Country Music Icon Returning to Death Valley
The King of Country Music is returning to Death Valley.
Country music legend George Strait is set to perform in Clemson on May 2, kicking off the new concert series “Death Valley Nights.” Strait has confirmed he will headline the “One Night Only” event with Cody Johnson and Wyatt Flores as special guests.
This will mark the first concert in Death Valley since 1999, which was also headlined by Strait.
In his Instagram announcement, Strait wrote, “The last time Death Valley hosted a concert was 1999 — and it was George Strait. In 2026, the King returns.”
