NF has announced nearly 30 dates for his “Hope Tour” in 2024, including a show in Alabama. The rapper and producer from Michigan, born Nathan John Feuerstein, is set to perform on May 29 at the Legacy Arena at the BJCC in downtown Birmingham.

Tickets go on sale Friday, Sept. 29, at 10 a.m. CT via Ticketmaster. Prices are $39.50, $49.50, $69.50, $89.50 and $109.50, plus service charges, according to promoter Red Mountain Entertainment. Pre-registration for tickets is open now via Ticketmaster, and runs through Sunday, Sept. 24, at 10:59 p.m. CT. To register, you must sign in to the Ticketmaster site and fill out a registration form.

“Fans of NF are being asked to register ahead of tickets going on sale,” the Ticketmaster website says. “Registration helps block bots, reduces resale and gets more tickets directly into the hands of fans who want to attend the show.

“Registration does not, however, guarantee that every fan will get access to the sale,” the site continues. “We expect there will be more demand than there are tickets available. A limited number of randomly selected fans will get access to the sale, and others will be put on the waitlist. Getting access to the sale doesn’t guarantee tickets. Tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.” (See more details on registration here.)

Right now, Birmingham is the only Alabama stop listed on NF’s tour, which runs Feb. 2-June 8. The artist has five concerts scheduled in Australia and New Zealand in February, followed by 22 shows in May and June, in cities ranging from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to Sacramento, California.

Aside from Birmingham, other Southern stops include Charlotte, North Carolina (May 18, Spectrum Center), Jacksonville, Florida (May 26, VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena) and Greenville, South Carolina (Bon Secours Wellness Arena).

NF, 32, is no stranger to Birmingham, performing in the past at the Legacy Arena at the BJCC and Iron City. A show scheduled here in October 2021 at Oak Mountain Amphitheatre was canceled due to heavy rains that produced flooding in Pelham.

The artist has five studio albums to his credit as NF, including 2023′s “Hope,” which provided the name for his tour. “Hope” debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart in April, and includes the tracks “Motto,” “Happy,” “Pandemonium,” “Let ‘Em Pray” and “Gone” (featuring Julia Michaels).

Two of NF’s previous records, “The Search” (2019) and “Perception” (2017), topped the Billboard 200 chart upon release, cementing NF’s reputation in Christian and mainstream rap. Although NF leans to the spiritual in his lyrics, some regard him as the successor to Eminem. His hard-edged, staccato vocal style is reminiscent of Eminem and NF has said his music is heavily influenced by the iconic rapper.

NF has 3.4 million followers on Instagram, 1.4 million followers on Facebook and a devoted audience on streaming platforms. He has earned two GMA Dove Awards: Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year for 2016′s “Therapy Sesson” and Rap/Hip Hop Recorded Song of the Year for “Oh Lord.”
