NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A music icon will be celebrating her birthday this April with a musical event unlike any other.

The “Loretta Lynn: An All-Star Birthday Celebration Concert” will honor the 2019 Grammy nominee on Monday, April 1 at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena.

Lynn, who is one of the most awarded musicians of all time, has been inducted into more music Halls of Fame than any female recording artist. She was also the first woman to be named the Country Music Association's Entertainer of the Year in 1972.

This is why it's no surprise that musicians and producers alike are excited to show up to celebrate this living legend.

The list of initial guests to announce their attendance at the celebration of the Queen of Country Music is star-studded. Among them are Alan Jackson, Brandy Clark, Darius Rucker, Garth Brooks, George Strait, Jack White, Kacey Musgraves, Keith Urban, Little Big Town, Margo Price, Martina McBride, Miranda Lambert, Pistol Annies and Trisha Yearwood.

"I am so excited to celebrate my 87th birthday with all my friends,” shares Lynn. “This is the first time I've ever had a birthday party! My birthday wish has come true. The only other wish I have is that Keith Urban jumps out of my birthday cake!"

Tickets to this celebration will go on sale Friday, January 18 at 10:00 a.m. (CST) with prices ranging from $29.50 to $149.50 (plus applicable fees) and limited VIP packages available.
