Parker McCollum announces Bridgeport stop on 2026 Tour


Chart-topping, multi-Platinum Country star, Parker McCollum, announces dates for the second leg of his 2026 Parker McCollum Tour. As part of the second leg of his massive 2026 Parker McCollum Tour, the multi-Platinum hitmaker will bring his chart-topping sound to the Hartford HealthCare Amphitheater in Bridgeport on August 6, 2026, marking one of the most anticipated live music events coming to the state next summer.

Fresh off a whirlwind run that has solidified him as one of the busiest and most in-demand touring acts in Country music, McCollum is once again gearing up to deliver the full arena-level experience audiences have come to expect. Fans can look forward to a powerhouse setlist featuring multiple #1 singles and fan-favorites—tracks that have helped him build a deep connection with listeners across the country.

Tickets and Presale Details

Tickets will be available starting with an exclusive Citi presale beginning Tuesday, November 18. Additional presales will roll out through the week before general on-sale opens Friday, November 21 at 10 AM via parkermccollum.com. Citi cardmembers will receive advance access to tickets from November 18 at 10 AM through November 20 at 10 PM through the Citi Entertainment program.

A Star-Powered Supporting Lineup

McCollum will be joined on the road by an impressive roster of Country talent, including Josh Abbott Band, Gary Allan, Kassi Ashton, Gabby Barrett, William Beckmann, Laci Kaye Booth, Annie Bosko, Tyler Halverson, Vincent Mason, Max McNown, Owen Riegling, Logan Ryan Band, Aubrie Sellers, Jackson Wendell, and Jake Worthington — ensuring that every stop on the tour is a full-scale celebration of rising and established artists in the genre.

A Career Reaching New Heights

The Texas native continues to ride a wave of well-deserved success, propelled in part by his 2023 album Never Enough, which confirmed his standing as one of Country music’s most compelling new voices. His Burn It Down Tour throughout 2024 saw him selling out legendary venues and becoming a mainstay on the biggest festival stages in America. Critics and industry leaders alike have praised his ascent, with Rolling Stone, CMT, SiriusXM, Billboard, RIAA, and others naming him an artist to watch.

McCollum’s momentum has been matched by a string of awards and accolades, including multiple ACM and CMA nominations, a growing list of #1 singles, and record-breaking live performances — including a sold-out RODEOHOUSTON debut in 2022 before more than 73,000 fans. Now, with the release of his self-titled fifth studio album, PARKER MCCOLLUM, the singer-songwriter is entering a defining moment in his career, showcasing his richest and most polished work to date.
