Ticket on-sale information for the general public wasn't available at press time, but members of Carey's official fan club will have access to tickets via presales that roll out this week. More information is available at the singer's website.

Dubbed "The Adventures of Mimi: The Voice, the Hits, the Tour," Carey's upcoming roadtrip will feature songs culled from throughout her 15-year career, including "many performed for the first time ever," according to a press release.

Released in April of last year, "The Emancipation of Mimi" marks Carey's return to the top of the pop-diva heap after seeing her career arc falter during the several years leading up to the set's release.

After a decade of racking up multi-platinum albums with Columbia Records--including Diamond awards for 1993's "Music Box" and 1995's "Daydream," signifying US shipment of 10 million copies each--Carey split with the label following 1999's "Rainbow" and cut a four-album deal with Virgin Records worth a reported $80 million. Her first and only album for the label was 2001's "Glitter." Originally due out that summer, the disc's release was pushed back to Sept. 11, 2001 after Carey checked herself into a hospital in July, where she was treated for an emotional and physical breakdown.

"Glitter," the soundtrack to a poorly received Carey-starring flick of the same name, was a relative commercial failure for the singer, and Virgin subsequently cut ties with her after paying her $49 million.

"Charmbracelet," Carey's first album for Island Records, followed in 2002, and didn't fare much better than its successor. A supporting tour originally scheduled to play arenas was scaled back to a theater/amphitheater run.

That all changed with "The Emancipation of Mimi," which debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 and was the top-selling album in the United States last year. The multi-platinum set--which spawned the No. 1 hits "We Belong Together" and "Don't Forget About Us"--is RIAA certified for shipping 6 million copies in the US.

"The Emancipation of Mimi" earned Carey Grammy nominations in eight categories, of which she scored trophies for three: Best Contemporary R&B Album, as well as Best R&B Song and Best R&B Vocal Performance for "We Belong Together." The three victories were her first since her 1990 Grammys for Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance.

Carey wrote and co-produced every song on the album, which features guest appearances from Snoop Dogg, Nelly and Twista, as well as production help from The Neptunes, Kanye West and Jermaine Dupri.
