Justin Timberlake concert chronology

The 20/20 Experience World Tour was the fifth concert tour by American singer-songwriter Justin Timberlake. It 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).[1] The tour began on November 6, 2013 in New York City, and concluded on January 2, 2015 in Las Vegas.

The 20/20 Experience World Tour grossed $231.6 million from 134 shows becoming the second highest-grossing tour of 2014[2] and one of the highest-grossing tours of the decade. This made Timberlake the highest-grossing solo touring artist of the year.[3] It is also Timberlake's most successful tour to date.

Critical response

Since its debut, The 20/20 Experience World Tour has received acclaim from critics. Writing for the New York Daily News, Jim Farber reviewed the opening show at Barclays Center. Farber described the concert as a "study in suave ease. Starting with 'Pusher Love Girl,' Timberlake exuded a sweatless charm."[4] Hillary Rea for The Inquirer, who attended the tour at the Wells Fargo Center, noted that Timberlake's performance "kept the audience not just alert, but hypnotized and hooked throughout a 30-song spectacle that ended just before midnight."[5] Fionnuala Bourke in a review for Birmingham Mail opined that Justin "managed to completely keep his cool amid all the screams" and he "proved his position as the President of Pop."[6] The Hollywood Reporter's Emily Zemler, described him as a performer who is "genuinely having fun," adding he "knows he's got the looks, but he is also skilled at delivering something that isn't all surface," about the concert at The Forum, Los Angeles. She added: "Onstage, the pop star and actor moves with the sort of confidence that comes only from this knowledge, where it manifests not as ego but as absolute self-assurance.[7]

Jon Pareles of The New York Times also gave a positive review noting that he "reveals something darker" and "something more fiery and intense" while performing post-breakup revenge songs such as "Cry Me a River” and “What Goes Around... Comes Around.”[8]

Costumes

"Justin has great personal style and knows what he wants which makes designing for him an absolute pleasure..."

—Tom Ford

Timberlake has been working with Tom Ford for the tour's costumes.[9] During their collaboration they have created more than 600 costumes for Timberlake and his team.[10] Most of Timberlake's costumes are black and white coloured suits.
