Carrie Underwood's 2016 arena tour will bring her new music to fans in a brand new way. The Storyteller Tour — Stories in the Round will be the singer's first tour "in the round," meaning the stage will sit in the center of the arena and fans will surround her.

It's a concept George Strait made popular throughout his career, and Underwood is hoping it plays well for the 13 songs on her most recent Storyteller album, and her deep catalog of hits. The Storyteller Tour begins on Jan. 30 in Jacksonville, Fla., and runs through May 30 in London, Ont., As she's done in the past, Underwood is touring during husband Mike Fisher's NHL hockey season. In previous years she's taken summers off so they can spend time together.

Easton Corbin and the Swon Brothers will open the tour and $1 from each ticket sold will be contributed to C.A.T.S. Foundation benefit schools and animal charities in her hometown of Checotah, Okla.

“I am so blessed to have this career and get to do to the things I do, but there is nothing like that moment when I get to step onto the stage to sing and all the fans are singing along with me," Underwood says in a press release.

Tickets for the Storyteller Tour will go on sale Nov. 6 at 10AM local time through AEG Live. See a full list of dates below.
