WHY NOT NAIJA...THE KING'S MEN TOUR FEATURING KIRK FRANKLIN, MARVIN SAPP, DONNIE MCCLURKIN AND ISRAEL HOUGHTON

Why not Nigeria?
Today, Live Nation the World’s leading largest producer of live concerts producing more than 20,000 shows annually for more than 2,000 artists globally, announced that they will be bringing four of the most successful gospel artists of all time - Kirk Franklin, Marvin Sapp, Donnie McClurkin and Israel Houghton, collectively known as "The King's Men" - to the same stage for the very first time with a fall tour.

"The opportunity to partner with Live Nation is a GREAT honor and responsibility," said Franlin in a statement. "The genre of gospel music having this kind of massive marketing support is monumental, and the talent on this tour makes it a must-see event! I'm very proud of this relationship and I expect it to be a new groundbreaking platform for inspirational entertainment." sourced from Billboard magazine


Tickets will be available through Live Nation at ticketmaster.com beginning Friday, May 11, while Citi card members have access to a presale beginning Tuesday, May 8. 

"In the Gospel world, this is like Springsteen, McCartney, Prince and Elton hitting the road together," said Kevin Morrow, Senior Vice President of Touring at Live Nation, in a statement. "It's going to be a once in a lifetime event for music fans."
