The Garth Brooks/Plus ONE Residency Finale

Brooks himself expressed a mix of nostalgia and gratitude for the experience, stating he couldn't believe "it has come and gone, already."
The "Plus ONE" format has been lauded by critics and fans alike for its intimate and spontaneous nature. The show features Brooks performing solo, often joined by a rotating cast of musicians, including his wife, fellow country star Trisha Yearwood. This unique structure allows for a different setlist every night, showcasing his greatest hits like "The Thunder Rolls" and "Friends in Low Places" alongside deeper cuts and covers.

While the Vegas residency is ending, Brooks' schedule for 2025 and 2026 is punctuated by massive, high-profile concert events, proving his touring appeal remains unmatched. These dates are the focal point for fans who missed out on the Las Vegas tickets.
Headlining the 2025 Formula 1 United States Grand Prix

This appearance follows a solo concert Brooks held earlier in the year in Austin, Texas, where he played to nearly 100,000 fans. During that performance, he praised the passionate crowd and even gifted his guitar to a young fan, highlighting the emotional connection he maintains with his audience.
