Alright, Green Bay—get ready to swap cheese curds for cowboy boots, because Brad Paisley is about to drop a twang-laced hammer on the final night of the 2025 NFL Draft. That’s right, country music’s six-string slinger will headline the NFL Draft Concert Series presented by Bud Light on April 26, right outside the legendary Lambeau Field. Free show. No excuses.
And while NFL hopefuls are praying they don’t get drafted by a team that still runs the Wildcat offense, fans will be treated to a musical closer that’s more American than beer and tailgates combined. According to Paisley, “There’s nothing like football to bring people together, and the NFL Draft is where it all begins.” Spoken like a true fan—and a man who knows his way around both a Stratocaster and a Sunday afternoon couch nap.
The Draft Breakdown
In case you’ve been too busy arguing about your fantasy league’s punishment rules, the 2025 NFL Draft kicks off April 24-26 and will be broadcast across every ESPN acronym and NFL outlet imaginable. And for those of you looking for a little spectacle, there’s a 500-drone light show set to light up the sky over Lambeau on April 25, paying tribute to both NFL legends and the history of the Draft. Don’t worry, the Packers’ playoff record won’t be included.
And let’s not ignore the elephant in the room: the NIL Draft predictions are on fire. With names like Jaxson Beck, Treyvin Hawkins, and explosive Florida wideout Malachi Grant circling the top 10, this year’s draft has enough hype to make even your grandma start mock drafting.
Rock, Country, and a Touchdown of Talent
Past draft weekend performers include Kings of Leon, Ice Cube, and Marshmello—but let’s be honest, few artists straddle the line between stadium swagger and down-home cool quite like Brad Paisley. And with his “Truck Still Works World Tour” firing up on May 21, this gig at the NFL Draft is the pre-party Green Bay never knew it needed.
