Kentucky natives Tyler Childers, Chris Stapleton and Dwight Yoakam will perform at the just-announced “Kentucky Rising” benefit concert set for Tuesday, October 11 at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky.

“Kentucky Rising” was organized in response to the devastating flooding in the area earlier this summer. According to a press release, 100% of net proceeds from the concert will benefit the “Kentucky Rising Fund” to support flood relief work and recovery efforts in Eastern Kentucky, including support for the many victims, their families and first responders. Under guidance from the Blue Grass Community Foundation, the “Kentucky Rising Fund” will strategically support both immediate needs and long-term recovery projects as they emerge.  The historic flooding left at least 39 people dead across Kentucky, and hundreds more were left homeless.

Citi® cardmembers will have access to purchase pre-sale tickets until Thursday, September 15th 10:00pm local time through Citi Entertainment. For complete pre-sale details visit citientertainment.com.

General ticketing for the one-night-only event will go on sale this Friday, September 16. Additional details about the benefit concert can be found at KentuckyRising.com.
