The Moving On! Tour was a symphonic concert tour by the British rock band the Who, partially in support of their album Who.

Overview

The Moving On! Tour consisted of 29 performances in North America and the United Kingdom.^[1] The tour was announced on January 11, 2019, and included local symphonic orchestras accompanying the Who at each performance, with orchestral arrangements by David Campbell.^[2] Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey are the only remaining members of the group, along with longtime touring members Simon Townshend and Zak Starkey, and an ensemble of others. The tour was cut short in March 2020 by the COVID-19 pandemic. Ten shows in Ireland and the United Kingdom were eventually rescheduled for March 2021, but those were canceled a month before the fact in February 2021 and the band has announced no further plans.
