The country star announced Thursday that he'll play a dozen shows at Sphere starting May 22.
Kenny Chesney is Sphere-bound. The country star announced Thursday that he’ll launch a 12-date residency at the state-of-the-art dome-shaped venue in Las Vegas in May, nine months after he wrapped a U.S. tour that hit Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium in July. The first Nashville act to play Sphere, which features a 160,000-square-foot video screen said to be the highest-resolution in the world, Chesney, 56, will start his residency May 22 with dates scheduled through mid-June.
Built at a cost of more than $2 billion, Sphere opened in September 2023 with a 40-date run by U2 — an eye-popping spectacle that the Irish band then turned into a concert movie screened only at Sphere. The jam bands Phish and Dead & Company and electronic musician Anyma have also performed at the venue; the Eagles are in the middle of a residency there, and Dead & Company are slated to return starting March 20.
