American recording artist Kelly Rowland has embarked on 17 concert tours during her career, ten of which with Destiny's Child (three as a main act, one as a collaborative act, and six as an opening act), and seven of which as a solo artist (two of her own, one as a co-headlining act, three as a collaborative act and one as an opening act). In her seven solo live tours and notable events dates, she has performed as a solo singer in over 128 shows on six continents through twenty-two countries: in Asia (China, Japan, Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore), in Africa (Nigeria, Egypt), in Europe (Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Denmark, Monaco), in North America (United States, Canada and The Bahamas), in South America (Brazil) and in Oceania (Australia, and the US State of Hawaii). Throughout a career spanning 18 years, Rowland has sold over 66 million records as a solo artist with four studio albums, two compilation albums, one box set, two extended plays and forty-three singles, including nineteen as a featured artist and five promotional singles,[1] and further 60 million records with Destiny's Child.[2] Her work has earned her several awards and nominations, including four Grammy Awards, a Billboard Music Award and a Soul Train Music Award. Rowland has also received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame with Destiny's Child, and as a solo artist she has been honored by the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers and Essence for her contributions to music. In 2014, Fuse ranked Rowland in their "100 Most Award-Winning Artists" list at number 20.[3]

The Simply Deeper Tour was her debut concert tour as a solo artist. It was launched in support of her debut solo album Simply Deep (2002). The Simply Deeper Tour only reached Europe. The concert embarked on a seventeen date tour, hitting up seventeen European cities between September 2003 and October 2003.[5][6] While Rowland enjoyed moderate success in North American countries such as the U.S. and Canada, her album was a commercial success in the European market and was certified gold or platinum in six countries. Simply Deep also peaked in the top twenty within nine European countries, peaking at number one in both the UK and Ireland. Rowland was originally set to embark on her tour at the beginning of April 2003, but pushed the tour back to September 2003 because of fears regarding the ongoing wars with Afghanistan and Iraq.[5][7] While the tour received limited reviews, the Simply Deeper Tour's London show appeared to be well received. Melisa Tang of the U.K. online entertainment webazine, The Situation, states, "Even though the Hammersmith Apollo was smaller than other venues this girl is probably used to, Kelly had given it her all, and it had certainly paid off. Everyone left the auditorium buzzing with delight, and even I was surprised at how this once shy teenager had blossomed into a strong, confident young woman."[8] Lisa Verrico of The Times had mixed reviews of Rowland's London show. "There's no question that Rowland has an outstanding voice and there were a surprising number of good songs in her set."[7] Verrico acknowledges before claiming, "The snag was that they weren’t as good as DC's best."[7]

Supafest was an annual music festival tour held in Australia during April. It started in 2010, spreading out to in five major capital cities (Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Sydney), though in 2011 the festival was reduced to four shows with the Adelaide leg withdrawn as well as the second show in Sydney. Dubbed as Australia's largest urban music festival, the festival promises to deliver some of the most exciting and leading performers in the urban music world.[12] The festival began in 2010 with an announcement in December 2009 introducing the "Ladies And Gentlemen Tour", scheduled for February 2010 with Ne-Yo, Pitbull, Kelly Rowland and Chris Sorbello.[13] After this was announced the show was renamed into "Jamfest" in February 2010 and was rescheduled for April 2010. Due to a potential legal conflict, the promoters changed the name again to "Supafest".[14] Supafest Australia kicked off in Adelaide, 13 April 2010 and ended in Perth on 18 April 2010. The tours headlining acts were Akon, Kelly Rowland, Jay Sean, Sean Paul, Pitbull and Eve. Each city had separate opening acts. Tickets for the Sydney show on 15 April were quickly sold out. A second show in Sydney on 16 April had been scheduled due to ticket demands.[15] The organisers of the festival expanded the Supafest to one show outside of Australia and tried to place it at Colombo, Sri Lanka[16] but was later cancelled.[17] Since 2010 the lineups have expanded and the structure and locations of the shows have changed to accommodate the crowd figures. During the tour, she performed the songs from her collaborations and third album Here I Am, and her repertoire.
