Riley Green bringing ‘That’s Just Me Tour’ to Walmart AMP in May 2027

Country singer Riley Green will perform at the Walmart AMP in Rogers on May 8, 2027, as part of his “That’s Just Me Tour.” The show will feature supporting acts Randy Houser, Jake Worthington, and Hannah McFarland. Gates open at 5:30 p.m., with the concert starting at 7 p.m.

Tickets go on sale to the public at 10 a.m. on Friday, October 2, with presales kicking off at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, September 29. Prices range from $59.93 to $227.11, plus taxes.

Green is donating $1 from every ticket sold to local schools as part of a partnership program with communities on the tour route. Springdale’s Har-Ber High School and the Tyson School of Innovation took part in the tour’s announcement, showcasing a pep rally along with choir and band performances.

The “That’s Just Me Tour” brings together several familiar names in country music. Randy Houser is known for energetic performances and hits like “Runnin’ Outta Moonlight.” Jake Worthington gained attention for his appearance on a national talent competition and is building a solid fan base. Hannah McFarland is making a name as an emerging artist with a soulful voice complementing the lineup.

Riley Green, who has steadily grown in prominence with his blend of traditional and modern country sounds, is using this tour not just to hit the stage but to engage with communities along the way. His collaboration with schools highlights a commitment to supporting music education and local youth programs, a gesture that resonates in Northwest Arkansas where school spirit and arts programs are vital parts of community life.

The Walmart AMP, located just off Walnut Street near downtown Rogers, frequently hosts major concerts that draw crowds from across the region. Its outdoor setting allows for sizeable audiences, making it a preferred venue for summer and spring concerts alike.

This tour announcement follows a recent trend of national acts choosing the Walmart AMP as a primary stop in their regional trips, joining other big names such as Mumford & Sons, who were added to the AMP’s 2026 lineup.

Rogers and the surrounding Northwest Arkansas area continue to benefit from these events, which bring a burst of activity to local businesses and nightlife. The proximity to major highways and the city’s long-standing reputation as a cultural crossroads make it an ideal spot for tours targeting both urban and rural fans.

For residents of Springdale, Green’s involvement with local high schools adds a layer of excitement to the concert experience. Har-Ber High School’s pep rally and band performances included in the announcement video demonstrate the enthusiasm wrapped into this collaboration. The Tyson School of Innovation’s participation brings a tech-forward contrast to the musicians’ traditional country sound, reflecting the area’s unique blend of innovation and heritage.

As the ticket sale date approaches, interest is expected to build among country music fans throughout Benton County and beyond. The combination of multiple acts and a community-centered approach to the tour distinguishes this event from typical concerts at the Walmart AMP.

Green’s tour schedule includes stops in other regional hubs, each with its own take on the school partnerships. This initiative underscores a broader trend of musicians seeking to create meaningful ties with communities rather than simply passing through.

With the May 8 date now set, Rogers will join Fayetteville and Springdale as a key stop on the touring circuit that supports the vibrant music scene across Northwest Arkansas. Whether you’re a longtime Riley Green fan or curious about the emerging artists sharing the stage, this concert promises a mix of Southern storytelling and small-town energy that resonates well in these parts.
