An Evening with Adele was the debut concert tour by English singer-songwriter Adele, in support of her debut studio album, 19. The tour was unusual in that it included few dates in the United Kingdom, Adele's home country and the territory where 19 was the most successful. Instead, the tour focused heavily on North America.
In 2008, Adele canceled her tours in Germany, Japan, and the United States. The cancellation was reported to be due to family issues. In an apologetic blog post to fans, the singer explains she'll honour commitments she has made in New York this weekend, but then she has to fly home. She writes: "There's some problems at home... and, at the moment, there (sic) stopping me from being away for any long period of time. I was really looking forward to touring again and throwing myself back into it all. But my home life needs more attention right now. "I apologise from the bottom of my heart for disappointing you all, I'm truly gutted!
One of the last performances on the tour took place at the historic Hollywood Bowl. Etta James was supposed to appear at the performance but cancelled at the last-minute due to illness and was replaced by Chaka Khan. The last performance of the tour was at the North Sea Jazz Festival.
