OPELIKA, Ala. — Bass Pro Shops Bulls, Bands, & Barrels announced its 19-stop national tour for 2027, featuring its first stadium event March 5 and 6 at Lourdes Stadium in Lafayette, Louisiana. Jason Aldean and Treaty Oak Revival will headline the two-day event.

Aldean will headline Friday, March 5, followed by Treaty Oak Revival on Saturday, March 6. The two-day event, billed as Battle in the Boot, brings bull riding, barrel racing and freestyle bullfighting together with live country music. Additional performers include Lauren Alaina and Fox N' Vead. Hotel packages, RV parking, tailgating and more will give fans new ways to make BBB's stadium debut a country music and western sports getaway.

BBB's signature arena show packs bull riding, barrel racing, freestyle bullfighting and live country music into a three-hour spectacle built for longtime fans and first-timers alike. The competition and concert share the spotlight, bringing four distinct attractions together for one unforgettable night out.

Fans can take their BBB experience beyond the grandstands with Pit Passes and Behind the Chutes Tours, available as add-ons in every market. Pit Passes offer front-of-stage access for the concert, while Behind the Chutes Tours take fans to the bucking chutes for an inside look at the sport and opportunities to meet the athletes, cast and crew who bring BBB to life.

Fans can register for presale access at BullsBandsAndBarrels.com. Presale for select tour dates begins Thursday, Nov. 12, with public ticket sales beginning Friday, Nov. 13. Ticketing details for the BBB Finals and the stops on May 1 and May 15 will be announced separately.

"The music matters as much as what happens in the dirt," said Hunter Price, founder and CEO of Bulls, Bands, & Barrels. "Lafayette takes that whole experience into a stadium for two days, with Jason Aldean and Treaty Oak Revival leading the lineup. We're giving fans a reason to make a weekend of it. This ain't your grandpappy's rodeo."
