“Bayer Presents Luke Bryan Farm Tour 2018”

Nashville – May 25, 2018 – As a nod to his own family upbringing, country music superstar Luke Bryan will once again honor the American farmer this fall as his tenth annual FARM TOUR is set for September 27 to October 6. Luke will take the six-city tour from Ohio to Florida setting up stages in the fields of local farmers across those states. Over 100,000 fans have attended the tour each year since its inception in 2009. Luke will continue giving back to the farmers by awarding college scholarships to students from farming families who are attending the local college or university near the tour stops. To date, more than 50 scholarships have been granted.
