Which summer tour below are you most excited for? Have you gotten tickets for any of these shows yet? Tweet us @OKMagazine!
1. Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z
If you haven't gotten your tickets for the Legends of the Summer Tour featuring JT and JZ, forget it. They're either sold out or a million dollars. But from late July until August, you can bet that this show is basically all anyone's ever going to be talking about. #FOMO
2. Justin Bieber with Cody Simpson, Hot Chelle Rae and Ariana Grande
JB's been overseas on his Believe tour for the past few months, but as of June 22 he's officially back in the US. And he's bringing his famous friends with him! Cody and Hot Chelle Rae will open up select shows for Bieber from now until August with Ariana stepping in for the final few concerts at the end of the summer.
3. NKOTB with 98 Degrees and Boys II Men
Having all three of these huge bands from your teen years together on-stage and all in one place might make your head (slash groins) explode, but The Package Tour is totally worth that pain. The guys have been on the road since May, wrapping up the shows in early August.
4. Kesha and Pitbull
Technically these two party animals are almost done with their tour (it wraps up June 28 in Tampa, FL), but we can imagine that their live show is a mix of latino pelvic thrusts and gold glitter, which are basically the ingredients for the greatest summer concert in history.
5. fun. with Tegan & Sara
fun. and their special guests Tegan & Sara begin their trek across the country in July, wrapping up the Most Nights Summer Tour in late September. Think any 'Glee' stars will join them on-stage considering both bands have been featured on the show? #Wishfulthinking

8. Kelly Clarkson and Maroon 5
Where are we going to be from August 1-October 5? Stalking Adam Levine's tour bus, that's where. Maroon 5 is touring America with Kelly Clarkson on the Honda Civic Tour at the tail end of the summer. We're in.
