With the stadium packed with fans, Wallen started his tour with a little help from Drake, Andre Johnson, and local Houston hero, Mattress Mack. Following his usual entrance, the singer also highlighted his scandals over the last few years as the headlines played on the giant screen behind him. Not running from his past, Wallen even lit the stage on fire.
Outside of a memorable show, Wallen also celebrated the next generation of musicians and singers when he donated musical instruments to two local high schools. Releasing a statement, it read, “As part of Wallen’s ‘2025 Tour Give Back’ initiative, Morgan Wallen Foundation (MWF) is saying thank you to the communities that have welcomed Wallen in with open arms by supporting music programs in touring cities. To commemorate his tour kick off, Wallen donated musical instruments to two local Houston schools: James Madison High School and S.P. Waltrip High School.”

As for his tour, Wallen will travel to Madison, Wisconsin, for a concert at Camp Randall Stadium. And bringing a few friends with him, Ella Langley and Miranda Lambert will be on hand as special guests.
