The Ripcord World Tour (stylized as the ripCORD World Tour) was the tenth headlining concert tour by New Zealand-born Australian country music singer Keith Urban, in support of his ninth studio album Ripcord (2016). The tour began on 2 June 2016 in Bonner Springs, Kansas and concluded on 17 December 2016 with two shows in Brisbane, Australia. Brett Eldredge, Maren Morris, and Dallas Smith all served as supporting acts for Urban in North America. The Oceania leg of the tour was co-headlined with American singer Carrie Underwood, with Buchanan as opening act.[1] [2]

Background

The tour was first announced in January 2016. About the tour, Urban said that new music from RipCORD would be played, there would be new production, and that he would be playing in cities he'd never been to before.[3] Australian dates were announced in April 2016.[4]
