Elton John's Final Tour To Play At Nassau Coliseum

Elton John's final tour, Farewell Yellow Brick Road, has been selling out shows around the world. Now, the superstar has decided to add a stop at Nassau Coliseum, as well as a second show at the Barclay's Center, to meet demand in the area.

The Coliseum show is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 9, and the second Barclay's show is set for Saturday, March 9, 2019. Tickets to Barclays Center’s previously announced show date on Friday, March 8, 2019, are sold out.

The show will be the first time Elton John has played at the Coliseum since 2006, when he brought two shows of his Captain and the Kid tour to the venue.

Tickets to both shows go on sale Friday, Feb. 16 at 10 a.m., and can be purchased on Ticketmaster.com, nycblive.com, and barclayscenter.com, or by calling 800-745-3000. Tickets can also be purchased at the Ticketmaster Box Office at the Coliseum or at the American Express Box Office at Barclays Center starting Saturday, Feb. 17 at noon (if tickets are still available). American Express card members can purchase tickets in advance beginning Thursday, Feb. 8 at 10 a.m. through Monday, Feb. 12 at 10 p.m.

The Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour will consist of more than 300 shows across five continents, hitting North America, Europe, Asia, South America, and Australasia before reaching its conclusion in 2021. These dates mark Elton John's last-ever tour, the end of half a century on the road for one of pop culture’s most enduring performers. Elton’s new stage production will take his fans on a musical and highly visual journey spanning his 50-year career of hits.
