The Gambler Sits In For One More Deal: Kenny Rogers Announces Farewell Concert Celebration In Nashville

Kenny Rogers is going all in for one more hand with an all-star, once-in-a-lifetime concert taping to celebrate his legendary 60-year career, “All In For The Gambler: Kenny Rogers’ Farewell Concert Celebration.” The Bridgestone Arena tribute concert in Nashville on Oct. 25 will include performances by Rogers, Dolly Parton, Little Big Town, Alison Krauss, The Flaming Lips, Idina Menzel, Jamey Johnson, Elle King and many other special guests that will be announced in the coming weeks.

This once-in-a-lifetime event will also feature the final performance together by Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, singing one of pop music’s most beloved duets of all time.

“As I’m bringing this chapter of my career to a close, this will be an unforgettable way to celebrate with my talented friends, who I’m so grateful to have crossed paths with,” says Kenny Rogers. “It means so much that they would feel compelled to do this for me. Of course, the night would not be the same without Dolly Parton being part of it. We’ve enjoyed a special friendship for decades, and I’ll forever look back fondly on the many collaborations, performances, and laughs we’ve shared as some of the most extraordinary moments of my career. I know it will be a moving experience for us standing on that stage together for one last time.”

Tickets for the Blackbird Presents show go on sale July 21 at 10 a.m. CT online at Ticketmaster.com, by phone at 800-745-3000, all Ticketmaster locations and the Bridgestone Arena box office. A portion of the ticket proceeds will benefit the T.J. Martell Foundation and the Kenny Rogers Children’s Center.
