"We Are Tonight" is a song written by Marc Beeson, Sam Hunt and Josh Osborne and recorded by American country music artist Billy Currington. It was released in November 2013 as the second single from his fifth studio album We Are Tonight (2013).

"We Are Tonight" gave Currington his eight number-one country hit on the Billboard Country Airplay chart. It also charted at numbers 12 and 60 on both the Hot Country Songs and Hot 100 charts respectively. The song was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and has sold 455,000 copies in the United States as of August 2014. It achieved similar chart success in Canada, peaking at number 17 on the Canada Country chart and number 87 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart.

The accompanying music video for the song, directed by Kristin Barlowe, was shot in Alexandria, Tennessee at the DeKalb County Fairgrounds.

The song received a favorable review from Taste of Country, which said that Currington's "emphatic, soulful style allows the title track from his new album to become a refreshing, anthemic party song that will still sound good sober." It also stated that "sharp, descriptive lyrics add color to each verse before a powerful chorus becomes the song’s signature moment."

The music video was directed by Kristin Barlowe and premiered in September 2013. It was filmed at the DeKalb County Fairgrounds in Alexandria, Tennessee.

"We Are Tonight" debuted at number 53 on the U.S. Billboard Country Airplay chart for the week of December 7, 2013. It also debuted at number 49 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart for the week of January 18, 2014. The song has sold 455,000 copies in the U.S. as of August 2014.
