Fearless Tour performer Taylor Swift
The Fearless Tour was the first headlining concert tour by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, launched in support of her second studio album, Fearless (2008). Big Machine Records announced the first 52-date North American leg in January 2009; before the tour began on April 23, 2009, in Evansville, U.S., Swift had headlined music festivals in North America. Through 2009, Swift announced additional dates in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Japan, and the Fearless Tour concluded on July 10, 2010, in Cavendish, Canada. Kellie Pickler, Gloriana, and Justin Bieber were supporting acts.
Upon completion, the Fearless Tour drew 1.2 million people in attendance and grossed $66.5 million from 118 shows across 15 months. Several shows were recorded and released for a concert series, Journey to Fearless, which aired on The Hub from October 22 to 24, 2010. Journey to Fearless was later released on DVD and Blu-ray in October 2011.
