Country music legend coming to Columbia for concert
Country music legend Reba McEntire is coming to Columbia for a concert, promoters said Monday.
McEntire, called the “Queen of Country Music,” will perform her “Reba: Live In Concert” show at Colonial Life Arena on March 10, 2023, promoters said on Twitter.
McEntire, also well known as a TV and movie star, will be joined by special guests Terri Clark and The Issacs, according to promoters.
Tickets will go on sale to the public on Friday, but a presale will begin Tuesday at 10 a.m. at ticketmaster.com. Any tickets that are still available can be purchased the next business day online or at the Colonial Life Arena box office.
Information on ticket prices was not available.
The concert in Columbia is one of 14 new dates added to McEntire’s tour, as she extends her show in 2023, according to her website. It’s the only new performance added in the Carolinas, but McEntire had already announced plans for a Nov. 3 show in Raleigh, North Carolina.
“I am very grateful we’re continuing this tour on into 2023,” McEntire said on the website. “I’ve had so much fun being back out on the road and doing what I love to do most, entertaining people.”
McEntire has 35 No. 1 hits and has sold more than 56 million records worldwide and is known for hits “You’re Gonna Be,” “You Lie,” and “Is There Life Out There,” among other songs.
She’s a Country Music Hall of Fame and Hollywood Bowl member and has won 16 ACM Awards, 15 American Music Awards, nine People’s Choice Awards, six CMA Awards, three Grammy Awards, a GMA Dove Award and was a 2018 Kennedy Center Honors recipient, according to promoters.
McEntire is a Golden Globe nominated actress, has 11 movie credits to her name, a lead role on Broadway in Irving Berlin’s Annie Get Your Gun and starred in the six-season television sitcom Reba, promoters said. She can currently be seen as a regular on the third season of the ABC drama “Big Sky.”
