Singer Usher is on a roll! After his Las Vegas residency and Super Bowl show, he's now gearing up for his ‘Usher: Past Present Future’ tour. The tour, starting on August 20 in Washington, DC, will visit 24 cities including Brooklyn, Miami, and Atlanta.
Usher will also be the first performer at Los Angeles' Inuit Dome. The tour will conclude with two nights at Chicago’s United Center on Oct. 28-29.
According to a press release, tickets for the tour will go on sale on February 12 on LiveNation.com. There will also be presales for Citi and Verizon customers starting on February 7. No opening acts have been announced yet.
Usher will perform at the Super Bowl on February 4 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. He has performed there once before, as a guest with 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.
Usher's momentum is soaring ahead of the tour announcement. His ninth album, ‘Coming Home,’ featuring guest appearances from Burna Boy, Latto, H.E.R., 21 Savage, and others, is set to release on Feb. 9.
Just two days later, he'll headline the Super Bowl Halftime show, one of the biggest stages globally. Additionally, he's confirmed to headline alongside Janet Jackson and Backstreet Boys at the Lovers & Friends festival in Las Vegas on May 4.
‘It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before,’ said Usher of the Halftime show.
‘Thank you to the fans and everyone who made this opportunity happen. I’ll see you real soon,’ he added.
