Jhené Aiko, Xscape + SWV announce Little Caesars Arena shows
Progressive soul artist Jhené Aiko will play Little Caesars Arena on June 19, part of her just-announced Magic Hour Tour.
Detroit will be the tour's opening night, following Aiko's pair of appearances at California's Coachella festival. She'll be joined on the 26-arena run by support acts Coi Leray, Tink, UMI and Kiana Lede.
Aiko last played Detroit in the summer of 2022, when the then-expectant mom was part of a Mo Pop Festival bill that included her beau, Detroit rapper Big Sean. Their son was born that November.
Tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday through Ticketmaster.
Aiko's Magic Hour Tour was initially scheduled for 2020 but was canceled that year amid the COVID-19 pandemic. This year's outing is her first national headlining tour since 2018.
Aiko's show date was one of two big LCA announcements Tuesday: Also unveiled was the Queens of R&B Tour featuring coheadliners Xscape and SWV, which will hit the Detroit arena on Aug. 9. The '90s-themed show will include openers Mya, Total and 702.
Tickets for the Xscape-SWV concert will go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday through Ticketmaster. A pre-sale for Citi cardholders will begin Tuesday.
