Florida Georgia Line have canceled their entire fall tour. The 2021 I Love My Country Tour was set to begin in Atlanta on Sept. 24 and feature opening acts Russell Dickerson, Lauren Alaina and more, but COVID-19 has changed that.

A press release cites the rise in COVID-19 cases as the reason for the cancelation. While several country artists have canceled select shows, this marks one of the first full-scale tour cancelations of the fall touring season. Garth Brooks shut down his tour for 2021, but that included just five stadium tour stops through October.

The response from artists as the Delta variant sweeps the country has been varied — several have taken the initiative to insist upon full vaccination, or proof of a negative test, to attend shows, while others have sounded off against these measures. Leading promoter Live Nation set a new policy, effective Oct. 4, which requires full vaccination or proof of a negative test to enter shows they present. AEG Presents is requiring full vaccination status.

Nationwide, the CDC reported on Monday (Aug. 16) that the current seven-day moving average of new daily COVID-19 cases increased by 19.9 percent from the previous seven-day moving average. Current rates are similar to the rates seen in late January and early February — up more than five times from the 12-month low in late June 2021.

Both Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley of Florida Georgia Line have previously tested positive for COVID-19, both in 2020.
