In what promises to quickly sell out, pop icon Janet Jackson is gearing up to energize the "X" in St. Paul once again. Stating her affection for the Twin Cities through her music—giving a shoutout to Minneapolis in "Escapade"—Jackson is not shy to declare her long-standing ties with the region where her collaboration with legendary producers Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis at Flyte Tyme Studios skyrocketed her career. As reported by CBS News Minnesota, Jackson's "Together Again" tour will make another stop at Xcel Energy Center on June 18, reviving memories of her multi-platinum hits and debuting new thrills.

But wait, there's more—Texans are also to get a taste of Jackson's musical prowess as she announces an extension of her tour, with a performance at Fort Worth's Dickies Arena slated for July 25. This comes after her acclaimed 2023 tour dubbed the highest-selling of her career, which saw fans fill arenas, according to CultureMap Fort Worth. Alongside her on stage will be none other than hip-hop artist Nelly, ready to deliver an amped-up concert experience.

Tour frenzy is expected to hit high gear with ticket presales for the summer 2024 run commencing today, January 17, at 10 am. Fans eager to secure a spot can mark their calendars for the general ticket sale to kick off on January 19, also at 10 am. VIP Packages, teasing with meet-and-greet opportunities and premium seating, are also up for grabs for hardcore devotees looking for an extra slice of the Janet Jackson experience.

With a storied career that has firmly planted Jackson in the echelons of pop royalty, the "Together Again" tour not only celebrate over four decades of her contribution to music but also commemorates significant milestones for her albums "The Velvet Rope," "Janet," and "Rhythm Nation." Tour dates released show an ambitious lineup of stops from coast to coast, ensuring that fans across the country can once again witness the energy and hits that have cemented Jackson's legacy as a musical powerhouse.
