Country music icon Kenny Chesney will be returning to the Pine Tree State, adding a stop at the Maine Savings Amphitheater on the Bangor Waterfront to his 'Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour.'

However, this show in Bangor is much different than the others on this tour.

The 'Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour' actually has Chesney primarily visiting MLB, NFL, and MLS stadiums, with three shows booked for Gillette Stadium. It’s a very good look for Bangor that he decided to bring some intimacy to our neck of the woods.

But of course, this isn’t the first time that Kenny Chesney has played Bangor.

Although, the last time he was here, it looked very, very different. Also, the venue was named something else altogether!

The last time that Kenny Chesney played on the Bangor Waterfront was on August 16th, 2018, for the 'Trip Around The Sun Tour,' Chesney’s sixteenth headlining concert tour. Bangor was one of the last stops on the tour, concluding in Foxborough, Massachusetts, at Gillette Stadium on August 25th.

The Bangor show was held at the Darling’s Waterfront Pavilion, now known as the Maine Savings Amphitheater, and if you’ve been to a waterfront show within the past few years, you know that the venue certainly has had a 'glow-up' since the last time Kenny played here.

Supporting the 'Trip Around The Sun Tour' was Old Dominion who, at the time, were promoting their latest and second studio album, 'Happy Endings,' which featured hits like 'No Such Thing as a Broken Heart' and 'Hotel Key.'

Looking forward to Chesney’s return to Maine with the 'Sun Goes Down 2024 Tour' on Thursday, August 15th!
