Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan co-headline the Double Down Tour at Petco Park on Sunday, August 16, 2026 at 4 PM — the only West Coast date, with special guests.

Overview

Two of country music's biggest stars co-headline a stadium show for the first time — and San Diego landed the only West Coast date of the tour. Jason Aldean & Luke Bryan: The Double Down Tour rolls into Petco Park on Sunday, August 16, 2026, with two full headline sets plus support from Gavin Adcock, Chase Matthew, and DJs Dee Jay Silver and DJ Rock.

It's one of the biggest concerts of the San Diego summer — and it's perfect for country-music fans, anyone who grew up on two decades of Aldean and Bryan hits, and concertgoers who want a stadium-sized singalong under the downtown sky.

The Lineup

This is a true co-headline event between two of the genre's most decorated artists:

  • Jason Aldean — the reigning ACM Artist of the Decade, with 25+ No. 1 hits including "Dirt Road Anthem," "Big Green Tractor," and "Got What I Got," touring behind his latest album, "Songs About Us."
  • Luke Bryan — a five-time Entertainer of the Year with billions of streams and anthems like "Country Girl (Shake It for Me)," "Play It Again," and "One Margarita."

Rounding out the bill are Gavin Adcock and Chase Matthew, with Dee Jay Silver and DJ Rock spinning between sets.

The Experience

Aldean and Bryan are longtime friends and Georgia natives who've spent two decades becoming two of country's biggest live draws. After a sold-out show at UGA's Sanford Stadium, they expanded into this rare co-headline stadium run — and San Diego landed the only West Coast date. Expect a marathon of hits, two full headline sets, and an open-air Petco Park singalong under the warm August sky.

On the night:

  • Two headline sets from a pair of country superstars
  • A stacked undercard of openers and DJs
  • Petco Park's open-air setting in the heart of downtown
  • A massive, all-in country crowd for a one-of-a-kind co-headline

About the Double Down Tour

The Double Down Tour is a rare co-headlining stadium run between two artists who've each headlined arenas and stadiums on their own for years. Following their sold-out reunion in Georgia, Aldean and Bryan added a handful of stadium dates — with San Diego's Petco Park show standing as the only stop on the West Coast. For California country fans, this is the one to circle.

Who It's For

  • Country-music fans — two of the genre's biggest stars on one stage
  • Aldean and Bryan loyalists — decades of hits in one night
  • Californians — the only West Coast stop on the tour
  • Groups and friends — a huge, festive summer night
  • Stadium-show lovers — a marquee Petco Park concert

How to Make a Night of It

  • Take the Trolley — all three lines stop at Petco; it beats sold-out-show parking and downtown traffic every time
  • Arrive early — a 4 PM start with multiple openers means a long, full day
  • Eat in the Gaslamp — dinner before or after is a short walk away
  • Pack light — Petco enforces a strict clear-bag policy
  • Bring a layer — it's outdoors, and downtown cools off once the sun drops
  • Consider VIP — premium packages include a pre-show tailgate lounge and more

Tickets

Ticket prices vary by seat and demand, and as the only West Coast date on the tour, they run high and move fast. VIP packages (premium tickets, pre-show VIP Tailgate Lounge, and more) are available via vipnation.com.
