Hailed by Billboard for making “his superstar arrival as a touring artist” in 2022, CMA Entertainer of the Year nominee Morgan Wallen continues to reign as one of Country’s top tours, as his massive One Night At A Time World Tour remains in the top of Pollstar’s LIVE75 chart. Spanning 25 stadium-plays across 5 countries and 3 continents, plus arenas, amphitheaters and festivals, Wallen’s 57-show 2023 One Night At A Time World Tour delivered the man the New York Times dubbed “one of the biggest stars in pop, period" to fans worldwide, its success
spurring a 2024 tour extension.
 
With over 25 billion on-demand streams and 10 chart-toppers at Country radio, the East Tennessean’s recent eight week No. 1 “Last Night” became Wallen’s fastest-climbing No. 1 to-date (with just 11 weeks) and the fastest-charting No. 1 since 2015, as it remained at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 16 weeks; the longest running No. 1 solo song in Hot 100 history.
Wallen’s recently released third studio album, One Thing At A Time, reigned atop the all-genre Billboard 200 chart for 12 consecutive weeks, the most weeks at the top for a Country album in over 30 years; and currently remains in the top 10. His 6x platinum, ACM Album of the Year,
Dangerous: The Double Album (Big Loud/Mercury/Republic Records) is Billboard’s longest running Top 10 album in history for a solo artist with 137 total weeks spent in the top 10, eclipsing Adele’s 21 and Bruce Springsteen’s Born In The USA.
