During the 24 September 2022 performance at Washington, D.C., United States President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden invited John to perform at the White House, where he was presented with the National Humanities Medal. Īt the 27 March 2022 performance in Lincoln, Nebraska, a live hookup was established during the concert and Elton's Oscars charity benefit, which he had not missed in 30 years of hosting, but opted to perform in Lincoln on that date because of the postponements. John has tour dates across the UK and Europe for 20, when the tour will wrap up. He had to temporarily postpone two shows in Dallas after testing positive for COVID-19 and experiencing mild symptoms, and resumed the tour again after making a full recovery. John's first show back took place in New Orleans, Louisiana. After it was announced in January 2022 that the tour would resume, music director Davey Johnstone stated that the band would wear masks and have tests every two days during the tour. On 15 September 2021, the European leg was postponed to 2023 after John sustained a hip injury. It was later postponed to 2021, along with the rest of the second European leg and the third North American leg, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The original announcement detailed sixteen concerts taking place across England, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland. Ī winter 2020 tour taking place in the United Kingdom and Ireland was announced on 8 November 2018. Thirteen days later concerts were revealed for Lille, Paris, Bordeaux and Nîmes, taking place in Summer 2019. 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". įurther North American tours dates were announced on 26 September 2018. Tickets went on sale on 24 February and within hours tickets for the first 60 shows were sold out. John cited spending time with his children as the reason for his retirement. 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. On 24 January 2018, it was announced that Elton John would be retiring from touring and would soon embark on a three-year tour. I can see why this event was no where near half as full as previous years.Elton John performing in Sydney, Australia, on 18 January 2023 To pay that amount and not be able to touch my kid is unexcuseable. The amount of money I spent to watch and park my car was ridiculous. I will never attend an event at that place ever again. Nowhere was safe from your incredibly rude staff. Then when I was finally allowed to touch and speak to my child we were harassed yet again by your staff for speaking to each other. They were inconsistent of whom they would allow to pass. Your remodel/new floor is not worth having kids in there alone with their parents not able to get to them. This is the first year you have separated parents from their children. They were rude, confrontational, antagonistic, and for some reason they all feel entitled to speak to your guests however they feel. After attending this event over 5 years consistently this year by far was the worst due to your staff. Over the past 4 days our children played at the Tacoma Dome for basketball.
