(WXYZ) — Country superstar Kenny Chesney announce he is postponing the 2020 Chillaxification Tour which included a stop in Detroit this summer.
“With so many tours needing to move and wanting to make sure we are in the best possible circumstances for No Shoes Nation, I think – and I hate saying this – it’s best to move everything into 2021,” Chesney said. “In the best interest of everyone – No Shoes Nation, my road family, the staff at the venues – we have decided to quit moving the dates around on the calendar, trying to make a chunk of this year work and go to where we believe we can roll out the entire Chillaxification Tour.”
He was scheduled to play Ford Field on Saturday, Aug. 15.
