Lainey Wilson's Whirlwind Tour And Charity Concerts Announced

Country music star Lainey Wilson and NASCAR driver Joey Logano reveal major events for 2025, promoting music and philanthropy.

Lainey Wilson, the rising country music star known for her vibrant performances, has officially unveiled her much-anticipated 2025 'Whirlwind Tour'. Spanning across North America, this tour promises to be nothing short of spectacular as Wilson is set to perform at arenas, amphitheaters, and pavilions throughout the U.S. and Canada. Accompanying her on select dates will be fellow artists such as Muscadine Bloodline, Ernest, Zach Meadows, Lauren Watkins, and Drake Milligan, making it one of the most exciting line-ups to hit the stage.

Among the highlights of the tour is Wilson's stop at New York City's iconic Madison Square Garden on Friday, October 10. Before embarking on her tour, Wilson will grace the stage at Wildwood, NJ's annual Barefoot Country Music Festival. She will be joined by other prominent artists, including Jelly Roll, Megan Moroney, Jason Aldean, Rascal Flatts, and Jordan Davis, ensuring fans have plenty of opportunities to see her perform live through summer and fall.

The 2025 tour serves as support for Wilson’s recently released album, aptly titled "Whirlwind", which critics have praised for its irresistible charm and the ability to avoid country music clichés. According to Brits in Boots, the album “ticks all the big country music boxes.”

"You don’t want to miss this," Wilson exclaimed playfully in her promotional video on Instagram, where she adopts the persona of a weather forecaster predicting the upcoming ‘whirlwind’. Both her creative promotion and the new album set the stage for what is expected to be a phenomenal tour.

For fans eager to see her perform, tickets for all Lainey Wilson shows and festivals go on sale officially on February 7 through alternative ticketing platforms like Vivid Seats, which provides guaranteed safe transactions. Each performance promises to deliver high-energy and unforgettable country music experiences.

Meanwhile, NASCAR driver Joey Logano is also making headlines with his announcement for the 3rd Annual Concert for Charity at Charlotte's Coyote Joe's. Scheduled for May 20, 2025, the event will feature singer Jordan Davis, as well as several other artists. The concert, which benefits the Joey Logano Foundation, focuses on helping children and young adults impacted by tragic circumstances.

Logano took to his social media platforms to express his enthusiasm, stating, "Pumped to announce Jordan Davis will be performing at our 3rd Annual Concert for Charity at @coyotejoes on Tuesday, May 20th. Proceeds benefit the @JoeyLoganoFDN, and TICKETS GO ON SALE - FEB 7th at Coyote-Joes.com". The event marks another chapter in Logano’s commitment to philanthropic efforts through his foundation, which he established back in 2013 after experiencing his own second chance as he rose through the ranks of NASCAR.

His foundation has been particularly active this year, focusing efforts to assist the victims of Hurricane Helene among other initiatives. With three Cup Series titles under his belt after 12 years with Team Penske, Logano also finds time to engage with the community through charity efforts like the upcoming concert.

The JL Kids Crew program is another initiative by the foundation, which gives children facing challenges the chance to spend time with the NASCAR team for a day. Logano has raised awareness for this program, inviting nominations from followers to help deserving children become part of the experience.

Fans of both Lainey Wilson and Joey Logano have much to look forward to as these stars prepare for their respective events. With the concert scene teeming with talent and philanthropic efforts, the engagement from both the music and sports communities promises to create memorable moments for participants and audiences alike. Tickets for all events will be going live soon, so enthusiasts should mark their calendars!
