Ella Langley Extends The Dandelion Tour to 21 Dates, Adds Athens Stop
The extension comes after a record‑setting year for Langley. She swept the 2026 ACM Awards, taking home all seven categories in which she was nominated, and added two American Music Awards to her résumé. Her second studio album, Dandelion, dropped on April 10, 2026, and opened at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The album’s lead single, “Choosin’ Texas,” is a 4× Platinum track that made Langley the first female artist to simultaneously top the Billboard Hot 100, Hot Country Songs, and Country Airplay charts.
Dandelion also houses the Platinum‑certified hit “Be Her,” which became the fastest solo female country song to reach No. 1 on country radio in the past decade. The record was executive‑produced by Langley, Miranda Lambert, and Ben West, and has been described as a blend of bold songwriting and arena‑ready performances. The tour’s setlist is expected to feature most of the tracks that propelled Langley to mainstream success, along with additional material from the album.
Ticket sales for the expanded tour opened on Friday, June 26, at 10 a.m. local time. According to the press release, the Athens show is part of a broader strategy to meet the high demand that has seen many dates sell out shortly after tickets became available. The Athens venue, Atkins Ford Arena, will host Langley with special guests Kameron Marlowe and Laci Kaye Booth, as noted on the city’s event page.
Adding the Athens stop gives local fans another chance to experience Langley’s live performance, which has been praised for its energy and authenticity. The tour’s expansion to 21 dates underscores the sustained popularity of the artist’s music and the strong commercial performance of her second album.
In summary, Ella Langley’s extended Dandelion Tour will run from August 20 to October 31, 2026, featuring 21 arena dates across the United States, including a September 18 show at Athens’ Atkins Ford Arena. The extension follows a milestone year marked by award wins, chart‑topping singles, and a number‑one album. Ticket sales remain open, and additional information can be found on Langley’s official website.
