Conner Smith Announces First Headlining Run, the If I Went to College Tour
Conner Smith is embarking on his first-ever headlining tour in 2023. The rising country artist will launch the If I Went to College Tour, which will stop at various college towns across the country, next month.
"Been waiting to tell y’all about this for a while!! Spring 2023 College tour with @monsterenergy Outbreak Tour coming to get rowdy with y’all," he shares on social media.
The trek begins Feb. 9 and wrap things up with a homecoming show in Nashville on April 28.
