Country music icon Alan Jackson concluded his touring career with a star-studded farewell performance at a sold-out Nissan Stadium in Nashville on Saturday, June 27, 2026.
The 67-year-old Country Music Hall of Famer is retiring from the road due to his ongoing battle with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a nonfatal chronic neuropathy condition.

Despite a one-hour weather delay caused by lightning and rain, tens of thousands of fans filled the stadium for "Alan Jackson: Last Call - The Finale."
The event featured live tributes from 16 prominent artists before Jackson took the stage for a two-hour set of his own hits.
Family and Fellow Artists Reflect on Jackson's Legacy
Prior to the performances, family members and fellow musicians gathered on the red carpet to share their personal reflections on Jackson's life and career.
His nephew, Adam Wright, recalled the country legend's generosity during his early days struggling financially in Nashville.
"I always loved the '56 Chevy Bel Air," said Adam Wright. "It was a very sweet thing, very thoughtful thing for him to do.
Very much like what my granddad would have done."
His brother, Brian Wright, also shared childhood memories of watching his uncle rehearse with his early band, Dixie Steel.
"I remember the song. I remember the light shining on the instruments.
I remember Budweiser cans laying around and everybody having a good time," said Brian Wright.
"Next thing you know, he moves off to Nashville and has a long career in country music."
