For the tour, McElderry performed songs of his albums, Wide Awake, released under Syco, Classic, released under Decca, and would later add "Last Christmas" to the set, which is featured on his third album, Classic Christmas, also released under Decca. He also performed songs that was sung on The X Factor and The X Factor Tour 2010 as well as some new covers that he had never sung before. He set up a poll on his Facebook asking which song he should sing on the tour, the choices were "Home", "I Won't Let You Go", "Halo", "Someone Like You", "Your Song" or "The Edge of Glory". "Home" was chosen to be performed on the tour.[1]
The first two shows were warm up gigs and were not advertised on his official website.[3][4] A second Newcastle City Hall gig was added due to popular demand.[5]
