Janet will tonight kick off the Unbreakable World Tour in Vancouver.
The show, at the Rogers Arena, will be the first of a multi leg tour across the US, Canada and Japan.
Janet’s team have been extremely tight lipped about the show with very little leaking ahead of its premiere tonight.
It’s expected that Janet will also perform her new song The Great Forever for the first time in full.
Janet has asked fans via her Twitter page to tweet when they arrive at the venue:
Hey u guys, we open today, and we’re doing a new thing… Let me know when u get to the show! #UnbreakableVancouver

In some behind the scenes photos that Janet’s friend and producer Jimmy Jam tweeted, signs for each department backstage can be seen including a room for two of Janet’s younger dancers’ tutor. It’s the first time that Janet has used children as dancers on one of her tours. Taylor Hatala and Kyndall Harris join an all female troupe of dancers.
