Janet Jackson announces huge Manchester gig at Co-op Live

Janet Jackson is the latest act to be announced to play the enormous new Co-op Live arena in Manchester.

The iconic singer has announced a date here on the European leg of her huge Together Again tour.

It’s the first time the five-time Grammy-award-winning singer has performed in the UK since her Glastonbury Festival slot back in 2019.

Janet Jackson’s Together Again tour has sold out across North America, and now it’s heading across to Europe including an autumn gig here in Manchester.

The tour celebrates her 50th anniversary in entertainment, and marks 35 years of her best-selling album Rhythm Nation.

She’s also one of the best-selling artists of all time, selling more than 180 million records worldwide.

The Together Again Tour has already become the highest-selling tour of Janet Jackson’s career, spanning 35 dates across the US – and now she’s heading to Manchester.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee is set to play at the city’s new Co-op Live Arena, which is meant to officially open its doors this week (a little later than planned…)

Tickets will go on sale at 9am on Friday 3 May, with presale available to Mastercard cardholders from Tuesday 30 April at 9am.
