How much are you going to love seeing shows at the Ashley Furniture HomeStore Pavilion?

Live Nation Entertainment announced a five-year name deal with Ashley Furniture HomeStore this afternoon. The first show at the newly-named venue will be Tim McGraw with Luke Bryan and The Band Perry on Friday, June 3.

Other scheduled shows include Motley Crue and Poison on June 17, the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival on July 15, Journey on July 24, Warped Tour on August 7, and Def Leppard on September 3.

Speaking of things you're likely looking forward to: Seeing the Warped Tour, an all-day skate and punk fest, in early August when the Phoenix heat is at its peak? I'll see you over at the Ashley Furniture HomeStore Pavilion!
