Tue Oct 16, 8:43 PM ET
On November 14, Brooks' final show in the series of nine concerts will be simulcast from the Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri to more than 300 movie theaters, which are part of the U.S. movie theater advertising network National CineMedia network.
Brooks, who retired more than nine years ago, sold out nine concerts in a record one hour and 58 minutes earlier this week, his representatives said in a statement.
National CineMedia's founding members include theater operators AMC Entertainment Inc., Cinemark USA Inc, a unit of Cinemark Holdings Inc, and Regal Entertainment Group.
All tickets will be priced at $10 and will go on sale on October 19. An encore presentation of the concert will be rebroadcast in theaters on November 15th. Tickets for the encore event also will go on sale on October 19.
The simulcast performance is being distributed by Anschutz Co's AEG Live, a concert promotion company, and other parties, the companies said.
