The Black Promoters Collective is pleased to announce the arrival of the New Edition Way Tour, an event that’s not just redefining the concert experience in 2026 but rewriting the rules of live entertainment. With back-to-back sold-out nights, these shows have shattered expectations. Headliner New Edition with Boyz II Men, and Toni Braxton are delivering the definitive R&B event of the year.
The second the lights dim, the arena erupts into a multi-sensory, high-octane spectacle that fuses breathtaking theatrical storytelling with relentless musical energy. The centerpiece: a newly created showtime elevated single, “We Going Out Tonight,” uniting all three legendary acts in one unforgettable moment. Even more powerful is the diversity pouring from the stands — fans of every background, every generation, every walk of life, all coming together for a celebration of R&B’s finest.
New Edition delivered pure, unmatched energy, performing hit songs that defy time and continue to ignite their fanbase. Their choreography remains second to none, drawing not only screams from the crowd but fans in the stands breaking into the iconic dance moves straight out of the classic music videos. Spanning the 80s, 90s, and 2000s, New Edition delivered every era with precision, passion, and showmanship that no other act on the planet can match.
The opening night in Oakland saw California Congresswoman Lateefah Simon, present New Edition with a Certificates of Congressional Recognition, one of the greatest honors that Congress bestows.
The second night in Las Vegas brought an electric surprise — the reveal of Boyz II Men’s fourth founding member Michael McCary, who was clearly emotional, sharing the stage while sending the arena into a frenzy. The moment quickly went viral on social media. Throughout the night, Boyz II Men delivered a masterclass in vocal harmony, performing in the round in a 360-degree celebration that made every seat feel like the best seat in the house.
Toni Braxton made an illustrious grand entrance via riser, electrifying the crowd from the moment she appeared. From her flawless vocal delivery on hits like “Breathe Again” and “Just Be a Man About It” to every detail of her visual presentation, Braxton commanded the stage. Her stunning costume changes — from shimmery gowns to angelic regalia — punctuated the evening, keeping the spectacle as dynamic as the music itself. Adding to the night’s surprises, Braxton brought out social media influencer and journalist Kayla Nicole for a special cameo during the Los Angeles stop — a full-circle moment that came months after Nicole went viral for recreating a scene from Braxton’s Grammy Award-winning “He Wasn’t Man Enough” music video for Halloween, sending the crowd into a frenzy.
In addition to the Boyz II Men surprise, the third night included a show-stopping appearance by B2K, who performed “Bump, Bump, Bump,” receiving an electric reception by fans who jumped out of their seats in Los Angeles. The group recently went viral after paying homage to headliner New Edition at a Grammy event and will embark on a reunion tour this Spring brought to you by Black Promoters Collective.
