Justin Timberlake performing on his 20/20 Experience World Tour in 2014

American singer-songwriter Justin Timberlake has embarked on five concert tours during his solo career, three of which have been worldwide and two of which have been collaborative.[nb 1] His 2003 debut The Justified World Tour began at intimate gigs at clubs and theatres in the United States and Australia before expanding to arenas in Europe.[1] In summer 2003, Timberlake and Christina Aguilera headlined the Justified/Stripped Tour.[2] Later that year he recorded a song "I'm Lovin' It", used by McDonald's as the theme to its "I'm Lovin' It" campaign. The deal with McDonald's earned Timberlake an estimated $6 million. A tour titled Justified and Lovin' It Live was included with the deal, following his initial Justified World Tour.[3] For the release of his sophomore record FutureSex/LoveSounds, Timberlake embarked on his second worldwide tour FutureSex/LoveShow in 2007, which eventually became the third highest-grossing concert tour of the year. During the tour, he visited Asia, Europe, North America and Oceania.

In 2013, Timberlake took part in his second collaborative tour, Legends of the Summer, in which he was co-headlining with rapper, frequent collaborator Jay-Z. The all-stadium tour that took place in North America[4] was praised by music critics, who highlighted the great chemistry between both artists.[5] It was followed by The 20/20 Experience World Tour, which became the second highest-grossing tour of 2014. This made Timberlake the highest-grossing solo touring artist of the year. The Man of the Woods Tour is his sixth and most recent concert tour. Timberlake's televised performances include his debut at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards, the controversial Super Bowl XXXVIII halftime show as a guest act, his comeback performance at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards, his medley number at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards, several appearances on Saturday Night Live and the Super Bowl LII halftime show.

An extended play, entitled Justin & Christina, was released exclusively at Target Stores to support the tour. The tour was met with mixed reviews from most contemporary music critics.

On November 19, 2007, a live video album named FutureSex/LoveShow: Live from Madison Square Garden was released.[12]

For a "special preview" of the tour both artists performed at the Olympic Park in London, United Kingdom as part of the Wireless Festival.[14] They performed in major stadiums across the U.S. and Canada.[4] It was praised by critics, with Billboard's Karen Bliss writing "there was no one-upmanship, just camaraderie, not competition, two guys that work well together."[15] With the 14 dates sold-out, it was the 15th highest-grossing tour of 2013.[16]
2013–15 The 20/20 Experience World Tour November 6, 2013 – January 2, 2015 (Worldwide) 134 $231.6 million[17][18]
The 20/20 Experience World Tour was launched in support of his third and fourth studio albums, The 20/20 Experience (2013) and The 20/20 Experience – 2 of 2 (2013).[19] The 20/20 Experience allowed Timberlake to throw back to the big-band era,[20] its stage production embraced a vintage sheen and everyone in classic suits. Timberlake had a horn section onstage with him called The Regiment Horns, among the big-band orchestra the Tennessee Kids.[21] During the tour, Timberlake visited Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and Oceania. The tour received acclaim from critics,[22] became the second highest-grossing tour of 2014.[23] This made Timberlake the highest-grossing solo touring artist of the year.[17] Canadian singer The Weeknd featured as the opening act in selected North America dates.[24] Showcasing the final date of the tour at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena, the space-age themed concert film—titled JT + The Tennessee Kids and directed by Jonathan Demme—will premiere at the 2016 Toronto International Film Festival.[25][26] The concert film was released on streaming service Netflix in October 2016.[27]
2018–19 The Man of the Woods Tour March 13, 2018 – April 13, 2019 (Worldwide) 115 $226.3 million[28]
Timberlake embarked on The Man of the Woods Tour in support of his fifth studio album, Man of the Woods (2018).[29] The Man of the Woods Tour received positive reviews from critics and was the sixth highest-grossing tour of 2018.[30] Billboard critics ranked The Man of the Woods Tour as one of the best live shows of 2018.[31] David Menconi of The News & Observer said "Justin Timberlake returns to the stage and proves why he's America's pop star", and noted him as "The Prince of Pop". He also said of the show that Timberlake "Sang quite well... But he danced even better, and that's what turned the crowd on most of all. How he moved was at least as important as how he sang."[32] Chris Conde of San Antonio Current deemed it "an spectacle of undeniable talent... Even if you don’t like pop music, Timberlake's show was so rich in musicianship and showmanship that anyone wanting to say something bad would be hard-pressed to, ahem, justify a negative review."[33]
