Kylie Summer 2019

Kylie Summer 2019 is the outdoor/festival tour by Kylie Minogue. The tour consists of 15 shows throughout Europe, and began on 20 June 2019 in London, England at the Hampton Court Palace; the tour will end with a performance at Brighton and Hove Pride on 3 August 2019. The tour is in support of her fourth major greatest hits album, Step Back in Time: The Definitive Collection (2019), and includes a performance of the 'legend slot' at Glastonbury Festival 2019.

Background
The tour was first announced on 12 November 2018, during the European leg of her Golden Tour, The Edinburgh Evening News announced that Kylie had confirmed a show at Edinburgh Castle headlining the 2019 Castle Concert series. Kylie later posted on social media dates for a series of 7 concerts across the United Kingdom, taking place in the summer of 2019; throughout 2019, more dates for the tour were announced, ending up with 15 dates throughout Europe; a second date at Edignburgh Castle were announced, as well as a second show for the Eden Project; Sophie Ellis-Bextor was announced as the opening act for Blenheim and Lytham Festival.

In December 2018, it was announced that Kylie would be performing at Glastonbury Festival, playing the 'legend slot' on 30 June; this performance will come 14 years after she was meant to headline the festival in 2005, as part of her Showgirl tour, but was forced to cancel due to her cancer diagnosis.

It was initially thought that the tour would be a re-work of 2018's Golden Tour, in the way that Kylie Summer 2015 was a re-work of the Kiss Me Once Tour, but on 2 May 2019, Kylie announced the release of her greatest hits album Step Back in Time: The Definitive Collection, which sparked the rumour of a completely new show.

In an interview with Paper Magazine, Kylie mentioned the possibility of rebooting the show for a tour, sparking the rumour of a future greatest hits tour.
