Cody Johnson is bringing the Cody Johnson & Friends show to Albany's MVP Arena on Saturday, March 13, 2027, with Carly Pearce on the bill. Doors open at 6 p.m., and the show starts at 7.

The Albany date is among the first stops Johnson has announced on a 2027 headlining run under that billing, Country Central reports. CNY News places the night at MVP Arena, 51 South Pearl Street, and says public tickets go on sale Friday, November 20, at 10 a.m. through Ticketmaster.

Fan Club First, Everyone Else Friday

The onstage friend is Pearce. The early-access friends are whoever already belongs to COJO Nation. Country Central says members of Johnson's fan club can start a presale Wednesday, November 18, at 10 a.m. local time. That is a two-day jump on the public sale.

VIP tickets are $179.50, and reserved tickets are $119.50, $99.50, $79.50, $69.50, and $59.50. The practical distinction is the clock: club members Wednesday morning, everybody else Friday morning, same Ticketmaster window after that.

Pearl Street, Saturday Night

March 13 falls on a Saturday, so the downtown arena gets a full evening rather than a weeknight commute special. Six o'clock doors, seven o'clock start, Pearl Street address. That is the whole logistics sheet on the record.

NEWS10 ABC notes that Johnson has released 10 studio albums and is known for "'Til You Can't," "The Painter," and "Dirt Cheap." Pearce is named alongside Johnson for the Albany date.

What to Do With the Next Week

From Friday, November 13, the presale is five days out and the public sale is one week out. Anyone who wants the first crack needs a COJO Nation membership before Wednesday at 10 a.m. local time. Everyone else can set an alarm for November 20 at 10 a.m. and aim at Ticketmaster.

The show itself is still four months away: Saturday, March 13, 2027, at 51 South Pearl Street, doors at 6, music at 7.
