TRACE ADKINS CO-STARS IN I CAN ONLY IMAGINE 2, PREMIERING NATIONWIDE FEBRUARY 20

COUNTRY LEGEND ANNOUNCES NEWLY ADDED DATES FOR
TRACE ADKINS 30TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR

NASHVILLE, TENN. (February 10, 2026) – MULTI-PLATINUM entertainer Trace Adkins is making a much-anticipated return to the big screen with the upcoming release of I Can Only Imagine 2, premiering nationwide on February 20. The star-studded sequel will hit theaters as the Country icon continues his Trace Adkins 30th Anniversary Tour — a recently launched headline run now featuring seven newly added dates. See below for the full list of tour dates and venues.Based on an inspiring true story, I Can Only Imagine 2 follows the award-winning blockbuster I Can Only Imagine — a 2018 release that emerged as the fifth-highest-grossing music biopic of all time in the U.S. In the sequel, Adkins reprises his role as Scott Brickell, manager of MercyMe (an Oklahoma-bred rock band whose smash single “I Can Only Imagine” is the most-played song in the history of Christian radio). Also starring John Michael Finley and Screen Actors Guild Award-winning actor Milo Ventimiglia (who joins the cast as MercyMe’s newest member), the new film tells the tale behind MercyMe’s hit single “Even If,” presenting the powerful next chapter in a triumphant story of family and faith. Go here to watch the trailer for I Can Only Imagine 2.Arriving on the heels of Day of Reckoning — a 2025 western action thriller co-starring Adkins and featuring his original song “That Someday” — I Can Only Imagine 2 is the latest addition to an expansive filmography for the accomplished film/TV actor. Along with appearing in critically lauded movies like The Lincoln Lawyer and Deepwater Horizon, the Louisiana legend’s acclaimed work also includes a recurring role on the era-defining hit sitcom King of the Hill.Celebrating three decades of towering success since the release of his PLATINUM-certified debut album Dreamin’ Out Loud, the Trace Adkins 30th Anniversary Tour kicked off last month at Oxford Performing Arts Center in Oxford, AL, with a number of dates already sold out. Thanks to major demand from his legion of fans, the full-throttle tour now includes additional stops in cities all over the U.S. With dates currently scheduled through September 19 at Hollywood Casino At Charles Town Races in Charles Town, WV, the Trace Adkins 30th Anniversary Tour will include two nights at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium (May 22 and 23) and stops at iconic venues like Billy Bob’s Texas in Fort Worth (March 7), The St. Augustine Amphitheatre in St. Augustine, FL (April 16), Cheyenne Frontier Days in Cheyenne, WY (July 22), and the Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson, KS (on September 11).

ABOUT TRACE ADKINS:
Over the course of his three-decade reign in Country music, MULTI-PLATINUM hitmaker Trace Adkins has emerged as a full-fledged icon whose reach spans far beyond the genre’s borders. A multi-award-winning singer and actor who’s scored 40 hit singles on Country radio and sold 12 MILLION albums to date, the Louisiana native is now nearing the 30th anniversary of his trailblazing full-length debut Dreamin’ Out Loud — a 1996 LP that delivered his No. 1 “(This Ain’t) No Thinkin’ Thing” and “Every Light In The House” (a Top 5 entry on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart). Currently out on the Trace Adkins 30th Anniversary Tour (a U.S. headline run which launched in January), the superstar entertainer recently followed his featured spot on Blake Shelton’s Friends & Heroes Tour with his own What Color’s Your Wild Tour (a hot-ticket headline trek named for his hard-driving anthem released in early 2025). For the latest entry in a celebrated filmography including acclaimed movies like Deepwater Horizon and a recurring role on the blockbuster sitcom King of the Hill, Adkins is next reprising his role as MercyMe manager Scott Brickell in I Can Only Imagine 2 (due out February 2026) after appearing as Big Buck in Day of Reckoning (a 2025 action film that featured his rousing revenge ballad “That Someday” in its closing credits). Also a devoted philanthropist with a deep-rooted passion for giving back to the military community, he’s helped raise millions of dollars to support injured post-9/11 veterans as part of his work with the Wounded Warrior Project and received a multitude of honors for his humanitarian work, including the National Defense Industrial Association’s Dwight D. Eisenhower Award. A true American legend whose powerhouse catalog includes 14 studio albums, Adkins continues to embody the fiery spirit of traditional Country while moving the genre forward with his ever-evolving sound.
