Background

edit

On November 12, 2012, Del Rey released her third extended play, Paradise worldwide. The extended play was released as a stand-alone EP, but was also re-released with her second studio album, Born to Die, which was named Born to Die: The Paradise Edition.[1] The EP debuted at number 10 on the United States Billboard 200 with a first week sales of 67,000 copies and also charted fairly in other European countries. The album also gained positive reviews from many critics including the Rolling Stone calling the EP "conceptually sharp" and the Los Angeles Times stating that the album is "strong".[2] Dates for a tour in support of the EP were announced on October 31, 2012, beginning with an extensive European leg of shows, and tickets became available on November 5, 2012.[1] Gradually, Del Rey began to add more dates including festival and headlining shows in many European countries such as Germany, Sweden, and Norway. During 2013, Del Rey announced dates for United States, Turkey, Brazil, Chile, and Argentina. Most of the European shows from April to May 2013 were supported by Kassidy, a Scottish band fronted by Del Rey's then boyfriend, Barrie-James O'Neill.[3]

The tour was later extended into 2014, during the 2014 shows Del Rey performed songs from Ultraviolence. During February and March 2014, a leg of North American shows were announced surrounding Del Rey's appearances at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.[4] Throughout the following months, more dates were announced including European and American festival shows, and headlining shows in Mexico.[5] The entire tour concluded with two one-off shows at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Los Angeles during October 2014.[6]
