Missy Elliott Has Announced Her First-Ever North American Tour

Missy Elliott will embark on her first-ever headline tour this summer, enlisting Ciara, Busta Rhymes, and Timbaland for an opening slate of two dozen dates across North America. Dubbed Out of This World—The Missy Elliott Experience, the tour kicks off on July 4 in Vancouver and wraps August 22 in Rosemont, Illinois. Check out the dates below, and find the announcement video on Instagram.

“This is an amazing time in my life as I am experiencing so many milestone ‘firsts,'” Missy Elliott stated in a press statement. I’m embarking on my FIRST headline tour and am the FIRST female hip-hop artist to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Forever, my fans have been requesting that I go on tour, but I wanted to hold off until I felt like it was the appropriate moment because I knew that if I was going to do this, it had to be large and involve my family! Prepare to go on an incredible journey with me, Busta Rhymes, Ciara, and Timbaland! We are eager to tell the fans about this experience!
