This morning, the Riverside Theater announced that R&B star and "Trapped in the Closet" maestro R. Kelly will bring his first ever Christmas tour to Milwaukee on Sunday, Dec. 11.

Milwaukee is just one of seven lucky cities – including Chicago, Atlanta, Brooklyn, Detroit, Nashville and Minneapolis – currently scheduled to receive a holiday visit from the three-time Grammy winner's tour (though additional tour dates are expected in the future).

The holiday tour arrives in correlation with R. Kelly's first ever Christmas album, "12 Nights of Christmas," a collection of soulful holiday-themed love songs and traditional favorites released today. 

Tickets for the special holiday show will go on sale beginning Friday, Oct. 28 at noon. Reserved seating tickets will cost a range including $58, $78, $98 and $128. For more information, visit The Pabst/Riverside website
