PHOENIX — If you couldn’t snag tickets to see Jason Aldean at the WM Phoenix Open Birds Nest last week, don’t fret.
The country star is returning to a bigger Valley venue later this year when his Highway Desperado Tour stops at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre (formerly Ak-Chin Pavilion).
Mitchell Tenpenny, Corey Kent and Dee Jay Silver will open the Oct. 5 Phoenix show.
Presales start Tuesday, and tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Friday.
Aldean played to a sold-out crowd at the Birds Nest party tent in Scottsdale four days before Monday’s tour announcement. Prior to that, his most recent Valley show was at Ak-Chin Pavilion in September 2021.
