Who Is Opening for Parker McCollum on the 2026 Tour?

Parker McCollum is deep into his biggest headlining year yet, rolling through arenas and amphitheaters across 2026. Like most country tours at this size, the support slot is not one act for the whole run. McCollum rotates a deep bench of openers, so the undercard changes depending on which city and night you catch. Here is who is opening, what each act brings, and where the tour heads next.

How the Support Lineup Works

McCollum does not carry a single opener across the entire tour. Instead, a group of artists splits the calendar, with each act covering a stretch of dates rather than the whole run. Some nights stack two support acts, so the bill in one city can look different from the show a few states over. The best move is to check the specific date before you buy, since the opener is the part of the night most likely to change from stop to stop.

Two names anchor the bill as direct support. Jake Worthington brings a '90s-traditionalist sound, and Max McNown is one of the hottest up-and-comers in country right now. Around them, a wider roster rotates through.

The 2026 Openers

Jake Worthington

A neotraditionalist with a classic, hard-country sound, Worthington gets some of the heaviest billing as direct support. His throwback approach pairs naturally with McCollum's Texas-country roots.

Max McNown

Max McNown is one of the fastest-rising names in the genre, carrying his own run of streaming hits into the support slot. On the nights he plays, he is closer to a co-headliner than a warmup.

Gary Allan

A genuine country veteran with decades of hits, Allan is the marquee legacy name on the roster. Catching him in a support slot is a real draw for longtime country fans.

Gabby Barrett

A powerhouse vocalist with crossover pop-country appeal, Barrett brings arena-sized singles to the dates she opens.

Josh Abbott Band

A Texas-country staple, the Josh Abbott Band is a natural fit for McCollum's home-state audience and a strong early-evening set.

Kassi Ashton

A bold, genre-bending performer, Ashton adds some edge and personality to the undercard on her dates.

William Beckmann

A Texas singer-songwriter with a rich, classic voice, Beckmann is one of the rising names getting a major platform on this tour.

Laci Kaye Booth

Laci Kaye Booth brings a dreamy, country-Americana sound and opens a stretch that includes the Florida dates.

Owen Riegling

Owen Riegling is a Canadian country breakout rounding out the roster on select dates, worth showing up early for.

Other names rotate through as well, including Mike Ryan, Tyler Halverson, Annie Bosko, Vincent Mason, and Aubrie Sellers, so the exact undercard depends on the night.

Where Parker McCollum Is Playing Next

The summer and fall run keeps McCollum busy coast to coast. Upcoming stops include San Diego on June 19, Los Angeles on June 20, and Sacramento on June 21, before the tour swings through Idaho, Oregon, and Washington to close out June. July brings a Southeast run through Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia, an Ohio stand in Cuyahoga Falls and Dayton, and a marquee night at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado on July 30. From there the tour rolls through Kansas City, Omaha, the Northeast, West Virginia, the Carolinas, and Alabama into September, with a UK and Ireland leg in late October and early November before wrapping in Phoenix on November 16.

You can see the full, current routing on the Parker McCollum artist page, which pulls live dates as they are announced.

Getting Tickets

Because the openers rotate, the best approach is to pick the act you most want to see, then find the date and city where they are on the bill. Nights with Gary Allan or Gabby Barrett tend to draw extra interest, and the Red Rocks date is one of the marquee stops of the run. For everything else, check the specific date on the artist page before buying, since the undercard is the part of the night most likely to shift from city to city.
