Jay Chou concert chronology |
The Invincible World Tour (Chinese: 地表最強世界巡迴演唱會) was the seventh concert tour by Taiwanese recording artist Jay Chou, held in support of his fourteenth studio album Jay Chou's Bedtime Stories (2016). The tour began in Shanghai at the Mercedes-Benz Arena on June 30, 2016, and spanned 120 dates in various countries including China, Malaysia, Singapore, United Kingdom, Taiwan, Australia, the United States, and France. The tour attracted an estimated total of 3 million people.[1][2]
Production
[edit]The Invincible World Tour in Taipei saw upgraded outfits, visual and special effects, and stage props. The concert was divided into eight thematic sections, each offering a different experience. The total production cost surpassed NT$180 million, making it the most expensive concert held by Chou up to that point.[3]
Commercial performance
[edit]Pollstar ranked Chou's June 2018 Shanghai concert at number 36 in their annual top 100 international box office report, with an attendance of 43,769 people and $9,381,304 in revenue.[4]
Controversies
[edit]Chou's concert in Singapore on September 3, 2016, faced several controversies, including poor sound quality. Attendees seated close to the stage reported difficulty discerning the vocals of the singer at certain points during the concert, attributing this to the overpowering bass and excessive reverb. In addition, allegations were made regarding inadequate ventilation and crowd management.[5]
