American singer Madonna has embarked on ten concert tours, nine of which have been worldwide. Her 1985 debut, The Virgin Tour, was based in North America only and was critically panned but went on to collect more than US $5 million.[1] In 1987 she performed on the worldwide Who's That Girl World Tour, which visited Europe, North America and Japan. It was critically appreciated for Madonna's showmanship and "exquisite" dresses.[2][3] She embarked on the Blond Ambition World Tour in 1990, which Don Shewey of Rolling Stone called "the best tour of [the year]".[4] The performances featured Madonna simulating masturbation during "Like a Virgin".[5] Officials in Toronto threatened to arrest her unless she removed the masturbation sequence, and in Italy, the Pope called for a boycott.[3] In 1993, Madonna visited Israel and Turkey for the first time, followed by Latin America and Australia, with The Girlie Show World Tour. Madonna opened the show dressed as a whip-cracking dominatrix, surrounded by topless dancers of both sexes.[3] A review in Time by Sam Buckley said: "Madonna, once the Harlow harlot and now a perky harlequin, is the greatest show-off on earth."[6]
Madonna did not tour again until the Drowned World Tour in 2001. She played guitar and her costumes included a punkish tartan kilt and a geisha kimono. Some critics complained that the show concentrated on material from her most recent albums, but generally the response was favorable.[3] She grossed more than US $75 million with summer sold-out shows and eventually played in front of 730,000 people throughout North America and Europe.[7][8] The Drowned World Tour was followed by the 2004 Re-Invention World Tour. Madonna was inspired to create the tour after taking part in an art installation called X-STaTIC PRo=CeSS, directed by photographer Steven Klein.[9] Billboard awarded Madonna the "Backstage Pass Award" in recognition of having the top-grossing tour of the year, with ticket sales of nearly US $125 million.[10]
Madonna's next tours broke world records, with the 2006 Confessions Tour grossing over US $194.7 million,[11] becoming the highest-grossing tour ever for a female artist at that time.[12] This feat was surpassed in 2008 with the Sticky & Sweet Tour, which went on to become the highest-grossing tour ever by a solo artist, and the second highest-grossing tour of all time, with approximately US $408 million in ticket sales.[13] In 2012, The MDNA Tour became the second highest-grossing tour among female artists, only behind the Sticky & Sweet Tour, grossing over US $305 million.[14] With her 2015–16 Rebel Heart Tour, which grossed $169.8 million, Madonna extended her record as the highest grossing solo touring artist, with over $1.31 billion in concert gross, starting from the Blond Ambition World Tour.[15]
Madonna has also embarked on four promotional tours for the release of her studio albums Music (2000), American Life (2003), Confessions on a Dance Floor (2005) and Hard Candy (2008). She has also made appearances at the charity concerts Live Aid (1985), Live 8 (2005) and Live Earth (2007), as well as performing at the Super Bowl XLVI halftime show in 2012, which was the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show in history. Madonna is the top touring female artist of all time according to Billboard Boxscore.[14] She is the highest grossing solo touring artist, with over $1.31 billion in concert gross, starting from the Blond Ambition World Tour in 1990; she first crossed a billion gross with The MDNA Tour. Overall, Madonna ranks third on all-time top-grossing Billboard Boxscore list, with just The Rolling Stones ($1.84 billion) and U2 ($1.67 billion) ahead of her.[15] During the London stop of her 2006 Confessions Tour, Madonna became the first performer to be inducted into the Wembley Arena Square of Fame.[16]
Concert tours
Year | Title | Duration | Shows | Gross |
---|---|---|---|---|
1985 | The Virgin Tour | April 10, 1985 – June 11, 1985 (North America) | | |
The Virgin Tour was Madonna's debut concert tour. It promoted her first two albums, Madonna and Like a Virgin. According to her, she was inspired by Michael Jackson and Prince's live shows for the tour.[17] Although Madonna gained an international audience, the tour only visited North America. Tickets for the show at New York City's Radio City Music Hall were completely sold out in a record-breaking 34 minutes.[18] In the end several more US dates were added and the tour moved to larger concert venues due to strong ticket sales. Critics panned the tour, calling it atrocious and deducing that Madonna "will be out of business in six months".[18] The Virgin Tour was a success and collected a total of more than US $5 million. A music video Madonna Live: The Virgin Tour was released in 1985 and featured a date from Detroit.[1][18] | ||||

The 38 concert dates of the Who's That Girl World Tour played to 2.5 million fans. It was Madonna's first world tour, reaching Asia, North America and Europe. The tour supported her third studio album, True Blue as well as the soundtrack Who's That Girl.[19] Denoted as a "theatrical multi-media spectacular", the tour had everything – from sex, sensation and religious uproar for projecting the Pope's image during one performance.[19] Critically appreciated as a technically and fashionably superior and unprecedented tour, Who's That Girl was a commercial success, earning almost US $25 million and playing to a record breaking 130,000 audience in Paris. In 1987, a TV special live from Italy was broadcast in Europe entitled Madonna in Concerto, it was later released on home video as Ciao Italia: Live from Italy in 1988. Another special, Who's That Girl: Live in Japan, was broadcast and made commercially available in Japan only.[20][21] | ||||

The Blond Ambition World Tour was the third concert tour by Madonna. It supported her fourth studio album, Like a Prayer, and the soundtrack, I'm Breathless. The tour reached Japan, North America, and Europe. Inspired by the 1972 film Cabaret, it was a widely publicized and reported in the media, mainly for its juxtaposition of Catholic imagery and sexual content.[4][22] Rolling Stone called it an "elaborately choreographed, sexually provocative extravaganza" and proclaimed it "the best tour of 1990." In 1991, the documentary Madonna: Truth or Dare (also known as In Bed with Madonna), was released chronicling the tour. The tour received the "Most Creative Stage Production" at the Pollstar Concert Industry Awards. An HBO special was broadcast in 1990 titled Madonna – Live! Blond Ambition World Tour 90 and was released commercially by Pioneer Electronics as Blond Ambition World Tour Live. Another release, Blond Ambition Japan Tour 90, was available in Japan only and a date from Barcelona was broadcast in Europe.[4] | ||||

The Girlie Show was the fourth concert tour by Madonna, in support of her fifth studio album, Erotica. The tour visited the North and South America, Europe, Australia and Japan.[23] Madonna's inspiration for the name of the tour was a painting called "Girlie Show" by Edward Hopper. The tour was estimated to have grossed over US $70 million. Fans and critics noted it as Madonna's best tour, reaffirming that "as a singer and stage performer, Madonna could still please her audience." Two separate TV specials were broadcast in 1993; Madonna Live in Japan: The Girlie Show, which was only broadcast in Japan and an HBO special titled Madonna Live Down Under: The Girlie Show, this version was released on home video in 1994.[24] | ||||
2001 | Drowned World Tour | June 9, 2001 – September 15, 2001 (Worldwide) | | |
The Drowned World Tour was the fifth concert tour by Madonna in support of her seventh and eight studio albums, Ray of Light and Music. The tour was only in Europe and North America, and was critically appreciated from contemporary critics who complimented her ability to re-invent continuously.[25][26] It was a commercial success and went on to become the fourth-most successful and highest-grossing concert tours of 2001. She grossed more than US $75 million with summer sold-out shows and eventually played in front of 730,000 people throughout North America and Europe. An HBO special titled Madonna Live!

It won the Top Tour award as part of the 2004 Billboard Touring Awards.[28][29] The tour was chronicled in the 2005 documentary I'm Going to Tell You a Secret and a live album/DVD set was released in 2006.[30] | ||||

After the first leg, it became the highest grossing tour by a solo artist, earning $282 million, breaking the previous record Madonna herself held with the Confessions Tour. Overall, Madonna performed to over 3.5 million fans in 32 countries, grossing a total of US$408 million, making it also the second highest grossing tour of all time and the highest grossing tour by a solo artist.
