Twain announces first Nashville performance in eight years
Shania Twain has announced a special Nashville show for summer 2023. The country superstar shared the news on social media, addressing rumors she’d be headlining a concert in Music City next year.
“There’s been a few rumors in the press about what’s coming next from me – It’s been fun to watch 😂 Well I am here to officially confirm ONE of those rumors… NASHVILLE, won’t you wake up dreaming with me, @kelseaballerini and @breland at @geodispark on June 7th 2023??”
Tickets for the show are on sale Friday, October 28th at 10 am local time.
Geodis Park is the home of the Major League Soccer franchise Nashville SC. The stadium holds nearly twice as many as Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena where the country superstar last played in town in 2015.
The year 2022 is a big one for the Canadian country-pop superstar. Last month, she released “Waking Up Dreaming,” her first new single since 2017 and her first with new label partner Republic Records. The song was first heard in her blockbuster career-spanning Netflix documentary Not Just A Girl, released in July, and included on the companion compilation album, Not Just A Girl (The Highlights), released last month. Twain is on the heels of announcing a new album, her first since 2017’s No. 1-selling Now.
Twain is among the 2022 Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame inductees, along with Steve Wariner, Hillary Lindsey, Gary Nicholson and David Malloy. The five inductees-elect will join the 223 previously inducted members of the elite organization when they are officially inducted during the 52nd Anniversary Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame Gala on Sunday, October 30th at the Music City Center.
Twain has also been cast as Mrs. Potts in ABC’s Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration.Presented by The Wonderful World of Disney, the two-hour reimagining of the beloved story of Beauty and the Beast will be taped in front of a live audience at Disney Studios in Burbank, CA and will air Thursday, December 15th from 8-10 pm EST/PT on ABC and on Disney+ the next day.
In September, she wrapped her Shania Twain “Let’s Go!” The Las Vegas Residency at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. The show opened in December 2019 with Twain serving as creative director. It features a high-energy production that’s a nonstop party, taking fans on a spectacular journey through Twain’s monumental catalogue of hits, including “Man! I Feel Like A Woman!,” “You’re Still The One,” and “That Don’t Impress Me Much.”
