Elton John's farewell tour
The artist completed his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour in July 2023 in Stockholm, Sweden. The long-running tour included 330 shows and lasted five years.
Elton John shared a post on Instagram after the end of his tour on July 10, 2023. In the caption, he mentioned that he couldn't have imagined "the twists and turns and the highs and lows" that he experienced while on tour, referring to obstacles like Covid 19.
"I’m trying to process it and I don’t think it will sink in for a while yet that I’m finally finished touring. I can’t tell you how much I’m going to miss you all and how much your support has humbled me - it will stay with me forever," he said.
The Rocket Man singer also headlined the Pyramid Stage at the Glastonbury Festival on June 25, 2023, where he performed for two hours.
Elton's husband, David Furnish spoke about the 76-year-old's farewell tour in an interview with Metro and said:
“It’s always hard saying goodbye. It’s hard. I really miss him. The boys really miss him. He really misses us. He’s had enough of that. We’ve had enough of that. Now it’s time to spend more time together as a family.”
David also said that Elton John felt "jubilant" about the new change. Although the singer has retired from live touring, he has not completely stopped performing at one-off shows.
The couple first met in 1993 and registered their civil partnership in 2005, as per People. They welcomed their first son, Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John in 2010 and their second son Elijah Joseph Daniel Furnish-John in 2013 via surrogacy. The couple then tied the knot in 2014.
