Sir Elton John will hold what he has described as his “final farewell show” in Sweden this weekend as his tour comes to an end. Billed as his retirement from touring, the megastar played his last UK date at Glastonbury festival last month and will bring the tour to an end on Saturday at the Tele2 Arena in Stockholm.
The 76-year-old singer-songwriter has been travelling the globe on his marathon Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour since 2018, which has been paused at various points due to the pandemic and his own positive test for Covid-19.
Sir Elton has performed for more than 50 years, which has featured tours with Billy Joel and on-stage collaborations with rapper Eminem, US country veteran Dolly Parton and actor Taron Egerton, who played him in the biopic Rocketman.
