Louisville-native and hip hop star Jack Harlow just announced his Kentucky-exclusive tour “No Place Like Home,” and NKU’s Truist Arena will host one of its six stops on Nov. 26. 

The 25-year-old rapper ascended to the upper echelons of rap stardom in 2020 with his hit “What’s Poppin.” He has since released three studio albums, received six Grammy nominations and dabbled in the acting space as a lead role in 2023’s White Men Can’t Jump reboot.

A crux of Harlow’s impressive young career is his loyalty to his native state, building an ethos through his pattern of referencing Kentucky in his songs and making a tradition out of playing shows in the state. 

His recently announced tour will be his third annual “No Place Like Home” tour, including stops across Kentucky in Owensboro, Pikeville, Covington, Murray, Bowling Green and Lexington. 

How to get tickets

Registration to have a chance at securing presale tickets is available until Aug. 20 at 11:59 p.m., according to TicketMaster

Since demand for tickets is expected to exceed supply, purchase eligibility will be granted at random to fans who registered for presale. After presale registration expires, randomly selected fans will receive a code that permits them access to purchase tickets on presale. Those not selected will be placed on a waitlist and may receive a code if tickets go unclaimed. 

Jack Harlow is using a registration process to give his fans a better chance at buying tickets to his shows. While it doesn’t guarantee that all who register will get tickets, it does significantly reduce the number of professional resellers who buy tickets to sell for profit,” said the TicketMaster website.

Tickets go on sale to the general public on TicketMaster on Friday, Aug. 25 at 10 a.m
