On with the Show (concert tour)


On with the Show was a world tour by rock band Fleetwood Mac. The tour began in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on 30 September 2014 and concluded in Auckland, New Zealand, on 22 November 2015. Tickets were offered through a pre-sale from 31 March to 6 April 2014, before going on general sale on 7 April 2014. In its 2014 year-end report, Pollstar ranked the tour 13th on its "Top 100 Worldwide Tours", reporting earnings of $74.1 million from 40 shows in North America. In Pollstar 2015 year-end rankings, the tour placed sixth, with a reported gross of $125.1 million from 78 shows, bringing the cumulative gross to $199.2 million.
Following the departure of Lindsey Buckingham in 2018 and death of Christine McVie in 2022, On with the Show became Fleetwood Mac's final tour featuring the band's most successful lineup of Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood, Christine McVie, John McVie, and Stevie Nicks.

Background and development

On 13 January 2014, band publicist Liz Rosenberg announced that Christine McVie would rejoin Fleetwood Mac, after having left the group in 1998. Rosenberg also stated that a new album and tour were planned. The band spent time in March 2014 working on new material, but later confirmed that no new releases would be issued until after the tour. Tour dates were announced on 27 March 2014, with tickets going on general sale on 7 April 2014.
On 9 October 2014, the band announced a second North American leg, adding 28 additional shows from 16 January 2015 in St. Paul, Minnesota, to 31 March 2015 in Wichita, Kansas. In November 2014, Mick Fleetwood announced on BBC Radio 2 that Fleetwood Mac would tour Britain in May and June 2015. Due to high demand, additional dates were added, extending the British leg into July 2015. The Manchester Arena concert scheduled for 12 June 2015 was cancelled due to illness within the band.
