Kip Moore just announced he will serve a live stint as part of a six-date "Bud Light Dive Bar Tour."

Set to take place across the U.S., the series is known for bringing sell-out artists to intimate dive bar stages. The exclusive run will kick off in Detroit on 8/15 and fans can only win tickets beginning today (7/22), through contests, social media promotion and giveaways.

Kip explained, “Connecting with people through our live show brings me pure joy. I’m really looking forward to the Bud Light Dive Bar dates as it will take us back to where we started and where our journey began. It also gives us the opportunity to get a little wild with the show. Then we’ll be able to strip it back down this fall with the next leg of acoustic dates. The rapport we’ve felt with the crowds through the acoustic shows has been really special and I’m so glad the fans are enjoying it and we get to bring it to even more cities.”

BUD LIGHT DIVE BAR TOUR Dates:

8/15 Detroit, MI (Royal Oak, MI)
8/16 Cleveland, OH
8/17 Cincinnati, OH
8/20 Indianapolis, IN
8/22 Chicago, IL
8/23 Madison, WI
