Luke Bryan’s Farm Tour hits Berning Family Farms, Prairie Grove

Country megastar Luke Bryan is heading back to the Midwest this September, and he’s not doing it the usual way. Forget arenas, stadiums, and glossy city venues, Bryan’s Farm Tour 2025 will bring music straight to the fields of working farms, with stops at Klondike Farms in Brooklyn, Wisconsin, on Thursday, Sept. 18, and Berning Family Farms in Prairie Grove, Illinois, on Friday, Sept. 19.

Launched in 2009, the Farm Tour was Bryan’s answer to the question of how to give back to the communities that raised him. Growing up in rural Georgia, Bryan understood firsthand the role farming families play in keeping the country running, and how those same families often lack access to large-scale entertainment. Instead of asking rural America to travel to him, Bryan decided to take the show on the road, straight to the farms.

The concept is as much about community as it is about music. By setting up his stage on family-owned farmland, Bryan spotlights the work of farmers while infusing small towns with a jolt of tourism dollars and national attention. Local charities and food banks benefit directly, and scholarships are awarded to students from farming families to help with college tuition. Since its inception, the Farm Tour has awarded 84 scholarships and helped provide over nine million meals through partner programs.

This fall, Klondike Farms in Brooklyn, WI, and Berning Family Farms in Prairie Grove, IL, will serve as more than just concert venues. They will become temporary gathering points for tens of thousands of fans. In 2023, roughly 20,000 people flocked to Klondike Farms when Bryan rolled into town. The upcoming 2025 return promises the same level of energy, with a stage literally set against the backdrop of harvest-ready fields.

For Prairie Grove, IL, hosting Bryan means more than just a night of country hits. It’s an economic boost for the small McHenry County community, where local restaurants, gas stations, and shops see surges in business when thousands of fans converge for the show. The choice of venues isn’t random: each farm showcases the hard work of Midwest families who continue to keep agriculture alive while providing an authentic rural concert experience.

Bryan has often said that Farm Tour was born out of a desire to bridge his Nashville stardom with his small-town roots. “I have always wanted to raise awareness for the farmer,” he explained. That mission has remained intact through every iteration of the tour.

At its core, the Farm Tour is about connection, between artist and audience, between city and countryside, and between music and the communities that inspire it. Fans may come for the music, but they leave with a reminder of the resilience and importance of America’s farming families.
