NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Garth Brooks is bringing his arena tour to central Arkansas early next year. The country star will perform inside Simmons Bank Arena, across the river in North Little Rock, on Friday, Feb. 5, with a second show the next night, Saturday, Feb. 6, 2027. Those two dates open the 2027 stretch of the tour called Blame It All On My Roots.
Sales begin at 10 a.m. Central time on Friday, Nov. 20, through Ticketmaster. Every seat carries the same $154.50 price, which breaks down as a $140 base ticket, a $4.50 facility charge and a $10 service charge. Local sales tax is added on top of that amount.
Arkansas is the first U.S. city announced for the tour in 2027, according to a release from the singer’s team. That release says the tour sold more than half a million tickets during its first few months of shows in 2026.
It has been a while since Brooks performed in the Little Rock area. His last run here came in late 2014 at the same building, which was then known as Verizon Arena. Before that, the release says, you have to go back to 1991, when he opened for Reba McEntire in June and returned that fall as a headliner.
Brooks said in the release that Arkansas is a land of common sense where audiences know their country music inside and out, and that he could not pick a better place to launch the 2027 leg. Fans who want seats should plan to be online when sales open on Nov. 20, since two shows in one market can draw heavy demand. The arena sits on the north side of the Arkansas River, a short drive from downtown Little Rock.
