Kenny Announces Tour Dates

Kenny Chesney has released the dates for his upcoming Sun City Carnival tour, which kicks off April 17 in Uncasville, Conn.

Kenny will be on the road through the middle of September, playing in massive, multi-capacity football stadiums as well as smaller arenas. "We're gonna try and mix it up again this year," Kenny says. "We've got a bunch of football stadiums, because that is an experience like no other, but we're also going to do some amphitheaters and arenas . . . and knowing us, we'll probably pop up in a bar or a honky tonk or two along the way. What's important is getting out there and bringing the music to life." Kenny has named Miranda Lambert and Lady Antebellum as the opening acts for the tour.
