The Tower Amphitheatre in Austin, Texas, has announced it will debut with a concert by Kenny Chesney April 5.

The amphitheatre – the first large-sized outdoor venue built by Live Nation – is located at the Circuit of the Americas racetrack.

The 15,000-capacity shed will have fixed seating for 5,240, 18 loge boxes and hospitality areas.

Kacey Musgraves is expected to open the show. Chesney is set to begin his “No Shoes Nation” tour in March and is scheduled for 46 North American cities.
