Rascal Flatts’ “Life Is A Highway Tour” Set to Make Mohegan Sun Arena Stop

Lauren Alaina and Chris Lane Set To Join The Superstar Vocal Group On The Nationwide Tour In 2025

UNCASVILLE, CT (October 3, 2024) – Emerging from hiatus with renewed passion, Country music icons and multi-platinum selling act Rascal Flatts will embark on their Life Is A Highway Tour in 2025, celebrating 25 years of hits and the impact of one of the most influential groups in Country music. Taking care of unfinished business, the trio have plotted a 21-stop tour across the US, including a stop at Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday, March 14th. The show produced by Live Nation kicks off at 7:00pm.

Tickets to see Rascal Flatts go on sale Friday, October 4th via Ticketmaster.com. Tickets are also available at the Mohegan Sun Box Office starting Saturday, October 5th, subject to availability.

The group reflected: “In 2020, we announced the farewell tour after being on the road extensively for 20 years.  To put it simply, we needed a break. Then COVID hit and our plans came to a screeching halt, like the rest of the world.  Since then, we’ve been able to revisit our unique and special experience as a band and we’re ready to get out on the road again.  It’s hard to believe that next year will be the 25th anniversary of Rascal Flatts, and that felt like the perfect time to get back in front of the fans who have given us so much.”

Furthering anticipation for the upcoming tour, Rascal Flatts also shared that they will be inviting Lauren Alaina and Chris Lane to join them across the run. Together, the trio and their fans will reflect on their iconic catalog of hits including “Bless The Broken Road,” “My Wish,” and “What Hurts The Most” – always soulful, engaging and delivered with a positive, universal message – as well as a string of success that continues to place Rascal Flatts among the modern musical elite. 

The tour will also offer a variety of different VIP packages and experiences for fans to take their concert experience to the next level. Packages vary but include premium tickets, invitation to the Rascal Flatts VIP Lounge, autographed, limited-edition tour poster, VIP exclusive gift item & more.
