Concerts are some of the best ways to spend summer nights or days with friends. Here’s your lineup of concerts around the St. Louis area you won’t want to miss this summer – and you won’t have to travel far!

Taking a quick jump into what promises warmth in St. Louis with country legends Brad Paisley, performing April 23rd at the Chaifetz Arena, and Tim McGraw, performing April 30th at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater. Coming with them are crowd favorites like comedian Kevin Nealon, and Russel Dickerson!

Throughout May you’ll see artists like H.E.R., May 4th at the Pageant, Kenny Chesney at Busch Stadium May 7th, New Kids on the Block May 14th at the Enterprise Center, Zac Bryan on May 19th, Miranda Lambert & Little Big Town on May 24th, and AJR going out of May with a bang on the 31st all at the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater.

June is a great month to go from graduation parties in the mornings to concerts at night. Lee Brice will be performing June 11th, Bon Iver follows June 17th, and Rex Orange County is wondering if anyone cares they’ll be here June 18th for “Who Cares?” tour, all at Saint Louis Music Park.

Let me get my band lovers in here! Not only do we have Def Leppard and Motley Crue July 5th and 6th at Busch Stadium, 5SOS July 24th at Saint Louis Music Park, but Big Time Rush fans – get excited! After what felt like Forever, 8 long years of waiting for their return, July 31st you can relive the good old days at Hollywood Casino Amphitheater.

Don’t fill your calendars up yet in August. Machine Gun Kelly starts off on August 10th at the Enterprise Center, and Maren Morris follows on her “Humble Quest” Tour at Saint Louis Music Park on August 11th. Zac Brown Band knows we have to start a long weekend off partying, and arrives August 12th at Hollywood Casino Amphitheater. Keith Urban’s up August 19th, with Kid Rock on August 20th both rocking the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater stage. Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous tour invites fans August 27th at Hollywood Casino Amphitheater to join him in trying 3 things that work – “Rednecks, Red letters, Red dirt”!
