The New Kids On The Block members may not be ‘kids’ anymore but that’s not stopping them from heading out on a tour this summer. The Main Event tour will feature NKOTB along with TLC and Nelly and will kick off on May 1, 2015 in Vegas. The North American summer tour will hit 30 cities before finishing up on July 2nd in Buffalo, New York.
“We always have something special up our sleeves,” said NKOTB member Donnie Wahlberg. “Our fans keep asking us to come back out on the road, and we want to keep giving them what they want! We wanted to make sure it was something new and fresh and fun and totally worthwhile for all of our supporters year after year. This year, we are making it THE MAIN EVENT. And we promise it will be THE TICKET of the summer.”
“We are thrilled to be able to join pop icons NKTOB and Nelly on tour. We are equally excited to be back on the road connecting with our fans in such huge arenas,” added TLC.
Advance tickets go on sale on January 23 to American Express card members, and fans who RSVP on Facebook can start purchasing tickets on January 28th. The tickets go up for sale in wide release on January 31st through Live Nation.
