Tour Notes
Elton John embarked on his “Farewell Yellow Brick Road” tour in Sept. 2018. This artist has sold more than 300 million records in his 50-year career and has been showered with accolades — Grammy Awards, BRIT Awards, an Academy and Tony Award, and even a British knighthood since 1998. The tour was conceived as a trek that would travel to five continents and continue through 2020 with at least 270 shows on the schedule. After being interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, projections called for 229 shows by the end of 2021.
