Maxwell and Mary J. Blige will bring their co-headlining King + Queen of Hearts World Tour to New Orleans’ Smoothie King Center on Thursday, December 1.

Ro James will open the night.

The New Orleans stop will mark Maxwell’s third 2016 appearance in the Crescent City, as the R&B superstar performed at both Jazz Fest and Essence Fest earlier this year. Blige last took the stage in New Orleans for Essence Fest 2015.

The 24-date United States run will kick off on November 5, just a few weeks after the pair wrap up a jaunt through Europe. Maxwell will be on the road in support of his new album blackSUMMERS’night (online ticket-buyers will get a free download of the record). Blige’s last studio effort, The London Sessions, was released in 2014.

Tickets for the New Orleans show will go on sale this Friday, September 9 at 10am. A portion of the proceeds from each ticket sale will go to Artists for Peace and Justice, a nonprofit that funds programs in education, healthcare and dignity in Haiti.
