HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Marshall Athletics and GRAMMY award-winning artist Zach Bryan jointly announced on Tuesday that Bryan will headline a concert at Joan C. Edwards Stadium on Aug. 30.

Tickets go on sale Friday, March 28, at 10 a.m. ET and can be purchased online through AXS.

"This one has been a goal from the beginning as part of our annual Game Plan," said Christian Spears, Marshall's Director of Athletics. "We have worked to make Joan C. Edwards Stadium a viable option for a major recording artist. Bringing a concert of this magnitude to our region with an artist like Zach Bryan is super-special. We are so thankful for his team, the folks at AEG and our athletics staff and university community who did not flinch at the effort and work of it. I'm grateful to be at a place with people who can make these things happen! It's going to be a spectacularly great event!"

The Aug. 30 concert will start at 7 p.m. and is the first of its kind at Marshall's Joan C. Edwards Stadium, bringing one of country music's most recognizable and top performing artists to what will be an unforgettable night with Zach Bryan and special guest Petey USA in Huntington.

This announcement is one of several released recently by Bryan involving stadium tour dates for 2025. Marshall's Joan C. Edwards Stadium joins a heralded list of venues that are set to host Bryan – a list which includes Michigan Stadium, Notre Dame Stadium and MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.

Bryan's announcement also comes after he attended Marshall's Homecoming Game in 2024 – an exciting 52-37 win over App State in which he saw first-hand the passion that Marshall fans and the Tri-State community.

Fresh off the "Quittin' Time 2024 Tour" where he played 85 arenas and stadiums across North America, Bryan has wasted no time in solidifying his stance as one of the most sought-after tickets in the world.

Bryan is set to headline Stagecoach Festival 2025 in Indio, California in April and will also serve as a headliner for the BST Hyde Park Festival 2025 in London, England, for two nights in June. Bryan will also perform at Phoenix Park in Dublin, Ireland, in June and Golden Gate Park in San Francisco in August.
