Country star Carrie Underwood (above) will sweep through Connecticut when her Blown Away Tour comes to Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport on Saturday, Sept. 15 and the XL Center in Hartford on Saturday, Nov. 10.
Tickets for both shows go on sale Thursday, May 24 via Ticketmaster. Hunter Hayes is the opener.
“I can’t wait to get back out on the road and perform new music from my new album for my fans,” Underwood is quoted on the tour’s official site. “We have a lot of exciting things planned!”
The site notes that Underwood is donating $1 from each ticket sold on the North American leg of the tour to support Red Cross disaster relief.
Underwood’s two previous headline tours, 2008’s Carnival Ride Tour and 2010’s Play On Tour, performed for a combined total of nearly 250 shows with 2.2 million fans, according to the site, and she wrapped both years as the top-ranked female country touring artist.
