The city of New Orleans has announced that this day — June 11, 2024 — is officially "Back That Azz Up" Day in celebration of hip-hop legend Juvenile unveiling his plans for a North American tour celebrating the song's 25th anniversary. The tour will bring him to Canada for a few shows in Vancouver, Edmonton, Montreal and Toronto later this year.
"I am beyond excited to celebrate 25 years of 'Back That Azz Up' with my fans," Juvenile said in a statement. "This song has been a huge part of my musical journey, and it's amazing to see it still resonate with people today. I can't wait for the moment each night of the tour when the song drops."
The tour is bookended by hometown gigs, kicking off on July 7 and wrapping back in NOLA on December 31. In between, Juvenile will traverse predominantly US cities, with the exception of a few stops in Canada to play Vancouver's Commodore Ballroom (September 24), Edmonton's Midway Music Hall (September 25), Montreal's Beanfield Theatre (December 10) and Toronto's Danforth Music Hall (December 11).
Tickets go on sale to the general public this Friday (June 14) following various presales, which get underway for select shows today at 11 a.m. local time. See the full itinerary below.
