Nelly at Mohegan Sun Arena

Hailing from Austin, Nelly started his journey to stardom in ​​1993 as a member of the Midwest hip hop group St. Lunatics. In 1999, the megastar signed to Universal Records, and hasn’t looked back since!

The Texas native knows how to put on an epic performance, he even had the luxury to perform as a special guest at the Super Bowl XXXV halftime show. Nelly’s breakthrough was in 2002, when he dropped his second album, Nellyville, and it was pure fire!! The LP debuted at the coveted number 1 spot on the Billboard's Top 200 Music Albums charts, while its lead single "Hot in Herre" is a smash hit in every corner of the globe.

And now, it’s your unique chance to see this industry powerhouse live and up close. His tracks are packed with hooks that will have everyone singing along and his laid-back swagger promises an effortless cool concert experience.

Over the past three decades, Nelly has carved up a sound that rises from influences like Southern hip-hop duo OutKast, pioneer LL Cool J, and legendary group Run-D.M.C. Also citing country music and Michael Jackson as inspiration, this legend has a totally unique style that blends hip-hop, R&B, country, and pop. AMAZING!

Picture this: you and your closest friends dancing the night away to chart-topper "Dilemma," Grammy-winning single "Hot in Herre," and epic collabs like "Shake Ya Tailfeather". Now, that’s a night to remember!!
