After years of speculation, country music icons Rascal Flatts are officially reuniting in 2025 for the “Life Is a Highway” Tour. The tour will commemorate their 25-year legacy in music and give fans the reunion they’ve been eagerly awaiting.
The Big Reunion: 25 years of hits
The “Life Is a Highway” Tour, produced by Live Nation, will kick off in early 2025 with 21 stops across the U.S., including a highly anticipated performance at the Choctaw Grand Theater in Durant, Oklahoma, on February 22. This tour is particularly significant, as the band initially planned a farewell tour in 2020 to mark their 20th anniversary, but it had to be canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, Rascal Flatts — Gary LeVox, Jay DeMarcus, and Joe Don Rooney — are set to finish what they started, giving their fans a final chance to celebrate their iconic hits live.
A legacy of cross-genre hits
Formed in 1999, Rascal Flatts quickly rose to fame with their debut single “Prayin’ for Daylight” and went on to dominate both the country and pop charts with hits like “Bless The Broken Road,” “What Hurts the Most,” and the anthemic “Life Is a Highway.” Over their career, the trio amassed 17 No. 1 hits, sold more than 23.4 million albums, and earned over 12 billion streams worldwide. As Grand Ole Opry members, Rascal Flatts has also earned more than 40 awards, including accolades from the Academy of Country Music and Country Music Association.
The 2020 tour that never happened
In early 2020, Rascal Flatts announced what was supposed to be their farewell tour, set to celebrate 20 years of making music together. However, with the onset of the pandemic, the tour was canceled, leaving fans wondering if they’d ever get to see the trio perform together again. Adding to the uncertainty, lead singer Gary LeVox revealed in a 2021 interview with *People* that guitarist Joe Don Rooney had quit the band before the farewell tour announcement.
What’s next for Rascal Flatts?
Although the band has not officially confirmed whether this will be their final tour, the 2025 Life Is a Highway tour is set to serve as a reunion of sorts, bringing the trio back to the stage. Fans are hopeful that the tour could also spark new music releases or future performances, but for now, this tour offers a chance to celebrate Rascal Flatts’ extraordinary legacy and bid the band a proper farewell.
