Carteret PAC presents Jo Dee Messina

originally published: 03/05/2026

(CARTERET, NJ) -- Chart-topping country music icon Jo Dee Messina will perform at The URSB Carteret Performing Arts and Events Center on Friday, June 12, 2026. Messina is known for her powerful vocals and extensive catalog including nine number-one hits, 16 Top 40 songs, and awards and nominations from the ACM, CMA, AMA, Billboard, and the Grammys. Showtime is 8:000pm.

Messina has become a North Star in the music world, carving a path for artists and inspiring the younger generation from Ella Langley and Lainey Wilson to Cole Swindell's ode to "Heads Carolina, Tails California," and Sierra Ferrell and Nikki Lane's cover of "Lesson in Leavin,'" she's not just a country icon — her influence spreads across multiple generations and genres.

Jo Dee continuously sells out venues of all types, with a live show that entertains fans of all ages and gives them opportunities to create memories, as generations come together and sing the songs that continue to make up much of their lives’ soundtracks.  Jo Dee is one of the most passionate, high-energy performers in the business.

Sharing her hit tunes; unreleased, emotionally driven songs; worship music; and personal testimony, she travels the country and receives rave reviews for her authenticity, commitment, and openness on stage.

Tickets are available for purchase online. The URSB Carteret Performing Arts and Events Center is located at 46 Washington Avenue in Carteret, New Jersey.
