Jason Aldean, Brooks & Dunn, Brothers Osborne, Kane Brown, Luke Bryan, Luke Combs, Sheryl Crow, Dan +Shay, Jelly Roll, Ashley McBryde, Megan Moroney and Morgan Wallen are just a few of the stars who’ve played the show in the past.
Presales start Wednesday, with tickets going on sale to the public on Friday.
