Kenny Chesney recently wrapped up his inaugural 15-show Live at Sphere Las Vegas residency, but at his final show, Chesney announced that he is returning next summer for another series of shows.

Chesney told the crowd at the end of the show: “To be able to take our audience on such a magical journey has been one of the highlights of our lives. I can tell you that a couple of days ago…we were asked to come back. Next summer, we will come back to the Sphere. If you guys will come back, we will come back,” he continue

A social post featuring a video from Kenny was also captioned: “This summer at @SphereVegas was so magical. We are gonna do it again next summer in 2026. Details later on this year. What a blast this was. Thanks to everyone who came to see us in Vegas. We are so grateful. Let’s do it again. KC #Summertime26 #IGoBack26″

Chesney said in the video: “I want to thank you guys for all the love, the energy, the passion. For loving this music so much. And I want to let you know, we’ve been invited back for next summer, summer of ’26, and we’re coming. If you guys come, we’ll come. So thank you very much. We’ll see you next summer here at Sphere.”

In a press release, Chesney expounds on his decision to bring his Las Vegas residency back in 2026: “After all the guests, all the songs we hadn’t planned on, all the people who came from all over, I just didn’t want to keep it a secret. I knew we were coming back, and if No Shoes Nation had half as much fun as we did, I wanted them to know we’d see them right here next summer. What could be better?”
