Kelsea Ballerini is coming home ‒ for a special one night only concert in Knoxville, Tennessee at Thompson-Boling Arena.
It's Ballerini's first headlining arena show, organizers say. In promotional images for “The Homecoming Show,”she's got a Vols jacket casually slung over one shoulder.
The country star and Knoxville native, 30, will perform at 7 p.m. Nov. 2. Tickets for Kelsea’s fan club go on sale at 10 a.m. Sept. 13. Tickets for the general public go on sale through Ticketmaster at 10 a.m. Sept. 15.
Ballerini shared a promotional video on Instagram Tuesday to the tune of her song "Half of My Hometown," featuring fellow Knoxville native Kenny Chesney. In the video, she and her dog Dibs hopped in a truck as they were both decked out in Tennessee memorabilia and explored Knoxville's hotspots before ending at Thompson-Boling Arena.
"Throughout the last decade and four albums, there has been a consistent ode to my hometown. whether it be lyrically like in ‘half of my hometown’ or celebrating milestone moments in venues like my high school, the tennessee theater, or the civic center, it’s always been incredibly important to me to go back to the place that let me go to chase my dream," the country artist captioned the video.
She added: "Playing thompson-boling has been on my bucket list since i was a little kid watching my favorite musicians come through town and is the perfect place to celebrate such a bookmark year and kick off a new level of touring. see you november 2, Knoxville,"
Ingrid Andress and Georgia Webster will open “The Homecoming Show.”
Kelsea Ballerini Announces 'The Homecoming Show' in Knoxville, Tennessee. Kelsea Ballerini has announced a special one-off performance in Knoxville, Tennessee, with the 'Blindsided' songsmith set to take the stage at the Thompson-Boling Arena on November 2 2023.
Immediately after the show ended, they did a shot together which led to their first kiss. Later that same year, on Christmas Day, Kelsea and Morgan got engaged. They married one year later in December 2017 in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. After four and a half year of marriage, Ballerini filed for divorce on August 26, 2022.
Kelsea Ballerini is taking not-so-subtle aim at her ex-husband Morgan Evans. "He's putting out a song about being blindsided.He's taking half the house that he didn't pay for," she told Alex Cooper on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast of the "nasty" dissolution of their marriage.
"Who you marry is not who you divorce," the "Blindsided" singer said, going on to claim, "As he's putting out a song about being blindsided, he's taking half the house that he didn't pay for." "So you didn't get a prenup?" host Alex Cooper asked. "I did get a prenup," Ballerini said, pausing.
Country music artists Kelsea Ballerini and Morgan Evans were married for nearly five years before announcing their split in 2022. They first met as co-hosts of Australia's Country Music Channel Awards in 2016 and got married a year and a half later.
Ballerini — who was just 23 when she got engaged — told Cooper that she "didn't want to have a wedding," and had soured on the idea of marriage thanks in part to her own parents' divorce. "I swore I would never get married," she said. "I think he loved me more at 23 and I love me more at 29."
