Even before the final leg of his 2016 Somewhere On A Beach Tour ends, Dierks Bentley is planning 2017 with fans around the world.
Bentley released details today (Oct. 10) for his 2017 What The Hell World Tour, which is set to launch its first leg Jan. 19 in Dayton, Ohio and hit 23 cities, including a career-first headlining spot at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Jan. 21.
Special guests may vary but are set to include Cole Swindell and Jon Pardi. Watch a “censored” version of the 2017 tour announcement at People.com.
“Coming off the electricity and emotion of two nights at Red Rocks last week, it felt right to just go ahead and announce plans for next year and keep this thing rolling,” shared Bentley. “There’s a song on my album called ‘What The Hell Did I Say’ and it seemed like an appropriate title for a tour with Cole and Pardi. I have a feeling I’ll be asking myself that question the morning after many of our shows and late night hangs because you really don’t know what will happen when the three of us get together. There has been a lot of drunk calls and texts between all of us over the last year trying to make this tour happen, and I’m excited we were able to pull it off.”
Pre-sale tickets for select dates including Nashville go on sale Tuesday (Oct. 4), with the first public on-sales scheduled for this Friday, Oct. 7 at www.dierks.com and www.livenation.com.
