TULSA, Okla. (April 14, 2026) —
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa is celebrating the 4th of July holiday with country music star Aaron Tippin at Hard Rock Live inside Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tulsa on Thursday, July 2, at 8 p.m.

With his signature Southern charm and decades-long career, Aaron Tippin is one of country music’s most enduring voices. Known for his authenticity and blue-collar roots, Tippin’s hits include fan-favorites such as “You’ve Got to Stand for Something,” “Kiss This,” “Workin’ Man’s Ph.D.,” “There Ain’t Nothing Wrong With the Radio” and “Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle Fly.” Throughout his career, he has released more than 30 singles, with his studio albums charting to gold and platinum success.

Born in Pensacola, Florida, and raised on a farm in South Carolina, Tippin originally pursued an aviation career, becoming a commercial pilot before shifting his focus to music. After moving to Nashville, he found early success as a songwriter, eventually landing a recording deal with RCA Records. His debut single quickly climbed into the Top 10, launching a career defined by hard work, resilience and a deep connection with his audience.

Tippin has performed across the country, including for troops in the Middle East. His music has been used to wake up the space shuttle and was also chosen by an astronaut as the album they took into space. Tippin continues to perform and maintain a busy touring schedule across the country.

Tickets start at $17.76 and go on sale April 17.
