Kenny Chesney’s First Headline Show 20 Years Ago this Week

by jwills | February 1, 2022

While most people plan their summer vacations around Kenny Chesney‘s tour schedule these days, it’s hard to remember a time when Kenny wasn’t one of the hottest concert tickets in country music.

Kenny remembers though…

Monday night he posted a picture to mark the 20th anniversary of his first headline show in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Kenny shared, “Twenty years ago tonight was my first headline show ever at the Coral Sky Amphitheater in West Palm Beach, FL ….. It was the beginning of this beautiful journey. Thanks to everyone in this picture and all of @NoShoesNation for living the dream with me. Who lives like we do? We Do.”

Now in 2022 fans are counting down the days until April 23rd – that’s when Kenny kicks off his Here And Now 2022 tour in Tampa, FL.

Kenny will be out on the road with Dan + Shay, Old Dominion, and Carly Pearce…
