New Kids on the Block Mixtape Tour to kick off in 2019
New Kids on the Block are back, again, announcing a tour next year with other '80's stars Debbie Gibson, Tiffany, and more.

The '80s are coming to a stadium near you next year.

Donnie Wahlberg and his New Kids on the Block are marking the 30th anniversary of the "Hangin' Tough" album by announcing the NKOTB Mixtape Tour, kicking off in May of 2019. Special guests will include Salt 'n' Pepa, Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, and Naughty by Nature.

NKOTB also marked the Hangin' Tough anniversary with a show at the Apollo Theater Sunday.

"For those of you that were there - you know we love you! For those of you that were there in spirit - we of course held all of our Blockheads close to our hearts," they wrote on their website.

The band also announced they had returned to the studio, releasing their first new song "80s Baby" on the Internet Monday.

For diehard Blockheads, NKOTB will host their own Carnival cruise October 18-22, leaving from Miami and traveling to Half Moon Cay and Nassau, with theme nights like Valentine (Girls) Ball and GPS Love Fest.

New Kids on the Block shot to fame in 1988 with the release of their second album "Hangin' Tough," which included the hits "You Got (The Right Stuff)," "I'll Be Loving You," and "Please Don't Go Girl."

NKOTB disbanded in 1994 but reunited 13 years later, releasing new music and occasionally touring with other bands, including The Backstreet Boys.
