What the tour means
The Canadian artist admitted that this new tour means a lot to him. He opened up about the uncertainty he had about going back onstage. When the tour was announced, he talked about how he felt performing live and his ambitions:
“Honestly, before I played in South America a couple months ago I was scared. I wasn’t sure how it was gunna feel to be back on the road again & my god…I had the absolute best time. I mean those were some of the best shows of my life”.
“I feel like time away has allowed me to come back and recognize and remember how unbelievably special it is to get to play live shows. It’s an honour and i’m just beyond grateful that you guys keep showing up after 10 years with so much love. I almost forgot i have one of the best jobs in this world.” – Source: Rolling Stone Magazine
Mendes was forced to put an end to his last tour Wonder: The World Tour. He made this difficult decision in order to preserve his mental health. Moreover, the tour was supposed to go from June 27, 2022, to August 1, 2023.
Nevertheless, the final cancellation was made when it had been going for a month, on July 27, 2022. The pop star also added that it was “one of the most difficult decisions”, but “better decisions” at the same time. Now is the time to enjoy for what the Canadian has to come next.
