BANDING BACK TOGETHER: RASCAL FLATTS EMBARKS ON LIFE IS A HIGHWAY TOUR
Multi-Award-Winning CMA Country Trio Makes Debut at Orlando’s Kia Center on April 4
ORLANDO, FLORIDA [October 1, 2024] – Emerging from hiatus with renewed passion, country music icons and multi-platinum-selling act Rascal Flatts embark on their Life Is A Highway Tour in 2025, celebrating 25 years of hits and their impact as one of the most influential groups in country music. Joining the ensemble across the tour as special guests are Lauren Alaina and Chris Lane. Produced by Live Nation, the trio is taking care of unfinished business and has mapped a 21-city tour across the U.S., delivering a thank you to the fans who have supported them throughout their long career. Rascal Flatts make their debut at Orlando’s Kia Center on Thursday, April 4, 2025. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, October 4 at 10 a.m. ET.
The tour will also offer a variety of VIP packages and experiences for fans to elevate their concert experience. Packages vary and include premium tickets, an invitation to the Rascal Flatts VIP Lounge, an autographed, limited-edition tour poster, VIP exclusive gift item and more.

The group reflected: “In 2020, we announced the farewell tour after being on the road extensively for 20 years. To put it simply, we needed a break. Then COVID hit and our plans came to a screeching halt, like the rest of the world. Since then, we’ve been able to revisit our unique and special experience as a band and we’re ready to get out on the road again. It’s hard to believe that next year will be the 25th anniversary of Rascal Flatts, and that felt like the perfect time to get back in front of the fans who have given us so much."
Together, the trio and their fans will reflect on their iconic catalog of hits including “Bless The Broken Road,” “My Wish” and “What Hurts The Most” – always soulful, engaging and delivered with a positive, universal message – as well as a string of successes that continue to place Rascal Flatts among the modern musical elite.
Hailed as one of the most influential groups in modern country history, Rascal Flatts is a chart-topping trio created by vocalist Gary LeVox, multi-instrumentalist Jay DeMarcus and guitarist Joe Don Rooney. Since their founding in 2000, they have cemented their place in music history with genre-crossing hits like breakout singles. “Together the Grand Ole Opry members have racked up 17 number-one hits, over 23.4 million albums sold, 35 million digital downloads and over 12 billion total lifetime streams, with 4.6 billion streams on Spotify alone, while also selling over 11 million concert tickets and earning more than 40 trophies from the ACA, ACM, AMA, CMA, People’s Choice and more, making them one of the most awarded country groups of the past two decades.

Grand Ole Opry member and Big Loud Records powerhouse Alaina is unlocking a new era with her debut EP on the label out now. The six-song set, aptly titled “Unlocked,” reintroduces the multi-faceted star, stripping back every layer and allowing fans to know her better than ever before. Alaina has earned three chart-topping hits: RIAA Platinum-certified “Road Less Traveled,” nine-time platinum “What Ifs” with her childhood friend Kane Brown and three-time platinum “One Beer” with labelmate HARDY + Devin Dawson. The Georgia-born force, who American Songwriter notes is “on a seemingly limitless upward trajectory,” has shared the stage with Alan Jackson, Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood, Luke Bryan, Martina McBride and more. She has headlined two raved-about tours, the sold-out That Girl Was Me Tour and the bar-raising On Top Of The World Tour presented by Maurices. The gold-medal vocalist has performed on some of the highest-profile stages in the world including PBS’ A Capitol Fourth, “Dancing with the Stars,” “American Idol,” CBS’ “Beyond The Edge,” ABC’s “The Bachelorette,” “TODAY,” “Good Morning America,” “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” “The Tonight Show,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” “Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade,” ABC's “CMA Fest” specials, CMA and ACM Awards, Nickelodeon's “All That,” Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day halftime performance, MLB's World Series national anthem performance and a performance at the White House for President Obama.
Introducing “a decidedly more country sound” (MusicRow), Lane is launching his next chapter with the current chart-rising single “Find Another Bar” featured on his EP “From Where I’m Sippin’” and the deluxe edition (Red Street Records/Voyager Records). With a spree of releases in 2021 and 2022, Lane’s catalog expanded with hits like “Dancin’ In The Moonlight” with Alaina, “Howdy,” “Stop Coming Over,” “Summer Job Money,” “Fill Them Boots,” “Ain’t Even Met You Yet,” “HIXTAPE: Vol. 2” smash “Small Town On It” with Scotty McCreery, plus Dustin Lynch summer jam “Tequila On A Boat,” all adding to his 2.2+ billion total career streams, three number ones – two-time platinum “Big, Big Plans,” three-time platinum “I Don’t Know About You” and platinum “Fix” – and five certified singles including two-time platinum “Take Back Home Girl” with Tori Kelly. The Kernersville, NC, native has appeared on “Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade,” “TODAY,” “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” “Late Night with Seth Meyers” and “Conan” and was featured in PEOPLE’s 2019 Sexiest Man Alive issue. He’s scored nominations at iHeartRadio Music Awards, ACM Awards and Radio Disney Music Awards.
