Whether you loved him on “Celebrity Apprentice” or have an appreciation for his hit “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk,” country star Trace Adkins is headed to the Fox Performing Arts Center in Riverside.

He will perform at the Fox on Sunday, May 18, and tickets go on sale Friday, Jan. 24 at noon.

Adkins, who has visited area casinos and the Stagecoach Country Music Festival in recent years, recently entered a rehab program for alcohol after an incident on the “Country Cruising” cruise in the Caribbean last week.

The author and actor is best known for hits such as “You’re Gonna Miss This,” “(This Ain’t) No Thinkin’ Thing” and more.

Adkins’ appearance marks the second major country music show announced for the venue since new operator Live Nation took over. Willie Nelson will perform at the Fox on April 1.

Tickets for the show are $33.50-$76, before fees.

You can purchase them via www.livenation.com or at the box office of the Fox Performing Arts Center at 3801 Mission Inn Ave. in Riverside . The box office is open Monday through Friday noon to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on show days until show time. You can also call the box office at 951-779-9800.
