Country icon Alan Jackson is preparing for his retirement concert, "Last Call: One More for the Road – The Finale," at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. Joining him onstage will be Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, George Strait, Carrie Underwood, Lainey Wilson, Little Big Town, Thomas Rhett, Jake Owen, Jon Pardi and Lee Ann Womack.

The show will be filmed for an NBC primetime special titled "Alan Jackson: The Last Show" and will hit Peacock for streaming the following day. Jackson announced his official retirement performance earlier this month, years after revealing he had been diagnosed with Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease in 2021.

He was originally diagnosed in 2011 but kept his diagnosis secret for a decade before coming forward. “It’s been affecting me for years,” he said on the "Today Show." “I know I’m not going to be able to tour like I have.” He added, “I know I’m stumbling around on stage.
