Garth Brooks has spent the summer touting a tour announcement but Monday the reigning CMA entertainer of the year had different news he wanted to break.
This fall Brooks will become the first music act to headline Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Ind.
Brooks made the announcement during a press conference at WME in Nashville.
It has been an active summer for Brooks. After wrapping his three-and-a-half-year comeback tour Garth Brooks World Tour with Trisha Yearwood at the end of 2017, he planned to take much of 2018 off work. However, Brooks is in the midst of renovating his recording studio, recently released his rollicking new single "All Day Long,” revealed his new studio album would be in stores next year and that a live album is also in production.
Brooks, an unprecedented six-time CMA entertainer of the year, has sold more than 148 million albums to make him the top-selling solo artist in U.S. history. His last tour sold more than 6.3 million tickets, which makes it the biggest North American tour in history and the top-selling American tour in the world. The “Friends in Low Places” singer is a member of the International Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Country Music Hall of Fame and was recently inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame.
