Fresh off her musical guest appearance on “Saturday Night Live,” Kelsey Ballerini is heading back on the road for 18 more shows.
From March 6 to July 1, the country star will be touring the country as part of her ongoing ‘HeartFirst Tour’.
The tour, which began in late 2022, had to be extended into the spring and summer due to high demand.
Soon after, the concerts began to sell out.
“Well, it went fast,” Ballerini continued Instagram. “Like I couldn’t be more excited to be back on the road…you’re already selling these?! Okay, now going to make the show even more special.
This time, she’ll be hitting the Northeast when she stops by the Ates Arena in Atlantic City on March 17 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
And if you need last-minute tickets, they’re surprisingly still available – even for sold-out shows.
Some can even be had for as little as $55 before fees at Vivid Seats.
