Kenny Chesney To Include Sandbar Experience At Sphere
With no tour or traditional shows this summer, Kenny Chesney wanted to make sure No Shoes Nation (his fan club) got to have their show and another dimension, too. So, he’s adding his own Sandbar Experience during his Sphere residency.
As the first country artist to play the groundbreaking Sphere in Las Vegas — which features a 160,000 square foot screen that wraps up, over, and around the audience and features 4D technology — the East Tennessee superstar didn’t want to lose the direct contact that marks his stadium shows.
Kenny said, “I know this is a whole other way to play live. But that doesn’t mean we don’t feed like vampires off that energy down front. Everything the people in the Sandbar give us, we turn right around and put into the music.”
He added, “There’s a connection there that’s unlike any other. And when we look down, see everybody singing along, rocking out or dancing, it drives us to another level.”
To that end, Chesney worked to create a Sandbar experience at his 15-date Vegas residency that matches the moment. For those fans who know the best fun happens close to the stage, this year won’t be any different.

Known for exhaustive live shows, Chesney saw an opportunity to create a new dynamic in his live shows. Not only will he be pulling from previously unplayed songs, rare favorites, and classics for the set list, he’s taken the opportunity to create completely new visuals to really consider the moments and emotions that each of these songs contains.
He said, “And we’re going to leave room in each show to create a couple of special moments that will be unique to that night. Maybe it’s a surprise guest, a song we will only play that specific night, but I’ve been blessed with an amazing group of friends, songs, and players, so why not make each night something really individual for No Shoes Nation?”
