When George first announced his 25 Live Tour tickets were snapped up in minutes. The critically acclaimed tour saw George perform in front of over 2 million people worldwide with a 49 date 25 Live Arena Tour and a 30 date 25 Live Stadium Tour. In Summer 2008 Michael took his 25 Live Tour to arenas across North America touring North America for the first time in 20 years. In London alone, 350,000 people collectively watched him performing in Earls Court, Wembley Arena, The Roundhouse and the newly renovated Wembley Stadium, where he made musical history as the first artist to perform at the momentous venue in June 2007.
His exceptional performances in the UK, Europe and North America received unprecedented praise from both critics and fans across the globe.
“George proved he is simply one of the best vocalists this country has ever produced.” - The Sun
“King George still reigns supreme” - Mail on Sunday
“A masterclass in pop genius” - The Observer
“A tremendous singer, a complete showman. All George Michael needs is a mic, his songs, and the magic on stage is instaneous” - La Parisien
“As he closed with the still stirring ‘Freedom’, his hands raised high, testifying like an evangelist for self determination. Then he was on his knees, giving the ‘I’m not worthy’ bow several times towards his fans. His crowds roared back, still dancing to the music, suggesting that maybe he was’. - Rolling Stone
