Garth Brooks Announces First Alabama Tour Stops

Garth Brooks has revealed a new set of World Tour dates, this time in Birmingham, Ala.

Brooks and wife Trisha Yearwood will make their return to Birmingham in mid-June. Brooks has not played a concert in the city in 19 years. The shows are set for June 12 at 7PM and June 13 at 7PM and 10:30PM, all at Legacy Arena at the BJCC. Tickets will cost a total of $74.99, including taxes, fees and service charges.

Tickets for the concerts will go on sale on April 17 at 10AM CT. A limit of eight tickets per purchase will be in effect. Tickets will be available through Tickemaster.com or by phone at 1-800-745-3000 or 1-866-448-7849.

Brooks and Yearwood began their World Tour in Chicago in September, stopping in Tulsa, Okla., Denver, Colo., Sacramento, Calif., and numerous other cities in the months since. The trek is expected to last as long as three years.

“For me, I don’t care about the dollar bill bottom line, I care about the memories of, did I have fun there? Did we get to do stuff as a crew there, as a band there?” Brooks says of selecting cities for the tour. “You betcha, we’re going back to all the fun places.”

Brooks is nominated at the upcoming 2015 ACM Awards for Entertainer of the Year -- a nod he says that he didn't see coming.

“When they were giving out nominations for the ACMs, this tour was two or three months old. That’s a sweet nod,” Brooks says. “So whether you win or not, it’s like, can’t believe you’re in it, so it feels cool.”
