Caution World Tour was the eleventh concert tour by American singer-songwriter Mariah Carey, in support of her fifteenth studio album, Caution.[1] The tour consisted of 35 dates, including shows in North America, Europe and the Caribbean, at a mix of small and mid-size venues and arenas.
The tour received widespread acclaim, with critics praising Mariah Carey’s powerful vocals, commanding stage presence, and a setlist that blended new material with career-spanning hits. Several noted the inclusion of songs from Glitter in a dedicated act of the show, following the "#JusticeForGlitter" campaign on social media that started in 2018, as well the presence of club and hip-hop remixes, fan favorites, and classics on the setlist, which many felt showcased her enduring artistry and legacy.
Carey's fifteenth studio album, titled Caution, was released on November 16, 2018 and received universal acclaim from critics.[2] The album was described as a "fine-tuning" of Carey's previous work,[3] and was praised for its freshness which made it "pleasingly defiant",[4] with some critics hailing it as being "the new blueprint for legacy acts" of Carey's stature.[5] By December 2018, the album had been featured on several year-end lists.[6] Prior to the album's release, dates were announced for both the North American and European leg of the tour, teasing it as being her "most intimate tour yet".[7]
The opening leg of the tour was performed in small, theatre-based and mid-sized venues across North America. It kicked off on February 27, 2019 in Irving, Texas and concluded on April 6 in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.[8] The European leg of the tour was mainly arena-based, with Carey opening on May 22 in Dublin and finishing on June 13 in Amsterdam.
Following this, Carey performed at several festivals including the Festival d'été de Québec[9] at the Plains of Abraham, Canada,[10] and the Curaçao North Sea Jazz Festival.[11]
