New Kids on the Block 2015 Tour Dates Announced with TLC and Nelly, See Full 'The Main Event' Tour Schedule Here

The New Kids on the Block officially announced the 2015 'The Main Event' Tour earlier this month and it includes some nostalgic, heavy-hitting special guests including TLC and Nelly. Donnie Wahlberg said the tour will be the "event of the year."

The "The Main Event" tour kicks off on Friday, May 1, 2015, in Las Vegas with stops across the country, ending in Buffalo, N.Y., in July. Tickets for the tour go on sale Jan. 31. The full schedule has now been released, which you can check out below. 

"We are bringing with us the biggest girl group in the history of music-TLC," Wahlberg explained. "This is such a great bill and we have so many hit records and such huge followings that we just want to make it the party of the year. That's why we call it 'The Main Event.' It's going to be the event of the year." The stage being used for the tour is "the most elaborate thing" New Kids on the Block has ever used "in the history of [their] band," Wahlberg added.

"We've built bar seats around the stage so our fans can literally sit right on the stage and converse with us and we can share their snacks and drinks if we want to," he explained. "It's going to be incredible. It's got lifts and pop ups and all types of amazing things."
