care who you are…..DO NOT cheat on your spouse! And he is just a singer! Now REBA is a FANTASTIC ENTERTAINER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love that lady!!!!!!

    Laura on November 3, 2009 at 2:31 pm
    • Heh, yeah, right. We really suppose to believe that he chose someone to spend the night with, especially there for all to watch. What have you been smoking? Do you really think he would do that knowing it would get back to his wife? This is just ridiculous. Stop spreading rumors that don't make sense.

      Tony on November 3, 2009 at 7:07 pm
    • I do not believe that for one minute. George cares too much about his family and reputation to do anything like that. You must have heard some stories that weren't true.

      Ann on November 4, 2009 at 3:16 am
    • Don't believe he would ' spend the night' with anyone other than his wife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      janiec on November 4, 2009 at 5:27 pm
    • Laura has issues obviously and doesn't know George, nice try drama queen

      Webb on November 4, 2009 at 5:40 pm
    • You don't like George Strait because he "supposedly" cheated on his wife. Do you know he did for an absolute fact??? Did you spend the entire time with him to be sure this happened? Well, let me enlighten you…Reba has "supposedly" cheated on her first husband as well. That is how Narvel and herself got together. I still and will forever be a fan of both of them no matter what they do. It is their life and they are the ones paying the consequences not us.

      Susan on November 4, 2009 at 5:48 pm
    • you are just mad cause you didn't get picked

      jim roberts on November 4, 2009 at 6:18 pm
    • You're ridiculous. Don't go saying stuff like that. If that were true, don't you think women would be coming out of the woodwworks asking for money, extortion etc. Get a life.

      Troubador on November 4, 2009 at 6:56 pm
    • Whatever!! You obviously don't know what you are talking about!!
      Good glad you're not going!! He wouldn't want you there!!

      Cindy on November 4, 2009 at 9:13 pm
    • I'd be interested to know where you got this information. I'm not buying it.

      Allison on November 4, 2009 at 11:40 pm
    • Not in a hundred million years,lady!George is "King of Country Music" for many reasons only one of which is he knows Norma is the only one who can fry his taters the way he likes them.They've been together since high school and traveled some long hard roads together.Just leave them alone…

      Krissi on November 6, 2009 at 5:51 pm
    • But DID he actually take a girl somewhere. Just doesn't seem like the type. A very private person.

      Sue on November 6, 2009 at 9:44 pm
    • People like you are trouble makers because your own life is so miserable.As long as george strait has been in country music i have never heard one bad thing about him.I believe he is a good man with alot of respect for his family and himself.People like you are trouble and should know what they are talking about before they spread rumors ugly rumors that can cause alot of problems you loser.

      blondie on November 9, 2009 at 11:41 am
    • How do you know he cheated on his wife, unless you were someone who he was really with! You can't believe everything you hear, as I am sure many women will say they slept with him just so they will be noticed. I don't hold any of that kind of crap as true.

      JSJ on November 9, 2009 at 12:11 pm
  42. I am a huge Reba fan and like George too! Sounds great!!

    Debbie on November 3, 2009 at 1:38 pm
  43. Come on .. I am northern Ohio… I travel to at least 4 each year.. 6 some.. at least give a close Pa or In or Il… Gosh.. I am going to have to do a lot of traveling for this tour. But how great.. George and Reba… wooooooooo yea

  44. This is an amazing news!!! The King and The Queen together in tour, I bet it'll be the best tour of the year!!! Can't wait for dates in California!!!

    rebs58 on November 3, 2009 at 8:36 am
    • Yes! COME to CALIFORNIA! I Love George, but Reba's my favorite & always has been! Love her TV program too! Watch all the reruns!

      KarenV. on November 6, 2009 at 12:08 am
