Huge concert news to share this morning. Kenny Chesney is bringing his 2023 I Go Back Tour to the Ford Center in Evansville!

Fans here in the tristate will likely remember Kenny Chesney's early ties to the Ford Center. It was back in 2011 that he performed the very last concert at Roberts Stadium in Evansville.  Later that year, Roberts Stadium gave way to the Ford Center, which quickly became Evansville's premiere concert destination.

Now, in May of next year, Kenny is coming back to town!

He'll bring his I Go Back Tour to the Ford Center on Saturday, May 20th and he's bringing a very special guest with him- Kelsea Ballerini!

Yes! Kelsea Ballerini, who had a monster hit with Kenny, will be his opening act at the Evansville tour stop and I have a hunch we'll see an encore performance of this . . .

By the way, in addition to the stop in Evansville, fans here in southern Indiana and western Kentucky will have an additional chance to see Kenny's tour.  He and Kelsea will be at Rupp Arena in Lexington on Tuesday, April 25th.
