Jason Aldean announced that his second Concert for the Kids will take place on Aug. 11 in his hometown of Macon, Ga. The concert will once again benefit Children’s Hospital Navicent Health, Bibb County’s only dedicated pediatric facility in central Georgia.

After raising more than $500,000 at last year’s event, the two-time reigning ACM Entertainer of the Year is set to bring the show to the Macon Coliseum this year. Tickets go on sale to the public beginning Friday, June 23, at 10 a.m. ET at JasonAldean.com and Ticketmaster.com.

“Supporting these kids in Macon and their families is something that I’m really proud to be a part of,” said Jason. “We’re looking forward to getting back to town, kicking things up a couple notches and hopefully raise a huge amount of money for the hospital so that they can continue to grow and serve my hometown community.”
