Keith Urban thrilled fans on Monday morning with the announcement of his 2025 HIGH AND ALIVE WORLD TOUR, marking his return to the touring circuit after a three-year hiatus.
The highly anticipated tour kicks off on May 22 in Orange Beach, Alabama and is set to feature Chase Matthew, Alana Springsteen, and Karley Scott Collins.
“Playing live is what I live to do,” Urban shared in a statement. “Looking out from a stage and seeing people singing, forgetting about all the stress in their lives, cutting loose, and feeling ALIVE – that’s what it’s about for me. Lots of hits, new songs, things we won’t even think about until we’re onstage – and loads of guitar. We’re gonna make this tour the best night of your life!”
Tickets for the trek are set to go on sale beginning Friday, December 13 at 10 am local time. Additional North American tour dates are expected to be announced in the coming months.

Keith Urban’s HIGH AND ALIVE WORLD TOUR is in support of his just-released 11th studio album, HIGH. The project marked the superstar’s first new album in four years and was released in September.
In an interview with Country Now and other outlets, Urban revealed that this album is unlike anything he’s done before. He initially started working on a completely different project, titled 615, but when things didn’t come together as planned, he chose to abandon it and begin again from the ground up.
“In all the albums I’ve ever made, I’ve never scrapped an entire album and started again. So it felt like a gut punch of my own making. It would have been easier to just be like, this album’s fine. There’re some great songs on it. Let’s go, let’s tour, let’s keep the thing going, but every part of me just felt like there’s a better record in me,” Urban explained at the time.
While he may have started over, Urban did keep four tracks from the original project: “Messed Up as Me,” “Daytona,” “Heart Like a Hometown”, and “Break the Chain.”
In the end, Urban wound up with HIGH, a collection of songs that he’s incredibly proud of.
“I genuinely have gratitude for what I get to do. That’s not BS. It’s real. And if that came through on this record, then that’s what you’re feeling,” he said.
