Country music superstar Tim McGraw has officially unveiled his highly anticipated Pawn Shop Guitar Tour for 2026, a sprawling 33-date North American run that blends stadium spectacles, amphitheater vibes, and arena energy. Announced on February 3, 2026, the tour draws its name from McGraw’s personal story—he once pawned his high school class ring to buy his first guitar, a life-changing move that launched his legendary career. The tour also coincides with the upcoming release of his new single, “Pawn Shop Guitar,” dropping early next month.
McGraw will deliver his catalog of classics—”Humble and Kind,” “Live Like You Were Dying,” “Where the Green Grass Grows,” and more—alongside fresh tracks in high-energy shows. The lineup features rotating special guests: The Chicks and Lady A for select stadium dates, plus 49 Winchester and Timothy Wayne on various stops for a dynamic mix of generations in country music.
The tour includes a special appearance at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo on March 21, 2026, before the main summer leg kicks off on July 9, 2026, in Bethel, New York. It spans the U.S. and Canada through late September, hitting major markets in the Northeast, Midwest, South, and beyond. Note that initial announcements show no West Coast dates or a Nashville stop, though more could be added.
