By now you've heard that Garth Brooks is returning to Louisiana for a big show on Saturday, September 2, 2023, at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.

The concert is being put on by the Louisiana Office of Tourism and is being deemed the Sugar Bowl Country Kickoff. By the way, organizers expect this event to be an annual Labor Day weekend affair.

"Being asked to be part of the first-ever Sugar Bowl Country Kickoff is an honor," Garth Brooks said. "The fun will be in getting to perform with legends Nitty Gritty and future legend Miss Wilson in front of arguably the greatest country music fans on the planet. Any trip to Louisiana is a guaranteed good time so PLEASE count me in!!"

In the meantime, let's remember the last time Garth Brooks was in the Bayou State. On April 30, 2022, the G Man played Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge and a small earthquake broke out during one particular tune.

And Acadiana residents surely recall when Garth played the Cajundome in Lafayette for an amazing five nights over two weekends during the Summer of 2017.
