The legendary Elton John will perform at the Credit One Stadium on Tuesday, September 13th, 2022 at 8 pm. Tickets go on sale April 6th at 10 am. The concert is part of the “Elton John Farewell Yellow Brick Road The Final Tour.”
“It's hard to believe that after tomorrow in St. Louis, I'll have just a handful of shows left before I wrap up my final arena performances in the United States,” John said on his social media channels (see below). “This year will see my grand finale in North America, playing stadiums all around the country, with the most spectacular production I've ever had. Thank you for sharing this journey with me. I cherish these memories we're making together. It has been nothing short of incredible and I look forward to seeing you very soon one last time, on my Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour.”
The past year has seen John return to the recorded music charts with his smash hit “Cold Heart (PNAU REMIX),” which hit #7 on Billboard's Hot 100, and #1 on its Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, as well as charting at #1 on the U.K. singles chart upon its release.
