Kelsea Ballerini announces big concert and Luke Combs’ venue set to open in November | Music City Minute

Sep 11, 2024, 3:15 PM

Kelsea Ballerini will be celebrating the release of her new album, “Patterns,” in the most epic way. The “Miss Me More” singer posted a promo video featuring her dog, Dibs, checking out iconic locations around New York City. Dibs is then met by Kelsea inside of an arena. She kneels down and asks “How cool would it be if Mom played Madison Square Garden?” The “Patterns” celebration concert is slated for October 29, four days after the release of the new album.
Speaking of iconic venues, Luke Comb’s Category 10 is set to open in November. The three-story hot spot is billed as the largest and most versatile entertainment establishment in Music City. This massive venue will need a massive staff to match. That’s why a three-day “Grand Hire” event is scheduled for September 30 through October 2.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
