JoJo concert chronology

The Agápē Tour was the debut headlining concert tour by American singer-songwriter JoJo. It was launched in support of her second mixtape Agápē (2013).[1] The tour visited just six cities; it was expected to be expanded to the East Coast of the USA and to Canada, but this did not eventuate.

Background

In an interview with TheYoungFolks.com on January 4, 2013, JoJo expressed plans to go on a nationwide tour hitting the East Coast, Canada and other cities in the USA. She met with her agency in January to sort out a specific route for the tour.[2] On August 28, 2013 JoJo announced the first five West Coast tour dates entitled The "Agape Tour" via her official Twitter page with special guest Leah Labelle as the opening act. Tickets went on sale the same day.[3][4]
