Garth Brooks has added Orlando to his Blame It All On My Roots tour, booking two shows at Kia Center on September 25 and 26. The stop is the fifth city announced for the run so far.

Brooks opened the tour this past weekend with four sold-out shows in Indianapolis, and he has been announcing stops one market at a time rather than releasing a full itinerary up front. Denver and Chicago come next, followed by two nights at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., before the tour reaches Florida.

The Orlando shows carry extra weight beyond the box office. Brooks is recording a live album during the tour, and the September dates will be part of that recording. The stop also extends his long history in Central Florida, which goes back to a 1989 show at the honky-tonk The Barn in nearby Sanford and includes a 2016 run of four shows in two days at the same arena, plus a 1998 concert where he broke his own Orlando attendance record.

The production traveling with the country star includes the return of his Drum Pod and a 360-degree stage ringed by towering LED screens the crew calls "The Halo." It marks Brooks' return to arenas after the stadium tour that wrapped in 2022 and the Las Vegas residency that followed.

Tickets for both Orlando shows go on general sale September 2 at 10 a.m. ET.
