text: # I Am JoJo Tour
  
  The I Am JoJo Tour was the third headlining & first world concert tour by American singer-songwriter JoJo. It was launched in support of her upcoming yet to be titled third studio album & its III., which included the album's first 3 singles. The first leg of the "I Am JoJo" tour was announced on October 5, 2015 and the first dates were revealed the same day. It kicked off on November 2, 2015 in Minneapolis. The tour traveled to theaters and clubs across the country, with stops in New York, Chicago, St. Louis, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston, and Toronto before wrapping the first leg in the U.S. on December 20, 2015 in New Orleans. The first leg of the tour will visit just 24 cities and is currently being expanded to more cities in the US and to Canada. Its first set of international European dates were announced on December 15, 2015 bringing a total of 31 shows so far; more international dates are yet to be announced. Preparations for the shows began a month prior to the beginning of the tour. After being away for so long JoJo wanted the tour to be more intimate and be "all about connecting".
  
  The set list for the concerts included songs from JoJo's first two studio albums, her two mixtapes as well as few covers of other artists. The central theme of the tour was to take audiences down memory lane by performing her repertoire in chronological order beginning with her 2004 self titled debut album and everything else in between right up until her most current release of the III. Majority of the shows included VIP meet & greet packages that all took place before the show which included a private acoustic performance from JoJo, where she would perform a few rehearsed songs for the crowd as well as snippets of requested songs from the crowd which included most of the leaked songs that surfaced online throughout 2009 until 2014.
  
  ## Background
  
  In an interview with Billboard.com at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards on August 30, 2015, JoJo expressed plans to go on a nationwide tour before heading overseas in 2016 for further promotion. On October 5, 2015 JoJo announced her second major nationwide tour entitled The "I Am JoJo Tour" via her official Twitter page. The tour will visit 23 cities all across North America beginning on November 2 at Minneapolis’ Triple Rock Social Club and runs through the end of the year, wrapping up on JoJo's 25th Birthday on December 20 at the Hi Ho Lounge in New Orleans., making it her widest spread tour to date. The tour will visit smaller more intimate venues such as theaters & nightclubs as a way to reconnect with fans after so long. During an interview with AXS JoJo discussed what plans she had for the tour stating "For this tour, I wanted to take a journey back to the beginning, back to my first album where ‘Leave (Get Out)’ came from. I wanted to visit the second album, The High Road, which had 'Too Little Too Late.' And, I wanted to cover the mixtapes that I released while I was in that period of limbo. I'll be doing everything, right up to the tringle and I'll even do a couple of new songs that will be on the upcoming album". On October 26, 2015 JoJo officially announced that Aaron Camper would be serving as the opening act for the duration of the tour beginning on November 3, 2015 show.
