Janet Jackson announces dates for 2023 ‘Together Again’ tour

Janet Jackson is ready to hit the road again.

The musical icon announced dates for her “Together Again” tour next year — her first since 2019.

“You guys, I miss you so much, I am so excited to see you,” she gushed in an Instagram video on Monday about the news.

“You guys have no idea, I’ve missed you so much, so much, and I can’t wait to be with you. I’m so excited.”

The tour will hit 33 cities — including Toronto, Atlantic City, Detroit and Atlanta — across North America beginning on April 14 in Hollywood, Florida.

Rapper Ludacris will be joining her as her opening act and tickets for the show will go on sale starting Dec. 16.

The tour is named after a song from her 1997 album “The Velvet Rope.”

“The Velvet Rope,” involved themes such same-sex relationships, BDSM, domestic violence and family trauma.

“I don’t think [my fans] were expecting it at all because it was completely different from the stuff I had done in the past,” she told the New Zealand Herald of the album this past October. “I think it did catch them truly off guard, but … it’s something that I really needed to do for me.”

The LP was a commercial and critical success back in the 1990s, debuting at No. 1 in the US and sold over 4 million copies worldwide.

The Grammy winner also recently paid tribute to her 1986 “Control” album cover at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony last month.

Jackson channeled her retro look by rocking an all-black Christian Siriano outfit. The “Poetic Justice” actress sported a high-collared black-buttoned jacket and matching wide-leg pants. She even wore a wild and curly hairdo similar to her cover.

Siriano, 37, even called Jackson his “muse” earlier this year, telling Page Six: “Janet is the most elegant, chic… these new celebs — don’t even start with me — [Janet] is so lovely, thanking me every day. I’m like, ‘You are Janet Jackson. I will make you anything.’

“She’s so lovely and amazing — to post on Instagram and tag me and support me was just so nice. I dress a lot of people and they don’t always do that,” the “Project Runway” alum added.
