Kenny Chesney Announces 2018 “Trip Around the Sun Tour”

by Jim Casey | @TheJimCasey | October 18, 2017

Kenny Chesney may be coming to a stadium near you in 2018.

Kenny’s 2018 Trip Around the Sun Tour will kick off in April and visit 18 major stadiums through August, including stops in Atlanta, Denver, Chicago, Seattle, Nashville and more. Thomas Rhett, Old Dominion and Brandon Lay will hit the road with Kenny during the tour.

“There’s nothing like a stadium full of people coming together to remind you what life’s about,” Kennys says. “The energy, the moments, the fun. Every single one of these artists who’re coming out with us for Trip Around the Sun live their lives the exact same way: they work hard, they appreciate what they’re given and they love music every bit as much as they love life. I, personally, can’t wait to see this show hit the road.”

Tickets go on sale Oct. 27. Pre-sale begins Oct. 19.

So excited to announce our 2018 #TripAroundTheSun Tour. @noshoesnation @thomasrhett @olddominion @brandonlay. Dates: https://t.co/ZjeJKCw0VG pic.twitter.com/TfK3VwG1xh
