They’re kicking off 2026 early at The Fruit Yard Amphitheater, with the announcement of its first show for the upcoming season.

Country music artist Warren Zeiders will play April 22 at the Modesto venue, according to a Facebook post. Tickets go on sale to the public on Friday, Nov. 14, at 10 a.m.

The concert is part of Zeiders’ first world tour, with 30 shows in the U.S., Australia, the UK and continental Europe, according to countrycentral.com.

Currently, he’s finishing up a U.S. tour.

He’ll be joined at his Modesto show by country rock duo Lakeview.

Zeiders, 26, has more than 3.5 billion global streams, 2 billion TikTok views and nearly 8 million monthly listeners on Spotify, his website says.

He won a 2024 CMT Award for breakthrough male music video, according to his website, and his first No. 1 single was “Pretty Little Poison.” He released the album “Relapse, Lies, & Betrayal” this year.

The announcement comes not long after the venue’s final show of 2025, which featured country singer Justin Moore in October.

The Fruit Yard’s just-finished season also brought in music hitmakers including “Weird” Al Yankovic, Darius Rucker, Three Dog Night, Little River Band, Alabama and several others.
