Morgan Wallen Dominates In Europe
As Morgan Wallen returns stateside following the European leg of “One Night At A Time 2024” the current seven-time CMA Award nominee’s run concludes with 91,423 fans across seven shows, including sold-out stops in Oslo, Norway; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Glasgow, U.K., and two consecutive nights in Dublin, Ireland. Additionally, Wallen’s performance at Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome became the highest attended country show in the city’s history.
Reflecting on his first headlining European tour during his last show at Dublin, Ireland’s 3Arena on Sept. 8, Wallen said, “It’s truly been an eye-opening experience for me and my band, and a heartwarming experience as well just to see how people across the world relate to the music that we’ve been making for the past few years.”
The tour, which spanned from August 28 to September 8, included additional shows in Stockholm, Sweden, and Copenhagen, Denmark.
During his time overseas, Morgan received three plaques from UMG Sweden, UMG Ireland, and EMI UK to commemorate streaming milestones, including “One Thing At A Time” achieving Platinum certification in Norway and Ireland and Gold certification in the U.K., while “Last Night” became 6x Platinum in Ireland, and Platinum-certified in the U.K., Sweden, and Norway.
As he continues to tease new music, Wallen surprised the crowd in Stockholm with the first live performance of his highly anticipated unreleased song “Love Somebody,” and consequently added it to his setlist for the run. The song comes on the heels of the success of his six-week Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit with Post Malone, “I Had Some Help,” which recently finished at No. 1 on Billboard’s 2024 Songs of the Summer chart, becoming the singer’s second consecutive Billboard Song of the Summer. Wallen is only the second artist ever to achieve that feat, and the first in 46 years.
With just five shows remaining on his 2024 tour, Wallen will make a homecoming appearance at the University of Tennessee Knoxville’s Neyland Stadium on September 20 and 22 alongside special guests HARDY and ERNEST.

When “I Had Some Help” came out several weeks ago, Wallen and Post Malone posted the new video to their Instagram accounts. Morgan teased the new song a week ago on his Instagram, with a photo of the two, writing, “Had Some Help May 10th.”
At the time, many of Wallen’s faithful followers reacted to the post, including one fan who said, “I love these two.” Another fan commented, “Finally!!! But we need the live version released, too!!” One more fan wrote, “Best song out right now!”
The video shows Posty in a bar and doing some drinking when Morgan shows up to help his friend who was kicked out of the bar. The video then shows the two superstars singing in the back of a white pickup truck with an American flag while fireworks go off.
The end of the fun video shows Malone back in the bar and dancing on the counter.
