George Strait Drops A Hint About A Big Announcement Coming Soon
George Strait is teasing a big announcement, and fans are going wild trying to figure out what it could be.
On Tuesday (October 14), Strait’s team shared a post on his social media pages with a caption that read, “Gearing up for a 2026 announcement. Here’s a clue! Let us know your guess in the comments.”
The post included an image of an autographed poster from 1998’s George Strait Chevy Truck Country Music Festival. The lineup included Tim McGraw, The Chicks, Kenny Chesney, Jo Dee Messina, Mark Wills, Asleep at the Wheel, and of course, “The King of Country” himself.
The “festival” was not a one-day event. Instead, multiple shows were held across the country with the full lineup of performers. Willie Nelson‘s Outlaw Music Festival Tour operates similarly.

Based on that post, our first assumption is that Strait is planning to headline his own festival tour again. Or at least, he has plans to headline a one-day festival with a ’90s country theme? Perhaps somewhere in his home state of Texas?
There’s a chance he could be planning a singular reunion show with some of the artists featured on the 1998 tour. Or maybe they’re working on a collaboration in the studio?
Needless to say, Strait’s mysterious post left fans asking tons of questions!
