Morgan Wallen has officially begun his 2025 stadium tour "I’m the Problem" with two performances in Houston, Texas, on June 20 and 21 at NRG Stadium. The two shows launched a 19-show stadium tour that will take the country singer through the United States and Canada throughout the summer.
Before launching his "I'm the Problem" stadium tour, Morgan Wallen took to Instagram to excite fans. In a reel posted June 19, 2023, one day before the Houston opener, Wallen posted a short behind-the-scenes video with the caption, "'I'm The Problem Tour' loading...". The short clip, which has rehearsal footage along with tour imagery, quickly got the fanbase's excited attention for the upcoming live shows.
Every night in Houston, Wallen performed a 26-song set that mixed fan-friendly hits with new ones from his latest album, also titled I’m the Problem, that had just been released in May. Fan favorites like “Last Night,” “Sand in My Boots,” and “Superman” elicited loud fan reactions, while brand-new songs gave audiences something else to experience from the album that just debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
Wallen had company on stage. Country artists Corey Kent and Koe Wetzel were the opening acts for the shows in Houston. Other cities will see the tour have big names including Miranda Lambert, Brooks & Dunn, Thomas Rhett, and others, depending on the location.
After the Houston show, Wallen will take his I'm the Problem tour to other major stadiums, including stops in Miami Gardens, Santa Clara, Seattle, Glendale, Foxborough, Toronto, and Edmonton. Each show will feature a full lineup of live music and will include some other acts such as Ella Langley, Gavin Adcock, and Anne Wilson on certain dates.
Tickets for the tour were quickly sold out when they went on sale earlier this year (as early as May 16 of this year). Ticket prices were close to $100+ for some standard seats to over $600 for premium seats, depending on the venue. Regardless of ticket prices, the sellout emphasizes the size of Wallen's growing popularity and the positive reception of his latest album.
In addition to the music, the tour raises money for the Morgan Wallen Foundation, which works to supply resources for youth sports and music education. A chunk of ticket sales will support these efforts and give the tour a community footprint beyond the shows.
With sold-out shows, a talented cast of guest artists, and a Billboard-topping album to promote, Wallen's stadium tour in 2025 is on track to being one of country music's biggest tours of the year.
