The United States leg features stops at several stadiums across the country, including Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts; Soldier Field in Chicago, Illinois, and Nashville’s own Nissan Stadium.
“In Nashville, the fans are sometimes the last people that are thought of and that always bugged me,” Combs previously told The Tennessean. “It’s [like], ‘How do we put you in a cool shirt and make you awesome?’ You’re focusing your energy on all the wrong stuff. And not that [this] stuff’s not important. It is. But the first thing that should be important are the people [who] come to your shows.”
Combs’ World Tour kicks off on March 25 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. The international leg will begin on tour will begin on August 9 in Auckland, New Zealnd. The entire tour will wrap up at The O2 Arena in London, England on October 19.
The news comes only a day after Combs learned he was nominated for four CMA Awards. The North Carolina native received two nods, both as artist and producer, for Album of the Year, for his Growin’ Up album. He also is nominated for Male Vocalist of the Year, and the night’s highest honor, Entertainer of the Year.
Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning will serve as hosts of the 2022 CMA Awards. The 2022 CMA Awards will air live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday, November 9, at 8:00 PM ET on ABC.
