Tickets were available for pre-sale between March 31 to April 6, before going on sale to the general public on April 7, 2014. At the end of 2014, the tour placed 13th on Pollstar's "Top 100 Worldwide Tours", earning $74.1 million from 40 shows in North America.[1] In 2015's year-end report, the tour placed 6th with a gross of $125.1 million from 78 shows, bringing the total gross so far to $199.2 million.[2]

Due to the departure of Lindsey Buckingham in 2018 and the death of Christine McVie in 2022, On with the Show would be Fleetwood Mac's final tour with the five members who recorded Rumours.

Background and development

On January 13, 2014, the band's publicist Liz Rosenberg announced that Christine McVie, who had previously quit the band in 1998 after three decades, would be rejoining. Rosenberg additionally announced that a new album and tour would be forthcoming.[3] The group spent time in March working on new music, until confirming they don't plan on releasing any new material until after the tour is finished. Tour dates were announced on March 27, 2014, and tickets went on sale to the public on April 7, 2014.[4] On October 9, 2014, the band announced it would add a 2nd Leg with an additional 28 shows beginning on January 16, 2015, in St. Paul, Minnesota and ending March 31, 2015 in Wichita, Kansas.[5] In November 2014 Mick Fleetwood went on BBC Radio 2 to announce that Fleetwood Mac would be touring through Britain in May and June 2015. However, due to high demand, more dates were added, which stretched the leg into July 2015. the Manchester Arena date on June 12, 2015, was canceled due to an illness within the band.
