BEGINNING DECEMBER 7 AT 10:00 AM

COLUMBIA, SC – Kenny Chesney, who's played a country-world
record 85 stadium shows in his career, makes it to over 100 with today's
announcement of 17 stadium dates on his 'No Shoes Nation' Tour. Chesney
announced that the second stop on his tour will be in Columbia on Saturday, May
4, 2013 for a performance at Williams-Brice Stadium.

Tickets
for Chesney's performance will go on sale December 7 at 10:00 AM online through
www.LMCtix.com, by phone at 1-855-4-LMC-TIX, in person at the
Lexington Medical Center Box Office inside Colonial Life Arena or at the
Columbia Play It Again Sports Store. Ticket prices and additional show
information will be posted to www.ColonialLifeArena.com
as they become available.

Chesney's previous stadium show in Columbia in
April 2008 left him wanting to return for the fans. "I thought it was very important to come back
to South Carolina and give them a real show," Chesney explained. "Last time I
played there was the night I broke my foot on the very first song...I'm going to
come out and try to put on the best show I possibly can because I think all the
fans there deserve it from the last time."

Global
Spectrum’s Lexie Boone, General Manager of Colonial Life Arena, expressed his
excitement for the 'No Shoes Nation' Tour, "We are thrilled that the partnership
between Global Spectrum and The Messina Group can welcome Kenny Chesney back to
Columbia at Williams Brice Stadium. He is one of country music's biggest names
and we know how passionate he is about giving his fans an incredible
performance. This will be a concert that fans will remember for years to
come."

The
Corona Light Presents Kenny Chesney's 'No Shoes Nation' Tour, starring Kenny
Chesney, will feature GRAMMY-Award winning Zac Brown Band, whose latest album
'Uncaged' debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200. Special guests, Eli Young Band
and Kacey Musgraves will also take the stage.

"I
believe what we've created on the road is something special," says Chesney, "the
fans, myself, the band, the crew. But it's really the fans who have given us a
wonderful, unique life. What we've all built together is the 'No Shoes Nation.'
There is no better name for this tour."

'No
Shoes Nation' marks 20 years of touring for Chesney, who Billboard declares is
"The biggest ticket seller in country music and among the elite touring artists
in the world," and comes on the heels of his wildly successful 2012 'Brothers of
the Sun' Tour, which blew away more than 1.1 million fans across the country -
his 10th consecutive tour to hit that ticket sale milestone.

Kenny
Chesney is once again teaming up with CID Entertainment to offer very special
VIP packages for the 2013 tour.  Guests will choose from either Sandbar or
