After conquering Las Vegas, Usher has taken his show on the road, and fans can still snag tickets to see him live. A new round of tickets for the R&B star’s Past Present Future Tour went on sale via Ticketmaster on Friday (Nov. 1).
The two additional dates were added for Dec. 5-6 at Barclays Arena in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Usher launched his tour Aug. 20 in Washington D.C. and stops in Boston, Philadelphia, Oakland, Calif., Denver, Detroit, Los Angeles, Miami and his hometown of Atlanta. The tour was initially extended due to “overwhelming demand,” Usher revealed on X in February.
The “Good Good” singer added extra shows to most of the cities on the tour, including Washington D.C., Detroit, Chicago, Baltimore, Boston, Brooklyn, Miami, Los Angeles, St. Louis, Chicago, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Charlotte, N.C.
Since then, more dates have been added to the schedule including a sixth show in Atlanta and a third show added to Houston. However, shows in Atlanta and Miami had to be rescheduled after Usher suffered a neck injury over the summer. The rescheduled shows will take place in December.
A select number of tickets are currently available on resale sites such as Vivid Seats, StubHub, SeatGeek and Viagogo.

How to Get Tickets on StubHub
StubHub is a great resource for last-minute, cheap tickets — but the key to getting the best deal is striking at the right time. In this case, it’s better to secure your tickets as soon as possible as ticket demand spiked following Usher’s Super Bowl halftime show.
Though you might find a few tickets below $50 at StubHub, most of the cheaper tickets start in the $200-$400 range.
Which tickets are the most expensive? Certain cities will cost you more than others. For example, Usher’s shows in Atlanta are some of fastest-selling tickets at StubHub and more expensive than some of the other cities on the tour. Right now, tickets for opening night in Atlanta start at $126 for general admission to over $1,200 for VIP.
Usher is the only artist this year to surpass Taylor Swift as the most-searched artist on StubHub, according to the ticketing site.
Super Bowl LVIII averaged 123.4 million people making Usher’s halftime show one of the most-watched in history.
After his Super Bowl halftime performance, StubHub saw an increase of five times the usual daily searches for Usher. On the Monday after his halftime performance, Usher was the most searched artist on StubHub officially passing Swift who was the most searched artist on StubHub every day of 2024, prior to Feb. 12.
How to Get Tickets on SeatGeek
SeatGeek is serving up some of the cheapest ticket prices that we’ve seen for Usher’s tour. Prices range from $33 to more than $1,000 for general admission and VIP tickets in select cities.
Although limited in supply, TicketNetwork and GameTime have reasonably-priced Usher tickets starting below $50 for select dates (use code Billboard150 to save $150 off $300 and Billboard300 to save $300 off $1,000 at TicketNetwork). No matter how you score tickets, you’ll probably end up spending at least $200-$300 for a good view of the stage, and even more for VIP.
Usher forthcoming tour has become one of the biggest tours of the year, and the largest of his career. “The success of tour began several years ago when Usher launched his residency in Vegas, which re-established his greatness,” Live Nation Global Touring chairman Arthur Fogel said in an interview with Billboard in February. “Now he is building off that success with his current tour and the presales prove there is unprecedented demand to see him perform live.”
The father of four, who wed longtime girlfriend Jennifer Goicoechea after his Super Bowl performance, has a busy performance schedule ahead. The Grammy winner will launch the European leg of his Past Present Future Tour in 2025.
