Ms. Jackson announced her upcoming tour, which will feature special guest Lucacris, during an Instagram Live Monday morning.
"We will be together again, very soon," the Grammy award-winning songstress said on the live broadcast. "I miss you guys so much and I can't wait to see you."

The "Together Again" tour makes over 30 stops across the U.S., including a show on May 19 in Mansfield, Massachusetts. The show's name comes from Jackson's 1997 hit of the same title, which came off her critically-acclaimed album, "The Velvet Rope."
Jackson's last proper tour was the multi-leg State of the World Tour, which was followed by a brief Las Vegas residency and then a tour commemorating 30 years of "Rhythm Nation 1814."
Jackson had teased an upcoming album and tour called "Black Diamond" in February 2020, but neither came to fruition amid the COVID-19 pandemic and Jackson raising her now five-year-old son.
The pop star promised fans that they'll be able to enjoy new music when she hits the road in 2023.
