Wynonna Judd brings The Hard Truth Tour to Greenfield Lake

The country great plays Greenfield Lake Amphitheater on Sunday, March 14, 2027, part of a 2027 leg behind her new album "The Hard Truth."

Mid-March at Greenfield Lake is that hopeful hinge of the year in Wilmington, when an outdoor show on a Sunday evening starts to sound like a reasonable idea again. Wynonna Judd is betting on it.

Wynonna Judd plays Greenfield Lake Amphitheater on Sunday, March 14, 2027, at 6 p.m. The amphitheater holds about 1,200, and tickets are through Ticketmaster. The date was announced October 26.

It is one of 16 shows added to The Hard Truth Tour for 2027, a leg that runs through the South, Midwest and Mid-Atlantic in February and March, per mxdwn and Showbiz Junkies. The run opens February 13 in San Antonio at the Tobin Center and closes with two nights at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, March 26 and 27, which The Music Universe reports will be her first headlining performances in that room. Wilmington lands less than two weeks before that finale.

Fan-club presales began October 28 and the general sale opened Friday, October 30, according to TicketNews, so tickets are on sale now.

The tour is named for her new record. *The Hard Truth* came out October 2 on ANTI- Records, as BroadwayWorld reported when the album and first tour dates were announced in August. iHeart framed it as her most personal, powerful work yet, and an ANTI- release signals a singer leaning toward the rootsier, more artist-driven side of her catalog. The fall 2026 leg launched in October, as MusicRow and Pollstar noted, so by the time she reaches the Cape Fear coast, these songs will have had a full season on the road.

By the time she reaches the Cape Fear, these songs will have had a full season on the road.

For Wilmington, the draw is the setting as much as the singer. Greenfield Lake Amphitheater is a 1,200-capacity outdoor room, which means a voice that has filled arenas gets heard at close range. A 6 p.m. Sunday start also keeps it friendly for the whole family and for anyone driving in from Brunswick or Pender County with work on Monday.

Bring a layer. March evenings here can turn cool once the sun drops behind the trees, and you will want to stay for the encore.
