Author JD Diva

Get your summer concerts on the calendar because they are coming in hot! If you’re a 90’s girl group fan, get ready for the Queens of R&B coming to Charlotte.

“The Queens of R&B Tour” will be at the PNC Music Pavilion on July 17.  Popular 90’s girl groups like Xscape and SWV are co-headlining the tour. The two groups will be joined by Mya, 702, and Total. Live Nation recently made the announcement in a press release.

It’s a 30-city tour that comes at a time when women are being honored and celebrated during Women’s History Month. One of the tour’s presenters is Monami Entertainment. CEO, Monica Scott-Young who has executive produced a number of the ‘Love And Hip-Hop’ reality TV show franchises, says the tour speaks to the power of women and their ability to overcome adversity and still triumph.

She goes on to say when you look at artists like 702, Total, Mýa, SWV, and Xscape they have all weathered storms and are still here and better for it!

This year so many of our favorite artists will be coming through the Queen City and making pit stops at some of our favorite venues. But, sometimes things happen and people don’t always remember the venue rules. We know, bag policies, food policies, times, etc. can really be a lot to remember and deal with.

So, I decided to help everyone out ahead of this concert season. Here is a list of some of the top venues in Charlotte and all of the things you need to know before going to a concert in their space. It’s so fun to see some of your favorite artists live in concert performing your favorite songs. But, make sure you are aware of all of the rules beforehand.
