Background and production

In January 2015, New Kids on the Block appeared on Good Morning America to announce the tour. [1] It has been hinted the band might collaborate with TLC and Nelly each other while out on the road. For the show's production there will be "new and top notched production elements", and a 360 degree stage. [2]

TLC is excited about the tour and said, "We are thrilled to be able to join pop icons NKOTB and Nelly on tour. We are equally excited to back on the road connecting with our fans in such huge arenas."[2]
