“The Night Champion World Tour” with special guests Shane Smith & The Saints, Bayker Blankenship & Logan Jahnke

Pollstar’s “firebrand live sensation” Koe Wetzel returns to the road with aptly named The Night Champion World Tour, a 45-city headlining run this summer and fall. Shane Smith & The Saints, Bayker Blankenship, Kolby Cooper and Logan Jahnke join as support when the tour visits Meadow Brook Amphitheatre on Friday, August 28 at 6:45 p.m. Oakland University Credit Union is the exclusive presenting partner of Meadow Brook Amphitheatre.

Known for concerts the East Texas native describes fondly as “total chaos,” Wetzel’s live show has grown from Texas dive bars to sold-out amphitheaters and arenas nationwide, drawing more than 250,000 fans on his 2024 Damn Near Normal Tour alone.

“It’s kind of crazy that I’m not dead or in jail with everything that’s gone on in my life,” Wetzel reflects candidly. “Coming into 2026 and this tour, I feel like I’m the best version of myself I’ve ever been. I survived the night side of me. I’m coming out of it a champion.”

The upcoming tour promises to deliver new tracks like “Surrounded” and “Time Goes On” plus 2025’s most-played song at Country radio, the 3x Platinum, five-week No. 1 hit “High Road” and fan favorites including “February 28, 2016” – with the corresponding Koe Wetzel Day unofficial holiday in the midst of its 10th anniversary celebration this week.

Ahead of the celebration a decade in the making culminating at Koe Wetzel’s Riot Room in Fort Worth this Saturday, Feb. 28, fans are encouraged to join Wetzel’s Community by texting 601-563-9895 for an exclusive announcement to come.
