After completing a two-year Las Vegas residency at Park MGM, releasing his first solo album in eight years, and headlining the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show, Usher is set to embark on a North American tour.
The R&B-pop icon will kick off his 24-city ‘Past Present Future’ tour on August 20 at the Capital One Arena in Washington D.C.
The ‘Past Present Future’ tour will traverse through numerous major cities in North America before concluding at the United Center in Chicago on October 29. The tour itinerary includes stops in Baltimore, Boston, Philadelphia, Toronto, Brooklyn, New York, Detroit, Denver, Los Angeles, Oakland, California, Dallas, Austin, Texas, Miami, Atlanta, Charlotte, N.C., and St. Louis.
According to a press release, general ticket sales for Usher’s tour will commence Monday at 10 a.m. local time on LiveNation.com. A Citi and Verizon presale will begin on Wednesday. As of now, no opening acts have been announced.
Prior to his tour, Usher is slated to headline the Super Bowl on Sunday at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium. This won’t be his first time performing at the venue; he made a guest appearance alongside Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am in 2011.
“I got a chance to see a bit of what it felt like,” Usher told The Associated Press in a recent interview. In his first Super Bowl performance, he descended from the stadium ceiling to perform OMG in Arlington, Texas.
