The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo has announced its 2016 concert lineup, and -- no surprise here -- the event will feature some of country music's biggest acts.

The Band Perry will open the rodeo on March 1, and performances are scheduled through March 20. The 2016 Houston Rodeo concert lineup features a number of huge stars, including Miranda Lambert, Kenny Chesney, Keith Urban, Florida Georgia Line, Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Little Big Town, Brett Eldredge, Cole Swindell, Darius Rucker, Billy Currington and Brad Paisley, the latter of whom will be making his 10th appearance at the event; Paisley first performed on the Houston Rodeo stage in 2001. A complete list of this year's performers and their concert dates is below.

Tickets for all of 2016's Houston Rodeo concerts are scheduled to go on sale on Jan. 16 through RodeoHouston.com. Season tickets are currently available via the website.
