ALLENTOWN, Pa. — Janet Jackson is celebrating 50 years in the biz with a stop in the Lehigh Valley.
Jackson's "Together Again" tour will take place at the PPL Center on May 18.
- Janet Jackson will perform at the PPL Center on May 18
- The tour will feature songs from her albums "Janet" and "The Velvet Rope"
- Tickets start at $66
The tour will celebrate the 56-year-old's longstanding career and focus on 1997’s ‘The Velvet Rope’ and 1993’s "Janet" alongside her greatest hits. She will also debut some new music for fans.
It will be the first time Jackson has played in the Lehigh Valley since 2017, when she sold out the 2,400 seats at Sands Bethlehem Event Center, now Wind Creek Event Center, in a record 30 minutes.
PPL Center holds about 10,000 people for concerts.
'YEAH!'
Joining her on the tour is “Fast and Furious” star Ludacris.
During a December appearance on TODAY, Jackson told the hosts she was excited to have the rapper, known for his hits “Rollout” and “Yeah!," share the stage.
“I’ve never done it with him before, so he’s a great fit. [I] thought it would be a lot of fun.”
This is Jackson's first tour since her Las Vegas residency in 2019. That same year, the "Control" crooner was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Last year, the notoriously private star allowed fans an in-depth look into her life with A&E and Lifetime's Janet Jackson two-part documentary.
