(AllHipHop News) Brooklyn’s new Barclays Center is set to open on September 28 with a high-profile Jay-Z concert, and the center has announced two additional performance dates on September 29 and 30 for the multi-platinum selling, Grammy Award-winning rapper and mogul.

“Jay-Z is Brooklyn and is the definitive artist to open Barclays Center,” said Barclays Center CEO Brett Yormark. “We are thrilled that such an iconic world-class entertainer, not to mention a Brooklynite, will take the borough’s biggest stage on three consecutive nights for what will surely be a historic experience for all fans.”

Barclays announced in mid-June that Jay-Z, who is also a minority investor of the Brooklyn Nets, will serve as Director of the Brooklyn Arena Firm.

Tickets for all three concerts, which are being produced by LiveNation, will officially go on sale to the general public this Friday (July 13) at 10 a.m. It is being reported that over 7,000 tickets will be available for under $30.

Pre-sale tickets will be available to American Express card members beginning on Wednesday (July 11) from 10 am until 10 pm.
