Having to cancel a concert is always a last resort for performers. But on Thursday, the Instagram page for Fenway Park announced the cancellation of the concert. To make it worse, there was no information given as to why the show was canceled. The message read, “Due to unforeseen circumstances, the Shakira and Jason Aldean and Brooks & Dunn performances originally scheduled for May 29th and May 30th respectively at Fenway Park have been canceled.”
That’s right, outside of getting a show from both Aldean and Brooks & Dunn, Shakira was also slated to take the stage. And that was just a taste as the openers for the night included Nate Smith and RaeLynn.
Still Time To See Jason Aldean And Brooks & Dunn
Before the concert was shockingly canceled, Aldean expressed his excitement about performing at Fenway Park. He said, “Playing Fenway Park has always been a highlight for me over the years. I love the city of Boston, the people and the energy surrounding the city. Getting to play it with some of my musical heroes, Brooks & Dunn, is going to be one for the ages.”
It wasn’t just Aldean who showed his excitement as Kix Brooks added, “It’s going to be a blast playing such an iconic stadium like Fenway with our buddy Jason. See you in the spring, Boston!”
While fans were saddened over the canceled concert, Fenway Park announced that the tickets for the concert would be refunded at the point of purchase. And for those who wanted to see Aldean and Brooks & Dunn in concert – there was still time.
For Aldean, he kicked off his Full Throttle Tour 2025 just a few days ago. And when looking at Brooks & Dunn, they will travel to Nashville on June 5th to take part in the CMA Fest.
