Kelsea Ballerini is coming home ‒ for a special one night only concert in Knoxville, Tennessee at Thompson-Boling Arena.
It's Ballerini's first headlining arena show, organizers say. In promotional images for “The Homecoming Show,” she's got a Vols jacket casually slung over one shoulder.
The country star and Knoxville native, 30, will perform at 7 p.m. Nov. 2. Tickets for Kelsea’s fan club go on sale at 10 a.m. Sept. 13. Tickets for the general public go on sale through Ticketmaster at 10 a.m. Sept. 15.
Ballerini shared a promotional video on Instagram Tuesday to the tune of her song "Half of My Hometown," featuring fellow Knoxville native Kenny Chesney. In the video, she and her dog Dibs hopped in a truck as they were both decked out in Tennessee memorabilia and explored Knoxville's hotspots before ending at Thompson-Boling Arena.
"Throughout the last decade and four albums, there has been a consistent ode to my hometown. whether it be lyrically like in ‘half of my hometown’ or celebrating milestone moments in venues like my high school, the tennessee theater, or the civic center, it’s always been incredibly important to me to go back to the place that let me go to chase my dream," the country artist captioned the video.
She added: "Playing thompson-boling has been on my bucket list since i was a little kid watching my favorite musicians come through town and is the perfect place to celebrate such a bookmark year and kick off a new level of touring. see you november 2, Knoxville,"
Ingrid Andress and Georgia Webster will open “The Homecoming Show.”

She has embraced her East Tennessee roots throughout her career, filming her "Half of My Hometown" video there in 2021 and visiting with her Central High School teachers earlier this year.
Ballerini will likely be performing songs from her re-released EP "Rolling Up The Welcome Mat (For Good)" in August, which delves into her life after the finalization of her 2022 divorce from Australian country singer Morgan Evans.
Up next, Ballerini is scheduled to perform tonight at the MTV Video Music Awards. The awards show also coincides with her 30th birthday.
