COLUMBUS, Ohio — The “queen of hip-hop soul” is bringing her tour to Columbus in April along with two special guests.
Mary J. Blige will make a stop at the Nationwide Arena on April 2 during “The For My Fans Tour.” Performing alongside her are artists NE-YO and Mario.
Tickets go on sale Oct. 4 at 10 a.m. and can be purchased here.
The tour will come at the heels of her album release, “Gratitude.” The album will officially be released on Nov. 15.
Blige will travel to 27 cities during her tour. The first concert will kick off Jan. 30 at Greensboro Coliseum in North Carolina. The tour wraps up in Boston at TD Garden on April 14.
“I am so excited to kick off this tour. I have amazing fans and am so grateful for all of the love and support they have given me throughout the years,” Blige said. “This tour is for them, and I cannot wait to be able to travel to all these cities and see everyone. I am in such a place of immense gratitude and peace at this moment, so also having the chance to release my new album “Gratitude” on November 15th ahead of this tour is really special to me.”
Ahead of the album release, Blige will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Oct. 19 in Cleveland.
