THE FINAL CURTAIN CALL — Brooks & Dunn Announce “One Last Ride” 2026 Farewell Tour

Brooks & Dunn have just revealed the news fans both dreamed of and dreaded: the legendary duo will embark on their 2026 “One Last Ride” Farewell Tour, a sweeping journey across America that promises not only unforgettable performances but also a historic moment in country music. For more than three decades, Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn have reigned as the most successful duo in the genre, with countless awards, chart-topping hits, and sold-out arenas to their name. Now, as they prepare to take the stage one final time, the emotions are running high — for the artists and their fans alike.

The official announcement confirmed that the tour will stretch across major cities and beloved venues, giving audiences one last chance to sing along to the songs that have defined an era. From “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” to “My Maria,” “Neon Moon,” and “Red Dirt Road,” Brooks & Dunn’s catalog is not just a playlist of hits but a soundtrack to American life, filled with memories of dusty dance halls, summer nights, heartbreaks, and celebrations.

For Kix Brooks, the tour is both a farewell and a thank-you. “We’ve been blessed beyond words,” he said in a statement. “The fans have carried us all these years, and this tour is our way of giving them everything we’ve got, one last time.” Ronnie Dunn echoed the sentiment, noting that every city, every arena, and every song will feel like a homecoming celebration. “This isn’t about looking back with sadness,” he shared. “It’s about celebrating the ride — and what a ride it’s been.”

Indeed, that “ride” has been nothing short of extraordinary. Since their debut in 1991, Brooks & Dunn have become the best-selling country duo of all time, with more than 30 million albums sold and over 20 No. 1 singles. They’ve won CMA and ACM Duo of the Year awards a staggering number of times and were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2019. Along the way, they helped revive line-dancing culture, dominated radio airwaves, and filled stadiums with fans from every generation.

The 2026 farewell tour will bring all of that history full circle. Tour organizers promise a production that blends the nostalgia of their early honky-tonk days with the spectacle of their arena-filling power. Fans can expect special guests, surprise collaborations, and emotional tributes to the music that shaped them. Rumors are already swirling that several younger stars — artists like Lainey Wilson, Morgan Wallen, and Cody Johnson — may join them on select dates to honor their influence.

But beyond the lights and the music, what makes this tour historic is its emotional weight. For fans who grew up dancing to “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” in the 1990s, who nursed broken hearts under the glow of “Neon Moon,” or who found themselves in the stories of “Brand New Man,” this final tour is a chance to say goodbye, not just to a band, but to a chapter of their own lives.

Country music has always been about more than entertainment. It is about community, memory, and heritage. And Brooks & Dunn embody that truth better than most. Their songs are stitched into weddings, road trips, honky-tonks, and quiet nights at home. To watch them perform one last time will be to stand inside the living history of country music itself.

As the tour dates roll out, one thing is certain: tickets will be in high demand, and the shows will carry an energy unlike any other. Because when Brooks & Dunn take their “One Last Ride,” it won’t just be the end of a tour. It will be the end of an era.

For fans, this is the moment to circle the dates, gather friends, and prepare for a night where the music will not only be heard but deeply felt — perhaps for the last time.
