Elton John concert chronology

Farewell Yellow Brick Road is an ongoing tour by British musician Elton John that began in Allentown, Pennsylvania on 8 September 2018. It is intended to be John's final tour and will consist of more than 300 concerts worldwide.[1] By the end of the first leg of the tour on 18 March 2019, it had grossed over $125 million[2] and won a Billboard Music Award in the category Top Rock Tour.[3] The tour's name and its poster reference John's 1973 album Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. According to Pollstar, the tour has grossed $358.6 million across 179 shows.[4]

Background[]

On 24 January 2018, it was announced that Elton John would be retiring from touring and would soon embark on a three-year tour. The first concert was announced to take place at the PPL Center in Allentown, Pennsylvania on 8 September 2018 followed by an extensive tour of the United States and Canada before moving on to Europe. John cited spending time with his children as the reason for his retirement. Tickets went on sale on 24 February and within hours tickets for the first 60 shows were sold out.[5]

Further North American tours dates were announced on 26 September 2018. John's official website stated: "Salt Lake City, Tacoma, Memphis, Charlotte and Western Canada as well as return dates in Toronto, Philadelphia, Nashville, Cleveland and more".[6] Thirteen days later concerts were revealed for Lille, Paris, Bordeaux and Nîmes, taking place in Summer 2019.[7] An additional show taking place at Paris's AccorHotels Arena in October 2020 was also released.[citation needed]

A Winter 2020 tour taking place in the United Kingdom and Ireland was announced on 8 November 2018. The original announcement detailed sixteen concerts taking place across England, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland. It was later postponed to 2021, along with the rest of the second European leg, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.[8][9][10] The third North American leg was postponed to 2022, for the same reason, with two shows in Auckland, New Zealand taking place in January 2023, because of the pandemic and John leaving mid-show on the first Auckland concert, on 16 February 2020, due to loss of voice caused by walking pneumonia.[citation needed]

Recordings[]

On 30 May 2018, it was announced that Elton John had partnered with Peex to personalize the volume for fans concert experiences plus recording the show to relive.[11][12]
