KylieX2008 was the tenth concert tour by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue, in support of her tenth studio album, X (2007). The tour began on 6 May 2008 in Paris, France, at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy and concluded on 22 December 2008 in Melbourne, Australia, at the Rod Laver Arena. Consisting of five legs, with a total of 53 shows, the tour visited 24 European countries, six in South America, seven countries and territories within Asia, and eight cities across Australia and New Zealand. Additionally, much to fans' delight, KylieX2008 would see Minogue performing in a variety of regions for the first time in her career—which, at the time, spanned roughly 20 years—, such as Argentina, Beijing, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Denmark, Dubai, Finland, Greece, Hong Kong, Latvia, Norway, Shanghai, Singapore, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, and Venezuela.
Upon the announcement of the For You, for Me Tour the following year, both Billboard and Pollstar confirmed that KylieX2008 generated an estimated US$70m in ticket sales.[2][3][4]
