Tim McGraw Set to Headline Historic NHL Stadium Series Concert

Live music and professional sports will intersect in a new way during the next NHL Stadium Series weekend. Tim McGraw has been confirmed as the headlining performer for a special outdoor concert connected to the event.

The show will take place at Ohio Stadium, aligning with the NHL’s Stadium Series game scheduled at the venue. The performance is positioned as part of the broader weekend programming rather than a stop on McGraw’s regular tour schedule.

The NHL Stadium Series features outdoor games held in large football stadiums, designed to create a festival-style atmosphere around marquee matchups. Adding a full concert expands that format, placing live music alongside hockey as part of the fan experience.

This appearance marks the first time a country artist has headlined a concert tied directly to the Stadium Series. The event reflects a wider trend in sports entertainment, where leagues increasingly incorporate major musical acts to extend audience reach beyond traditional game attendance.

McGraw’s set is expected to take place before the game, giving fans a large-scale live performance within the context of one of the NHL’s most visible annual events.
