“I love your part of the world dearly and cannot wait to share these concerts with you!”

The Tiny Dancer star will play shows in Newcastle, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane in Australia and Christchurch in New Zealand as part of the new leg.

Speaking to the crowd during his gig at the Carrow Road football stadium in Norwich, England back in June, Elton thanked fans for their support over the years. 

“Tonight is the 229th show on the Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, we have about 103 shows to do. It’s been quite a journey and it all ends next July,” he said. 

“But I want to thank you because I won’t be playing here again. I want to thank you for all the memories, all the love you’ve sent me, all the loyalty, the kindness, the letters, the dressing up, the costumes, the multiple shows you’ve been to.”

“It means the world to me and I will never forget you guys.”

The I’m Still Standing star announced his ‘Farewell Yellow Brick Road’ tour in 2018 but was forced off the road amid the pandemic. He later axed a set of dates due to illness, with the tour currently set to run through mid-2023. 

Tickets for the new dates are on sale now. 

The full list of Australia and New Zealand tour dates is as follows:

January 2023

10 – McDonald Jones Stadium, Newcastle, NSW
13 – AAMI Park, Melbourne, VIC
18 – Allianz Stadium, Sydney, NSW
21 – Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane, QLD
24 – Orangetheory Stadium, Christchurch
27 – Mt Smart Stadium, Auckland (rescheduled)
28 – Mt Smart Stadium, Auckland (rescheduled)
