Tour Details

Kenny Chesney’s 2022 tour, in support of his 2020 album release, Here and Now, included 41 concerts in stadiums and amphitheaters that ran from April 23 to August 27, selling a total 1.3 million tickets with total gross sales of $135 million, according to Billboard. Originally planned as a trek for the summer of 2020, then later in 2020, then 2021, the Covid pandemic kept forcing postponements, with many No Shoes Nation fans holding onto their original 2020 tickets despite offers for refunds. Pent-up demand for the shows packed the venues when the concerts could finally take place, with Pollstar noting that, in some stadiums, the stage was pushed further into the end zone so that more fans could attend the show. As a result, the attendance tally broke records at some of the venues.
