Country music legend Alan Jackson is officially wrapping up his touring days — and he did it in style.
Over the weekend, Jackson took the stage at Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum for what he confirmed was his final road show. In front of a packed house of 14,000 fans, the Country Music Hall of Famer made the heartfelt announcement.
“Y’all may have heard that I’m kinda winding down,” he said from the stage. “In fact, this is my last road show of my career.” The crowd erupted in applause as Jackson held back emotion. “Y’all are gonna make me tear up up here,” he added with a smile.
But the news wasn’t all bittersweet — Jackson also hinted at a proper farewell on the horizon. “We’re planning a big finale show in Nashville next summer sometime,” he teased. “We just felt like we had to end it where it all began — Nashville, Tennessee. Music City. I gotta do the last one there.”
Milwaukee fans were treated to a memorable night as Jackson delivered hit after hit, including fan favorites like “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere,” “Gone Country,” “Livin’ On Love,” and “Remember When.”
Looking back on his incredible journey, Jackson reflected, “It’s been a long, sweet ride. I’ve really lived the American dream. I’m so blessed.”
With nearly 60 million albums sold, 60+ singles (including 35 No. 1 hits), and more than 150 major awards, Alan Jackson’s legacy is undeniable. Known for his heartfelt, down-to-earth songwriting, he’s been a true voice of country music for over three decades.
@chanobangz Florida got its last Alan Jackson show last night. Glad I got to see it. Next year, he plans on his last show ever in Nashville. We don’t get legends like this twice. Thank you for the music, Mr. Jackson. #alanjackson #countrymusic #legend #thankyou #florida #country #Final #fyp
In 2019, Jackson shared that he has been living with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a genetic neurological condition that affects balance and mobility. Despite the challenges, he continued to tour — even donating a portion of ticket sales to the CMT Research Foundation, helping raise over $2.25 million.
“It’s something I inherited from my daddy,” he shared in a candid interview. “There’s no cure for it, and it’s been affecting me for years. I know I’m stumbling around on stage, and I’m starting to feel more unsteady, even just standing at the microphone. It’s tough.”
Still, Jackson remains grateful. “Thank y’all for supporting my music all these years,” he told the crowd. “Thank you for coming to the shows, buying the records, and having a good time with us. I’m just so fortunate, so lucky.”
As Alan Jackson prepares for his final curtain call in Nashville, fans everywhere are reflecting on the music, memories, and moments he’s given us — and cheering him on as he rides off into the sunset.
