Ronnie Dunn Cancels Miracle on Broadway Appearance

Ronnie Dunn has had to cancel his appearance at Friday’s (Dec. 16) Miracle on Broadway concert in Nashville after coming down with a cold and sore throat. Dunn was part of the first Miracle on Broadway event in 2014.

Created by Kelly Clarkson, Friday’s event at the Bridgestone Arena benefits Abe’s Garden, the Nashville Public Library Fund, Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee and the W. O. Smith Music School.

Steve Wariner and Hunter Hayes have been newly added to the lineup, which also includes Reba, Kelsea Ballerini, RaeLynn, the SteelDrivers, and Chip Esten.

A few tickets remain and can be purchased at the Bridgestone Arena box office, all TicketMaster outlets, livenation.com or by calling 800-745-3000. Concert goers are also encouraged to bring a nonperishable food item for Second Harvest Food Bank.
