Kid Rock’s Rock the Country Tour Heads to Red States Only, “Only God-Fearing Patriots Allowed” | November 14, 2024

Kid Rock has announced that his 2025 Rock the Country Tour will take a strictly red-state route, marking his most direct appeal yet to fans who share his unapologetically patriotic values. Bypassing blue states altogether, Rock’s tour will make stops in 11 cities, each selected for what he describes as “the spirit of hard work, God, and country.” For fans who see patriotism as more than a buzzword, Rock promises this tour will be the “ultimate gathering of freedom-loving Americans.”

“This isn’t just a music festival; it’s a rallying point for everyone who’s tired of being told what to think, what to believe, or how to act,” Rock stated in his announcement. “If you’re a God-fearing patriot who wants to hear some real music without the fluff, then Rock the Country is for you.”

This year, Rock has expanded the event to include Nickelback, Hank Williams Jr., and Lynyrd Skynyrd, alongside a lineup of rock and country acts known for their loyal red-state followings. The festival will feature everything from classic rock anthems to ‘90s-themed happy hours, all backed by a robust display of red, white, and blue.

Rock the Country has never been just another tour. Since its inception, Kid Rock has positioned the festival as a beacon for those who feel sidelined by mainstream culture. In his words, this year’s tour is not just about enjoying music but about “coming together with people who understand what it means to be American.”

“We’re not just celebrating music; we’re celebrating freedom, God, and what makes this country great,” he said. “If you believe in those values, then you’re welcome here. If not, well, there are plenty of other festivals for you.”
