Russell Dickerson announces Round 1 of RUSSELLMANIA Tour 2026. Following the runaway success of last year’s sold-out tour, Dickerson is set to return bigger than ever—bringing his signature “high-octane” (Billboard) live show to
Acrisure Amphitheater on Saturday, May 30, 2026 with special guest
Niko Moon.
Russell Dickerson is “hitting new heights" (Billboard) with his highly acclaimed new album, FAMOUS BACK HOME, which blends the heartfelt authenticity fans have always cherished with the raw, electric energy of his live shows. The “bold and bright” (CMT) record marks a new chapter for “one of country’s hottest acts” (Holler). At its core, FAMOUS BACK HOME reflects Dickerson as a hitmaker, husband, father, and proud hometown hero. This past week, Dickerson’s hit single “Happen To Me” was certified RIAA PLATINUM—an achievement that highlights its explosive popularity and enduring impact. The track has become Dickerson’s biggest streaming debut to date with over 187 million global streams. Continuing its climb on the charts, the single is cruising through the Top 5 on Country Radio, reached No. 1 on SiriusXM’s The Highway and multi-week No. 1 in Canada and the UK’s Country Radio Airplay Charts, and continues to ascend the Billboard Hot 100—while also landing in the Top 25 on Hot AC and earning a position on the Top 40 chart.
