American entertainer Britney Spears has embarked on ten headlining concert tours. According to Pollstar, Spears has grossed $485 million throughout her career.[1] She first served as an opening act for NSYNC before starting her 1999 headlining debut, the ...Baby One More Time Tour,[2] which was based in North America only. Its success prompted an extension of dates entitled (You Drive Me) Crazy Tour.[3] The tour was positively received by critics but generated some controversy due to her racy outfits.[2] Jae-Ha Kim of the Chicago Sun-Times commented that "Spears has that 'it' factor that worked for pinup queens of the past."[4] In 2000, she performed on the Oops!... I Did It Again Tour. It was critically appreciated for Spears's energy and performance, as well as the band.[5] She then followed this with the Dream Within a Dream Tour in 2001–02, visiting Japan and Mexico for the first time. The performances were accompanied by many special effects, the pièce de résistance being a water screen that pumped two tons of water onto the stage during the encore performance of "...Baby One More Time".
The Onyx Hotel Tour (2004) was her comeback tour after a two-year break from music following her split from Justin Timberlake. Spears was inspired to create a show set in different areas of a hotel and mixed it with the concept of onyx stone, that symbolized untapped desire.[6][7] The tour was canceled after Spears hurt her knee while shooting the music video for "Outrageous". The Onyx Hotel Tour grossed $34 million, in addition to $30 million of merchandise, making Spears the highest-grossing merchandise female artist. Her next tour was the M+M's Tour in 2007. This tour consisted of six short, 15-minute shows in House of Blues clubs around the United States. She did not tour again until The Circus Starring Britney Spears in 2009. All the North American shows were sold out, and it broke attendance records in some cities.[8][9] It went on to become the fifth highest-grossing tour of 2009, with approximately $131.8 million in ticket sales.[10] After the debut of her seventh studio album Femme Fatale, Spears embarked on her Femme Fatale Tour, which visited North America, Europe, Asia, and South America.
On December 27, 2013, Spears began her first concert residency, Britney: Piece of Me, at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Originally scheduled to run for two years, the show's success led to a two-year extension, with her final performance on December 31, 2017. During the summer of 2017, Spears brought the show to Asia as an international tour, marketed as Britney: Live in Concert. In 2018, Spears continued the show in the United States and Europe as the Piece of Me Tour.[11]

L'Oreal Hair Zone Mall Tour | August 1998 – January 1999 | ...Baby One More Time | North America | Unknown |
After Spears finished recording her debut album in Sweden, she embarked on a promotional tour in malls across the United States; the same method was used to promote 1980s female popstars such as Debbie Gibson and Tiffany. Spears performed a four-song set and was supported by two backup dancers. She also met fans and magazine editors along the way, promoting a four-track demo from her album. The tour was deemed a success.[2] | ||||
NSYNC in Concert | November 17, 1998 – January 17, 1999 | ...Baby One More Time | North America | 40 |
Spears performed as the opening act for fellow Jive pop group, NSYNC. Spears opened for them in 40 U.S. cities, such as Atlanta, Cleveland, St. Louis, and Minneapolis.[32][33] Although Spears contrasted with the female audience chanting for their male idols, she won the crowds with her frenetic dance routines and high-energy songs.[2] |
