Austin: Randy Travis at The Long Center for the Performing Arts
October 14 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm
$102
Country and gospel legend Randy Travis brings his “More Life” Tour to The Long Center for the Performing Arts in Austin on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, at 7:30 PM. Tickets start at $102, with vocalist James Dupré performing Travis’s songs live alongside him.
Randy Travis helped lead country music’s return to its traditional roots in the 1980s, with a rich baritone voice and hits like “Forever and Ever, Amen” and “On the Other Hand” that made him one of the genre’s defining stars. After a severe stroke in 2013 left him unable to sing, Travis has continued performing in a unique format: he appears on stage while singer James Dupré performs his catalog live, allowing fans to experience his songs in a live setting alongside the artist himself.
The Long Center’s Dell Hall, with its rich acoustics built for both orchestral and vocal performance, provides a fitting setting for an evening built around one of country music’s most enduring catalogs.
Travis’s induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame and his continued presence on tour, even after his stroke, reflects the depth of his catalog’s connection with country and gospel audiences across generations. Fans looking to make a full night of downtown Austin can also check out Bass Concert Hall, another major Austin performing arts venue nearby.
The Long Center for the Performing Arts sits on the shore of Lady Bird Lake with sweeping views of the downtown Austin skyline, and its Dell Hall has become one of the city’s premier destinations for orchestral, vocal, and touring performances alike since opening. The venue’s riverside setting makes arriving early for a stroll along the lake a popular way to start the evening, and its acoustically refined main hall has hosted everything from the Austin Symphony Orchestra’s regular season to major touring artists across classical, jazz, country, and pop. The Long Center’s central location and ample parking make it one of the more convenient major venues in the city to visit.
The show begins at 7:30 PM. The Long Center’s Dell Hall offers reserved seating throughout, and the venue’s lobby bars open ahead of the performance.
