The Saturdays concert chronology

Greatest Hits Live! (also known as Finest Selection Tour) is the fourth headlining concert tour by British-Irish girl group The Saturdays. It was their first tour in three years, launched in support of their Greatest hits album, Finest Selection: The Greatest Hits.

Background

Just a few months after releasing their fourth studio album Living for the Weekend (2013), the group announced they would release a Greatest Hits album and tour in support for the album. The tour was the group's first in three years. The tour played a mixture of theatres and arenas with most dates sold out at full capacity. The largest attendance for a single show was Wembley Arena, London with almost 10,000 in attendance. However the show received underwhelming support from the public in comparison to the All Fired Up! Tour in 2011 which played larger venues with higher attendances.
