Kenny Chesney will join his good friend Peyton Manning at a fundraising gala in Indianapolis next March for the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St. Vincent:

Tickets to the annual event — “Celebration of Caring,” which benefits the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St. Vincent — have become one of the hottest to get for Indianapolis’ social and sports-loving crowds. The black-tie gala offers guests a chance to rub elbows with Manning and his family members. Manning’s parents, Archie and Olivia, attend.

And it ought to be extra-glamorous March 4 because the party will be the opening gala for the JW Marriott, the new $450 million landmark hotel Downtown.

Chesney is expected to perform an entire concert that night, according to Wednesday’s announcement of the event’s details. No word, though, on whether the Colts quarterback will get on stage and sing a song with Chesney, as Manning has been known to do.

Bob Costas, host of NBC’s “Football Night in America,” will emcee. As usual, Manning and his wife, Ashley, are the event’s honorary chairpeople.

The event will be held March 4th. Get more information and purchase tickets at stvincent.org.
