The summer of 2022 is shaping up to be one of the biggest in recent memory when it comes to the amount of, and the quality of live concerts being offered, both here in Evansville and especially in and around Indianapolis. Without a doubt, one of THE biggest tours of the summer has got to be the 2022 Mixtape Tour (prove me wrong). If you grew up in the 80s and 90s, and hearing about this tour doesn't get your blood pumping, then you might need to seek professional help.

Who Is on the 2022 Mixtape Tour?

The tour is headlined by none other than boy band juggernauts, New Kids on the Block. That announcement alone would be pretty epic, but the news gets even more epic-er. Joining NKOTB on the road will be Salt-N-Pepa, En Vogue, and Rick Astley. Are you kidding me?! All of these iconic acts were headlining their own shows back in the day - and now they are together on the same show! The tour is making several stops around the region, including a show in Indy, for which we just happen to have tickets. Keep reading to find out how to win some.

The Mixtape Tour is stopping in Indianapolis on Thursday, May 12, 2022, for a show at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Tickets are on sale now, online at LiveNation.com or at any Ticketmaster location.

New Kids on the Block founder and resident bad boy, Donnie Wahlberg, had this to say about the upcoming tour...

We had a blast out on the first MixTape Tour in 2019, and can't wait to take it to another level with our fans on the MixTape Tour 2022. Just like a mixtape, these shows are going to take audiences through all the emotions. To be able to have Salt-N-Pepa come back and now also have the iconic and legendary Rick Astley & En Vogue join the tour...we could not be more excited. Let's GO!

How to Win MixTape Tour Tickets

We want to give these tickets to legit NKOTB fans, and so we're going to see how well you know all five 'Kids' - or at least their voices. Listen each weekday at 7am for the Most Totally Awesome Radion Contest. We will ask you to call in (812-421-1117) and listen to part of a NKOTB song, and we'll ask you to tell us which member is singing. If you can do that, you'll score a pair of tickets and be on your way to Naptown this May!
