While we have been waiting to hear if Kenny Chesney will be playing at Atlantic City’s Bader Field in late September, comes word that he will be hitting a southern New Jersey beach June 20.
It has been announced that the country music, beach-loving superstar will perform a free concert on the beach in Wildwood, NJ on June 20, starting at 8:30pm.
According to NBC.com, Chesney originally wanted to hold the concert on a boardwalk in Seaside Heights, (where Jersey Shore is filmed), but Chesney saw the Wildwood beach and loved it. The concert takes place on the beach at Schellenger Avenue, south of Mariner’s Landing Pier.
Even though the concert is free, fans must have a ticket to attend. Sponsored by American Express, the first 15,000 tickets will be distributed to the company’s customers.
American Express cardholders and Kenny Chesney Fan Club members can get tickets at Ticketmaster until 10pm Sunday. Tickets will be available to the general public at 11am Monday, also through Ticketmaster. Two local radio stations, Cat Country 107.3 and 92.5 XTU are giving fans a chance to win tickets.
