When Is Queen Touring?
With its anniversary of creation this year, the well-known rock band Queen Tickets is also on a global tour right now. Early in the 1970s, queens first became well-known with singles like "Bohemian Rhapsody," "We Will Rock You," and "We Are the Champions," then in the 1970s and 1980s they were most popular. After Freddie Mercury passed away in 1991, the band broke up for many years; nevertheless, May and Taylor rebuilt Queen in the middle of the 2000s, touring with
Queen celebrated their 50th year this year, hence it is not surprising that they are still active for another tour. Starting in June 2022 and ending in July 2023, it will pass across Europe, North America, Oceania, and Asia. Queen's present and future tours are broken out here.
The Rhapsody Tour: 2022-2023
Starting in Europe in June 2022, the Queen has set out on a global tour known as The Rhapsody Tour as part of their 50th anniversary; further dates are set for Europe in July 2022. Starting in August through September 2022 and the Australasian leg from late September to early October, the tour then headed to North America. Following the summer break, the Rhapsody Tour carried on with events throughout Europe beginning on May 23, 2023, and finishing in July 2023. Anticipated to complete the 2023 calendar are the two additional legs in Asia and the return to North America.
Among other members are guitar player Brian May and drum player Roger Taylor. Adam Lambert does the vocals mostly. Lambert has been traveling with Queen ever since he joined their touring roster in 2014. He dances on stage and has a high-pitched voice that reminds him something of Freddie Mercury but yet manages to be original. The visiting members this year are keyboardist Tyler Warren and bassist Neil Fairclough.
Spanning the early 1970s to the late 1980s, and everything in between, the Rhapsody Tour playlist includes songs spanning the entire Queen career. While "Love of My Life" and "Under Pressure" are more raw, favorite songs including "We Will Rock You," "Somebody to Love," and "Radio Ga Ga" show active crowd engagement. Having played more than 200 times throughout the years, this particular Queen lineup has also been developing based on live performance.

On the Horizon
Given the excitement and crowd reaction to The Rhapsody Tour, one might anticipate further Queen and Adam Lambert tour dates when 2023 is finished. The original members said in the following interviews that they had no plans for resigning from the band. Before the most recent leg, drummer Roger Taylor said, "We are absolutely on a roll."
Echoing Taylor's feelings, guitarist Brian May said, "I'm looking forward to this even though I'm not sure if this is the end." Queen has proved the ability to play and draw audiences in venues for five straight decades; so, it may be difficult to predict if the band's path would not continue even after the golden jubilee celebration.
The fans, young and old, will have plenty of songs to sing along to the anthems, immerse themselves in the solos, and savor the Queen magic even if the great musicians continue to travel on the Rhapsody Tour. Though alternative times are feasible, the current race in 2023 is set for July 23rd at Madrid's WiZINK Center Arena. The greatest location to get the most recent updates on any possible additional tours as the Queen continues commemorating this jubilee and expanding their legacy is their official website and social media accounts.
