Country superstar Kenny Chesney is holding off one more year until he brings his No Shoes Nation back to Pittsburgh
Chesney's Chillaxification concert was scheduled for Heinz Field on Saturday, June 12, 2021 with the special guest lineup of Florida Georgia Line, Old Dominion and Michael Franti & Spearhead.
It was announced on Monday that Chesney will not be touring in 2021. With current state and national guidelines on how many people can attend an outdoor still up in the air for the summer, Chesney says he wants to guarantee that a large section of fans won’t miss out.
“We have waited for so long, I can’t play knowing I would disappoint a portion of No Shoes Nation who wouldn’t be able to get into the stadiums and the amphitheaters,” Chesney says. “There’s no way around that this year. As much I hate postponing further, I would hate telling people who waited we won’t be able to let them come due to capacity restrictions. That’s just not fair.”
The Chillaxification Tour was postponed last year as well and will return next year with a brand new tour name.
“I feel better about us all being together safely,” Chesney said about moving the show to 2022.
All tickets previously purchased for the 2020/2021 show will be honored for next. Anyone who cannot make the show next year can request a refund.
Dates for the new show will be announced “shortly”
