Tina Turner Returns

Tina Turner has revealed dates for her North American arena tour, which is set to launch October 1 at Sprint Center in Kansas City, Mo.

The tour will stop in 17 cities across the U.S. and Canada before concluding on December 8 at the Bell Centre in Montreal. The show will include hit songs spanning Turner’s iconic career, and the production will feature a full band, loads of choreography, hi-tech lighting and all the bells and whistles you’d expect.

"After performing with Beyonce at The Grammy Awards, the response was overwhelming," Turner said. "Everywhere I went people were asking me when I was going back on tour. So after a lot of thought and planning, I can answer the only way I know how. See you in Kansas City where we’ll kick the tour off!" 

Turner’s last worldwide trek, Twenty Four Seven, hit the No. 1 spot on Pollstar’s Top Tours of the Year for 2000. That trek attracted more than three million fans to 23 international venues over nine months.
