New Edition is getting back into the New Jack Swing of things.

Following a massive 2022 tour, the famed R&B group decided to do it all over again next year and will take their “Legacy Tour” to arenas all over North America from March 9 through April 30.

And no, you don’t have to worry the whole group— Ronnie, Bobby, Ricky, Mike, Ralph and Johnny— will be there.

To sweeten the deal, they’re bringing along fellow icons Keith Sweat, the recently reunited Guy and Tank along for the ride as well.

On the 30-concert trek, New Edition and their impressive roster of opening acts will drop into the NY/NJ area three times— first up, they’ll hit Atlantic City’s Boardwalk Hall on March 18, then Newark’s Prudential Center on March 19 and finally, Elmont’s UBS Arena on April 20.

So, if you count yourself among the many #NE4Lifers and can’t wait to hear “Candy Girl,” live, here’s everything you need to know about the 2023 “Legacy Tour.”

A complete calendar featuring all upcoming tour dates, venues and links to buy tickets can be found below.

New Edition opening acts

The lineup for the “Legacy Tour” is truly stacked. In the off chance you’re not acquainted with the tour’s special guests, we’ve got a quick refresher ready to go for you.

Keith Sweat has five Top 10 Billboard hits and 14 huge albums under his belt, making him a bona fide headliner in his own right. In fact, he’s got a few arena gigs of his own lined up for next year. If you’re looking to fall in love with his music all over again, give “Twisted,” one of the all-time great slow jams, a spin.

Guy , currently made up of Teddy Riley, Aaron Hall and Damion Hall, broke up in 1991 and has reunited multiple times since the initial split. Most recently, the New Jack Swing pioneers played a handful of gigs in 2018-19 where they busted out their classic hits “Let’s Chill” and “Groove Me.”

Tank is a bit newer to the scene, getting his start in 2001. Over the past two decades, he’s steadily released music— including smash singles “Maybe I Deserve,” “Please Don’t Go” and “When We”— and developed a nice acting career as well. You very may well recognize him from his work in “The Real Husbands of Hollywood,” “Grown Folks” and, of course, “The New Edition Story.”

Huge R&B tours in 2023

Our musical forecast for next year: Expect lots of slow dances and party-starting anthems.

That’s because many of the biggest names in R&B have lined up tours in the coming months.

Rather than overwhelm you, here are just five of our favorite can’t miss acts you have to catch when they come to a city near you this winter, spring and summer.

New edition announces 2023 legacy tour dates.

Posted by Buddy Iahn | Dec 13, 2022

Keith Sweat, Guy & Tank will support the 30 city trek

Iconic Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum-selling R&B supergroup New Edition closed out 2022 with the highly successful The Culture Tour, nominated as one of the Top R&B Tours in the country by Pollstar. Selling out arenas across the country, the icons and The Black Promoters Collective (BPC) are happy to announce the 30 city Legacy Tour with a must-see lineup that includes a New Jack Swing reunion with Keith Sweat and the original members of Guy — featuring Teddy Riley, Aaron Hall, and Damion Hall — and Tank starting on Thursday, March 9th in Columbia, SC and ending on Sunday, April 30th in Tampa, FL.

Before offering to the general public, Legacy Tour tickets go on presale to American Express Card Members beginning Wednesday, December 14th at 10 am local time through Thursday, December 15th at 11:59 pm local time. Tickets will be available to the general public on Friday, December 16th at 10 am local and range from $59.50 to $179.50 via Ticketmaster .

“Few recording artists can attest to a superior 40-year career that stands the test of time, but New Edition can. When we partnered with NE for “The Culture Tour,” although I knew it would be stellar, their show exceeded my expectations; the guys were nothing short of miraculous. We are excited about partnering with New Edition to further the legacy of the foundation they have already laid,” states BPC CEO Gary Guidry.

New Edition hit the scene in 1983 with their iconic No. 1 debut album Candy Girl disrupting the music industry forty years ago. That same year, the album’s title cut knocked Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” out of the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot Black Singles chart. The group has gone on to win many awards, including BET’s Lifetime Achievement awards, and has one of the most highly watched biopics in music history, the three-part BET series: The New Edition Story , which attracted more than 29 million viewers. Comprised of Ronnie DeVoe, Bobby Brown, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, Ralph Tresvant, and Johnny Gill, New Edition has remained one of the most influential R&B groups in the world for close to four decades. With a vast catalog, New Edition is ready to perform a host of new hits that weren’t performed in 2022’s The Culture Tour , giving their fans a whole new experience to tuck in their memory book.

Keith Sweat entered the charts with his 3x Platinum debut solo album, Make It Last Forever , in 1987, giving the world its first New Jack Swing Billboard Hot 100 hit, “I Want Her.” The song, produced by Teddy Riley and Sweat, became the most successful R&B song in 1988 on the Billboard Hot R&B Songs chart. In 1997, Sweat formed the group LSG (Levert, Sweat, and Gill – Johnny Gill of New Edition), whose debut album, Levert.Sweat.Gill sold 2x Platinum and produced the hit song “My Body,” which became a Platinum single, spending seven weeks at No. 1 on the charts. In addition to touring and making new music, Sweat currently has the No. 1 nationally syndicated R&B evening radio show called The Sweat Hotel with Keith Sweat , reaching more than 50 markets across the country.

Teddy Riley ushered in a new musical genre called New Jack Swing, which included the formation of his group Guy with Aaron Hall and Damion Hall in 1987. The group’s first album, the self-titled masterpiece, quickly spawned the Billboard Hot 100 hit “I Like,” which, along with four other hit singles such as “Groove Me” and “Teddy’s Jam,” helped to propel the debut album to 2x Platinum status. The group disbanded after their second album, The Future , citing the stresses of the tragic loss of their former manager. However, Teddy Riley went on to produce for the likes of Michael Jackson and Lady Gaga. In addition, he was instrumental in the rise of Bobby Brown’s solo career, creating the megahit “My Prerogative.” The Legacy Tour will be the first time the group has come together to tour in more than 15 years.

New Edition is heading back on the road in 2023. The iconic R&B group has announced their headlining Legacy Tour ’23. They will be joined by Keith Sweat, Guy and special guest Tank.

The Legacy Tour kicks off March 9, 2023, at Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, South Carolina.

From there, the tour will hit various U.S. cities, including Washington, D.C., Chicago, Atlanta, San Diego, Los Angeles, Baltimore and Miami. The  Legacy Tour  will conclude April 30 in Tampa, Florida at Amalie Arena.

Presale begins this Thursday, Dec. 15 at 10 a.m. local time. Tickets will go on sale to the general public Friday, Dec. 16 at 10 a.m. local time.

New Edition’s upcoming tour will follow 2022’s  Culture Tour , which included special guests Charlie Wilson and Jodeci.

In 2021, it was announced that New Edition had signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA)  to represent them worldwide for touring, TV/film, theater and more.

Tank’s appearance on tour will support his final album,  R&B Money , which dropped in August and was included on Rated R&B’s Best R&B Albums of 2022 list. 

R&B Money  includes Tank’s radio hits “ Can’t Let It Show ,” “ I Deserve ” and the most recent “ Slow ” featuring J. Valentine. The two performed the bedroom banger at the 2022 Soul Train Awards .

Tank described his final album as “a labor of love to my fans and to the genre of R&B.” He added, “I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for artists like Marvin Gaye, Teddy Pendergrass, Keith Sweat, Al Green, as well as my fans who inspire me every day to make music. I wanted this album to pay homage to my influences and my evolution as an artist, and I think that’s what this final album represents.”

New Edition to launch 2023 tour with Keith Sweat, Guy and Tank as guests

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

“The Legacy Tour” coincides with the 40th anniversary year of New Edition’s debut, “Candy Girl.”

New Edition will embark on a new tour in 2023 and will bring along some important guests. The R&B group announced that its “Legacy Tour” will have support from Keith Sweat , Guy and Tank.

The supergroup sextet of Ronnie DeVoe, Bobby Brown , Ricky Bell, Mike Bivins, Ralph Tresvant and Johnny Gill is scheduled to perform in 30 venues in only a two-month span next spring. From March 9 to April 30, the group will play Charlotte, North Carolina, Washington D.C., Newark, New Jersey, Chicago, Cincinnati, Atlanta, Las Vegas and other cities.

Sweat, a longtime collaborator of Riley and Gill, is behind R&B classics, including “Make It Last Forever,” “Make You Sweat,” “Twisted” and “Nobody.” Guy — the reunited New Jack Swing pioneers Teddy Riley, Aaron Hall and Damion Hall — are known for hits like “Groove Me,” “I Like,” “Let’s Chill” and “Piece of My Love.”

Tank expressed his excitement about touring with his R&B heroes in a video he tweeted on Wednesday. “After 22 years of hard work and dedication, it is an honor to open for those who paved the way.”

The “Please Don’t Go” singer starred in both “The New Edition Story” and “The Bobby Brown Story” BET miniseries, playing former MCA Records executive Jheryl Busby.

The Legacy Tour kicks off as New Edition celebrates the 40th anniversary of its debut album, 1983’s “Candy Girl.” That album launched the then-quintet into music stardom with hits like the title track, “Popcorn Love” and “Is This the End.”

The group announced its return to the road less than a year after wrapping the “Culture Tour ” earlier this year. It featured Charlie Wilson and special guest, Jodeci.

Tour tickets can be purchased via Ticketmaster . Pre-sales begin at 10 a.m. local time on Dec. 15, while general public tickets go on sell at 10 a.m. local time on Dec. 16.

The Legacy Continues As New Edition and the Black Promoters Collective Announce Their New Tour for 2023

Iconic Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum-selling R&B supergroup New Edition closed out 2022 with the highly successful “The Culture Tour,” nominated as one of the Top R&B Tours in the country by Pollstar.

Selling out arenas across the country, the icons and The Black Promoters Collective (BPC) are happy to announce the 30-city “Legacy Tour” with a must-see lineup that includes a New Jack Swing reunion with Keith Sweat and the original members of Guy ( Teddy Riley ,  Aaron Hall , and  Damion Hall ) and Tank starting on Thursday, March 9  in  Columbia, S.C.  and ending on  Sunday, April 30  in  Tampa, Fla.

Before offering to the general public, “Legacy Tour” tickets go on presale to American Express® Card Members beginning Wednesday,  Dec. 1 4 at  10 am  local time through  Thursday, Dec. 15  at  11:59 pm local time, according to a press release . Tickets will be available to the general public on Friday, Dec. 16 at  10 am  local and range from  $59.50  to  $179.50 . Tickets can be purchased here .

Few recording artists can attest to a superior 40-year career that stands the test of time, but New Edition can.

“Few recording artists can attest to a superior 40-year career that stands the test of time, but New Edition can. When we partnered with NE [New Edition] for “The Culture Tour,” although I knew it would be stellar, their show exceeded my expectations; the guys were nothing short of miraculous. We are excited about partnering with New Edition to further the legacy of the foundation they have already laid,” states BPC CEO Gary Guidry .

New Edition hit the scene in 1983 with their iconic #1 debut album  Candy Girl  disrupting the music industry forty years ago. That same year, the album’s title cut knocked  Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” out of the #1 spot on the Billboard “Hot Black Singles” chart. The group has gone on to win many awards, including BET’s “Lifetime Achievement” awards, and has one of the most highly watched biopics in music history, the three-part BET series: The New Edition Story, which attracted more than 29 million viewers. Comprised of Ronnie DeVoe ,  Bobby Brown ,  Ricky Bell ,  Michael Bivins ,  Ralph Tresvant , and  Johnny Gill , New Edition has remained one of the most influential R&B groups in the world for close to four decades. With a vast catalog, New Edition is ready to perform a host of new hits that weren’t performed in 2022’s “The Culture Tour,” giving their fans a whole new experience to tuck in their memory book.

Keith Sweat entered the charts with his three times platinum debut solo album, Make It Last Forever , in 1987, giving the world its first New Jack Swing Billboard “Hot 100” hit, “I Want Her.” The song, produced by  Teddy Riley  and Sweat, became the most successful R&B song in 1988 on the Billboard “Hot R&B Songs” chart. In 1997, Sweat formed the group  LSG  (Levert, Sweat, and Gill –  Johnny Gill  of New Edition), whose debut album, Levert.Sweat.Gill sold double platinum and produced the hit song “ My Body ,” which became a platinum single, spending seven weeks at #1 on the charts. In addition to touring and making new music, Sweat currently has the #1 nationally syndicated R&B evening radio show called “The Sweat Hotel with  Keith Sweat ,” reaching more than fifty markets across the country.

Teddy Riley  ushered in a new musical genre called New  Jack Swing , which included the formation of his group GUY with  Aaron Hall  and  Damion Hall  in 1987. The group’s first album, the self-titled masterpiece, quickly spawned the Billboard “Hot 100” hit “I Like,” which, along with four other hit singles such as “Groove Me” and “Teddy’s Jam,” helped to propel the debut album to double platinum status. The group disbanded after their second album,  The Future , citing the stresses of the tragic loss of their former manager. However, Teddy Riley  went on to produce for the likes of  Michael Jackson  and Lady Gaga . In addition, he was instrumental in the rise of  Bobby Brown’s  solo career, creating the megahit “My Prerogative,” which  Complex  magazine says is the #1 New Jack Swing song of all time. The “Legacy Tour” will be the first time the group has come together to tour in more than fifteen years.

Rideshare/UberZone

UBER ZONE FAQs:

What is the Uber Zone (Lot E) at the United Center? To increase and streamline the fan experience for guests who take Uber to and from the United Center, the new Uber Zone is located at the corner of Madison Street and Wood Street (Lot E) and will combine the three former Uber locations around the arena. Traffic leading to the three prior Uber pickup locations 1) Zone A, previously located on Wood Street & Washington Blvd. near Lot A, 2) Zone D, previously located on Monroe Street & S. Paulina Street near Lot D and 3) Zone F, previously located on Monroe Street & Seeley Ave. near Lot F will now be directed towards the one new Uber Zone in Lot E.

What is the location of the Uber Zone? The new Uber Zone at the United Center is located on the corner of Madison Street and Wood Street. Fans will enter and exit through the sidewalk entrance located on Madison Street and cars will enter the lot by turning into the Uber Zone from Madison Street. Cars will exit on Warren Blvd.

What are the hours of operation? On event days, the Uber Zone is open two hours prior to games, concerts and events and will remain open up to one hour after each event. On non-event days, the Uber Zone will be closed and Uber rides will be dropped off near the corner of Madison Street and Wood Street outside of the Uber Zone.

What is the pickup process for fans?

• Using the Uber app, fans inside the United Center will call an Uber ride.
• Guests will then head to the new Uber Zone located at the corner of Madison Street and Wood Street in front of the United Center.
• When arriving, fans will show the Uber attendant the lane number their driver is in.
• Fans will be shown the location where their Uber vehicle is located to start their next journey.

What is the dropoff process for fans? When Uber drivers arrive with guests at the United Center, they will be instructed to pull into the Uber Zone from the Madison Street side to drop off fans. Once exiting the vehicle, guests will walk out of the main entrance located on the corner of Madison Street and Wood Street. Guests can cross the street to the United Center and are encouraged to enter through the East Atrium.
