Chesney heads back to The Sphere

Chesney made the announcement on Saturday night during his final show there this go round.

The shows are slated for June 19, 20, 24, 26 and 27.

"You can't truly understand until you start playing music with all the people there, feeling that energy and the way the visuals and the songs just consume people," Chesney said of the decision to come back. "The more I watched the fans having this experience I'm sure they couldn't imagine, the more ideas I had – both to reconfigure some of last year's songs, and a few songs that seemed like they should get this immersive treatment – and wanted to do."

"I think there are so many ways for people to play this venue, but I feel pretty sure nobody has had more fun there, brought more joy – or that freewheeling Sandbar experience – than No Shoes Nation. And wherever they sat, we could hear 'em, too. So, if you didn't get to see it, c'mon. And if you did, well, come live those songs again because this isn't something you get to do every single year."

Chesney was the first country artist to headline the 17,600-seat venue known for Sphere Immersive Sound, which includes 167,000 individual speakers that can be dialed in to each section with dazzling specificity, and immersive visual capabilities that deliver over 264 billion pixels across a screen that's 160,000 square feet.

Chesney is also about to release his new book, "Heart Life Music" and go on a book tour.
