The three Farm Tour shows booked for mid-May are timed around the season finale of American Idol.
Luke Bryan, 2025 Farm Tour Dates:
- May 15 — Atwater, Calif. (Merced County) @ The Castle Airport
- May 16 — Clovis, Calif. (Fresno County) @ The Ponds at Harlan Ranch
- May 17 — Shafter, Calif. (Kern County) @ Sillect Farms
Luke has been a fixture on American Idol as a judge for a couple of years. What some people don’t know is American Idol actually had to talk him into being on the show.
He told us, “It’s funny, American Idol approached me. My thing was like, ‘Guys, I’m doing stadiums. I’m kinda at the pinnacle of my career, and can American Idol keep that going?’ I certainly didn’t want it to hurt at the time.”
He continued, “The American Idol brand was kind of roughed up. It wasn’t anybody’s fault. I think it had ran its course and they really had to do some talking to me to get me transitioning to a new form of my career.”
