This year, Hy-Vee blew the doors off music fans in Iowa with a tremendous lineup for IndyCar Race Weekend at Iowa Speedway. It couldn't be better, right? Wrong.
I'm pretty sure when I received the media release from Hy-Vee my mouth dropped open. They're bringing in some of the biggest names in music for performances the weekend of July 22 and 23, 2023. Here's who race and music fans will see take to the stage next year at Iowa Speedway in Newton.
On Saturday, July 22, prior to the IndyCar race, it's Carrie Underwood. Yes, Carrie Underwood will open the day.
After that day's IndyCar race, another country superstar will take to the stage. It's Kenny Chesney.
