What the original ticket announcement said
At the time, the promoter scheduled presales to begin January 17, 2024, at 10 a.m. and general ticket sales to begin January 19 at 10 a.m. ABC News specified that both times were local. These were the original 2024 sale windows, not current ticket-sale dates.
The promoter also described optional VIP packages that could include premium tickets, a meet and greet and photo opportunity with Jackson, a pre-show lounge, and a collectible ticket. The listed items were possible package inclusions, not a guarantee that every VIP package contained all of them. No current ticket prices or availability are established by the announcement.
Rank #2
- The Velvet Rope, Janet Jackson's sixth studio album, was released in 1997 and has sold over 8 million copies worldwide
How the tour was presented
The announcement placed the 2024 dates in the context of Jackson’s career and album milestones. It also characterized the 2023 Together Again Tour run as her highest-selling tour, with 36 sold-out shows. That sales description and figure were claims made by the promoter in January 2024; the cited announcement did not provide an independent audit.
For album-history context, Control is one of Jackson’s landmark albums. It was not identified as tour merchandise in the announcement.
