Tickets for the Indiana shows go on sale via Ticketmaster on July 17 at 10 a.m. ET.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"\/>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tOn Instagram, Brooks teased the tour with a video that shows the two-time Grammy winner walking up to the iconic drum pod that redefined Brooks\u2019 touring. \u201cHow long has it been, old girl? Thirty years?\u201d he\u2019s heard asking, as the video shifts to footage of Brooks during his 1996-1998 The Garth Brooks World Tour, with Brooks running and jumping onto that same drum pod.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cA little dusty,\u201d he continues. \u201cYou know what? Maybe it\u2019s time, maybe it\u2019s time we put you back to work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAs Brooks laughs, the video pans out to show Brooks\u2019 \u201cg\u201d logo written in the dust of the drum pod. From there, the video spells out his intentions with the words, \u201cThe arena tour is coming.\u201d In a statement, Brooks said, \u201cGoing back into the arenas is about putting the stadium show in a box. The excitement gets multiplied by the intimacy. Every seat is a great seat. This is personal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe Garth Brooks World Tour, which ran from March 12, 1996 to Nov. 2, 1998, featured over 300 shows across the United States, Canada and Ireland, and was one of the decade\u2019s highest-grossing concert tours. The trek supported Brooks\u2019 1995 album <em>Fresh Horses <\/em>and his 1997 LP <em>Sevens<\/em>. The tour also spurred the <a rel=\"nofollow\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.garthbrooks.com\/news\/from-double-live-to-triple-live-deluxe-and-the-latest-limited-series-boxed-set\" data-type=\"link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.garthbrooks.com\/news\/from-double-live-to-triple-live-deluxe-and-the-latest-limited-series-boxed-set\" target=\"_blank\">release<\/a> of his <em>Double Live<\/em> album in November 1998. <em>Double Live <\/em>featured over 100 minutes of music, including songs such as \u201cStanding Outside The Fire,\u201d \u201cThe River\u201d and \u201cPapa Loved Mama,\u201d that were recorded during his 1996-1998 World Tour; the set debuted at the top of the all-genre Billboard 200 and stayed at the chart\u2019s pinnacle for five weeks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThat 1996-1998 tour also marked Brooks\u2019 final tour before he announced his retirement in 2000, though Brooks came out of retirement in 2009 for a series of shows at the Wynn Las Vegas. He returned to the road for The Garth Brooks World Tour from 2014-2017 and The Garth Brooks Stadium Tour from 2018-2022, and returned to Vegas for the Garth Brooks\/ Plus ONE residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace from 2023-2025.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ubpass.co\/billboard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/2HpFicp.png\" alt=\"Billboard VIP Pass\" style=\"max-width: 100%;height: auto\"\/><br \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Garth Brooks is headed back on the road this year!
