Brooks & Dunn are heading back out on the road this year, with Scotty McCreery serving as their opening act for all dates. The award-winning duo, made up of Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn, announce their REBOOT 2023 Tour, kicking off on Thursday, May 4 in Kansas City, Missouri, playing in 17 cities, before wrapping up on June 17 in Greensboro, North Carolina.
“Last year, you all reminded us just how much fun it is to walk out on that stage and share the night with ya! We love what we do, but we’re just surfing your wave …can’t wait!!” Brooks says.
“The Brooks and Dunn posse rides again,” adds Dunn. “More excited to hit the big stage as we ever have been! Unbelievable band of friends.…annnnnd YOU! Together, let’s rock the house!!”
McCreery, who just kicked off his own headlining Damn Strait Tour, will gladly return to being an opener for Brooks & Dunn.
“Having been a huge fan of their music all my life, going out on the road with Kix and Ronnie is a dream come true for me,” McCreery says. “I can’t wait for this tour to begin!”
Brooks & Dunn also shared their excitement about the REBOOT 2023 Tour on social media.

Brooks & Dunn spent part of last year on their REBOOT 2022 Tour, with a variety of opening acts, including Walker Hayes, Gabby Barrett, Jon Pardi, Jordan Davis, Riley Green and more.
When McCreery does join Brooks & Dunn, he will likely bring along his wife, Gabi and son, Avery, on the road with him, since his goal is to spend as much time with his family as possible, even while on the road.
“Next year we’re gonna bring out a baby bus, so we’ll get him out there,” McCreery told Everything Nash. “Gabi will be out there a lot with me too, so he’ll have his own little crib and everything. It’ll be a completely different way to do the road for me. I’ve been doing it now over ten years. I’ve got my system, so this is gonna throw that for a loop, but I can’t wait. It’s gonna be awesome.”
