Country star Luke Bryan is rolling his Farm Tour into Mahon Ranch in Elk Grove on May 16, turning part of the century-old property into a one-night concert venue. City officials and event partners are already mapping out traffic flow and safety plans as the show approaches.

The concert is listed on Luke Bryan’s official Farm Tour page, which shows parking gates opening at 2 p.m., doors at 5 p.m., and a 6 p.m. show start. General-admission tickets and parking passes are priced on the tour page, and the promoter’s event notice lays out venue rules plus what fans can and cannot bring inside. The Farm Tour is presented by Bayer and Fendt, and Bayer says the campaign will support Feeding America with meal donations.
Police and public-safety updates
The Elk Grove Police Department has told followers it will publish specific parking plans, road-closure maps, and safety guidance in the weeks before the show. See the department’s initial message at Elk Grove Police Department on X.
Stage placement, permits and parking
Organizers say the stage and concessions will be set up on the portion of Mahon Ranch that sits inside Elk Grove city limits to avoid a county ordinance that limits alcohol at large outdoor events, a move officials have described as a creative workaround. CBS Sacramento reports that the Mahon family was told the show could draw roughly 20,000 people and that about 70 acres will be devoted to parking. Mahon Ranch’s website notes the property has operated as a cattle ranch since 1882.
Tickets, rules and what to bring
The tour page spells out rules for attendees. Chairs and blankets are allowed in designated areas, but coolers, outside food, professional cameras, and large umbrellas are prohibited, and the event is listed as rain or shine. More ticket, parking, and VIP details are available on Luke Bryan’s Farm Tour page.
Local businesses and visitor tips
Explore Elk Grove is promoting hotel packages, a pre-party at South Slope Wines, and a weekend guide for visitors, and tourism leaders say the tour stop should give nearby restaurants and shops a healthy bump. Local coverage notes that the ranch is accessed from the Highway 99 and Grant Line Road corridor, so organizers plan to post signage and routing maps to guide drivers.
