Janet Jackson, New Edition performing Derby night concert at Lynn Family Stadium

Derby Day in Louisville just got even bigger. Janet Jackson — Ms. Jackson if you’re nasty — and New Edition will perform at Lynn Family Stadium on Saturday, May 7 following the Run for the Roses at Churchill Downs.

The event, called the 85° West Music Festival, will be the first-ever concert at Lynn Family Stadium, home of Louisville City FC and Racing Louisville FC. According to WLKY, Jackson will play her greatest hits and all six original members of New Edition — Bobby Brown, Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant, Michael Bivins, Ronnie Devoe, and Ricky Bell — will perform.
