Queen Tours

This page is a brief summary of Queen's various tours. Shows are considered to be part of the same tour if they feature a very similar setlist, and are adjacent chronologically. The main tour name is listed first, along with the number of shows, and the individual legs of the tour are listed below.

This list only focuses on proper tours, from the first UK tour (starting on 20 October 1973) to the Magic tour (ending on 9 August 1986), plus the Queen + Paul Rodgers tours between 2005 and 2008. One-off shows between 1973 and 1986 are also included, but those from outside this period are excluded as they are so numerous.
