24 Karat Gold Tour

JUMP TO: Leg 1 (US/Canada) | Leg 2 (US) | Leg 3 (Misc) | Leg 4 (AU/NZ)

Stevie Nicks24 Karat Gold Tour ran from October 25, 2016 until November 24, 2017. Stevie performed shows in the U.S., Canada, England, Australia, and New Zealand.

Stevie initially supported the release of her eighth solo album 24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault with a North American tour. Planned to be a 27-city tour of the U.S. and Canada, the tour began in Phoenix, Arizona, on October 25, 2016 and ended in Los Angeles, California, on December 18, 2016. But due to strong ticket sales in major markets — including sellouts at Madison Square Garden in New York on December 1 and The Forum in Los Angeles on December 18 — Stevie added 20 additional dates in the new year, focused on the secondary concert market. Leg 2 of the tour kicked off in Reno, Nevada, on February 23, 2017 and ended on April 6, 2017 in Long Island, New York.

At the end of Leg 1 (at the Inglewood show), Stevie told the audience that she might be extending the tour to Australia, but didn’t know for sure. She kept those hopes alive at the end of Leg 2 (at the Uniondale show), telling the crowd that Australia tour may kick off in the fall.

On August 9, 2017, Stevie officially announced that she would be touring Australia and New Zealand in November. The third and final leg of the tour began in Perth, West Australia, on November 2, 2017. The shows continued throughout the month, wrapping up in Dunedin, New Zealand, on November 24, 2017.

The 24 Karat Gold Tour has been Stevie’s most successful solo tour, to date.

Deep Cuts

For the 24 Karat Gold Tour, Stevie refreshed her concert setlist, performing an eclectic mix of songs from her vast career catalog. Half of the set was comprised of material from what Stevie dubbed, “the gothic trunk of lost songs.” These deeper cuts were “Gold and Braid,” “Belle Fleur,” “Wild Heart,” “Bella Donna,” “New Orleans,” “Starshine,” “Moonlight (A Vampire’s Dream),” “If You Were My Love,” and the  Buckingham-Nicks-era track “Crying in the Night.” The remaining songs consisted of classics from her solo and Fleetwood Mac catalog, most of which were performed toward the end of the shows (“Stand Back,” “Gold Dust Woman,” “Edge of Seventeen, “Rhiannon,” and “Landslide.”)

As the tour progressed, Stevie told detailed stories behind her songs to the joy or frustration of fans, depending on their desired concert experience. She aspired not to perform “the same show you’ve probably seen a million times.”

The Pretenders

 The Pretenders accompanied Stevie on the tour, opening the shows. Led by the venerable Chrissie Hynde, The Pretenders showcased an equally impressive career catalog with songs like “Back on the Chain Gang,” “Don’t Get Me Wrong,” and “I’ll Stand By You.” Chrissie joined Stevie onstage later in the show for the duet “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” from Stevie’s first solo album Bella Donna (1981).

The tour continued without incident until The Pretenders reached Florida, where Chrissie acquired a respiratory infection. The Pretenders ended up canceling three performances (Jacksonville, FL; Charlotteville, VA; and Baltimore, MD). Chrissie later apologized for the cancellations, providing an explanation on her Facebook page.

Stevie Nicks 24 Karat Gold The Concert

On March 29 and March 31, 2017, camera crews filmed the Indianapolis and Pittsburgh shows, respectively. Trafalgar Releasing released the footage in Stevie Nicks 24 Karat Gold The Concert, a film that briefly screened in select theaters on October 21 and 25, 2020. The film was made available through video-on-demand from October 29 to November 5, 2020.
