[2/3/25]: Willie Nelson will take his traveling Outlaw Music Festival on the road in 2025 with a lineup topped by Bob Dylan, Billy Strings, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats, and more. The marathon tour will kick off on May 13th in Phoenix, AZ and travel coast to coast until it wraps on September 19th at Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy, WI [ticketing information].
Touted as the 10th-anniversary edition of Nelson’s traveling roadshow, Outlaw Music Festival 2025 will feature a rotating cast of performers including Sheryl Crow, Turnpike Troubadours, The Avett Brothers, Wilco, The Red Clay Strays, Lake Street Dive, Waxahatchee, Charles Wesley Godwin, Lucinda Williams, Bruce Hornsby & The Noisemakers, and Sierra Hull. Willow Avalon, Waylon Payne, Madeline Edwards, Lily Medla, Myron Elkins, and Tami Nelson will provide additional support.
“What an amazing lineup to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Outlaw Music Festival Tour,” Nelson reflected on the tour that began as a one-off show in Scranton, PA in 2016. “I can’t wait to join friends and family in bringing this celebration to the fans we love.”
An artist pre-sale for tickets to the 2025 Outlaw Music Festival tour will begin on Wednesday, February 5th at 10 a.m. local time. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Friday, February 7th at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster. Click below for a detailed list of lineups by date.
Like last year’s tour, Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan are the only acts scheduled to appear at every show. Unfortunately, last year also saw Willie miss eight dates due to an unspecified illness, only to make his triumphant return for his 4th of July Picnic in New Jersey. While Willie was away, his son Lukas Nelson filled in for the legendary 91-year-old singer-songwriter with a set of his most enduring songs backed by the Nelson family.
Billy Strings’ dates on Outlaw Fest will occur amid his 2025 spring tour, set to run from April 3rd–5th in St. Augustine, FL through June 20th–21st in Lexington, KY. In mid-to-late May, Strings—who collaborated with Willie on their Grammy-nominated 2023 single “California Sober”—will help kick off the Outlaw Fest Tour in the Western United States with stops in Los Angeles (5/16), Nampa, ID (5/20), Spokane, WA (5/22), The Gorge Amphitheatre in Quincy, WA (5/25), and more before resuming his headlining tour.
