After a year filled with sold-out arenas, memorable festivals, and groundbreaking tours, the Black Promoters Collective (BPC) has secured multiple nominations at the 2026 Pollstar Awards. These nominations highlight BPC’s pivotal role in shaping the global live entertainment landscape.
In 2025, BPC’s tours captivated audiences across generations. The Millennium Tour 2025, headlined by Trey Songz, Omarion, and Bow Wow, earned a nomination for Hip-Hop Tour of the Year.
This nostalgic celebration of early-2000s hip-hop and R&B not only brought fans together but also showed how nostalgia can evolve culture. The tour landed at No. 8 on Billboard’s Top 10 Highest-Grossing R&B Tours of the Year, cementing its success with both fans and critics.
Two R&B Tours of the Year nominations also went to BPC productions. The Boy Is Mine Tour, featuring Brandy & Monica, took fans on an emotional journey and captured the essence of R&B nostalgia.
As one of the most significant R&B tours of the decade, it received praise for its vocal excellence and emotional depth. Its sold-out shows earned it accolades from major outlets like Variety and Essence and helped solidify it as one of the year’s defining live experiences.
BPC also earned another R&B Tour of the Year nomination for The Queens! 4 Legends. 1 Stage., which united four iconic artists—Gladys Knight, Chaka Khan, Patti LaBelle, and Stephanie Mills—for a historic tour that celebrated their legacy and musical brilliance.
The tour’s commercial success matched its cultural impact, with Billboard listing it among the Top 10 Highest-Grossing R&B Tours of 2025.
BPC’s achievements continue into 2026 with the New Edition Way Tour, which has already generated significant excitement and early ticket sales. Fans are eagerly awaiting the upcoming third leg of The Queens! 4 Legends. 1 Stage. Tour, kicking off February 12, 2026.
Looking ahead, BPC’s 2026 calendar includes other highly anticipated tours and festivals, including the Boys 4 Life Tour featuring B2K & Bow Wow, the New Edition Way Tour with Boyz II Men and Toni Braxton, and signature festival events such as the Jazz in the Gardens Music Festival and Hampton Jazz & Music Festival.
Additionally, shows like DJ Cassidy’s Pass The Mic Live! and Big Boogie’s Pain on Paper Tour will continue to draw crowds and generate excitement.
