Alan Jackson will spend much of 2020 on the road. On Thursday (Nov. 7), the country icon unveiled plans for a lengthy tour, launching just after the first of the new year and extending well into the fall.

Jackson will begin his 2020 tour on Jan. 10 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Currently, 18 shows are scheduled -- including a show in Nashville, Tenn.; a performance in Denver, Colo.; and a stop at the 2020 Stagecoach Festival in Indio, Calif. -- through October, but a press release reports that more dates will be added.

Some of Jackson's 2020 concerts are already on sale, while others will go on sale later this month or on a to-be-announced date. For full ticketing details, including VIP package options, visit AlanJackson.com.

According to the press release announcing Jackson's 2020 tour, he'll bring a variety of special guests out on the road with him, including acts who play his Lower Broadway honky-tonk, AJ's Good Time Bar. Tenille Townes will serve as direct support, but before her sets, Jackson will feature singer-songwriter Cory Farley, the duo Carolina Pine and the duo Steel Blossoms.

Jackson, a Country Music Hall of Fame member, is celebrating 30 years in country music in 2019. The singer and songwriter is part of the genre's "Class of '89," a group of country superstars who all rose to prominence as the decade was ending.
