The Visualise Tour is the debut Australian concert tour by singer-songwriter Delta Goodrem. During July 2005, Goodrem performed a total of ten shows to an estimated audience of 80,000 people, making it one of Australia's highest selling local tours. The tour began with a "preview show" in Newcastle, before heading to Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Canberra.
The show features Goodrem with a live band, string section and four male dancers and is split into five distinctive sections, each with a different costume change and theme, designed to highlight Goodrem's versatility as a vocalist, pianist and dancer. The set list is composed of songs from both the Innocent Eyes and Mistaken Identity albums, as well Goodrem's debut single "I Don't Care" and covers of Australian rock group, Jet's "Are You Gonna Be My Girl" and Carole King's "I Feel The Earth Move". Former Westlife singer Brian McFadden joined Goodrem on stage to perform their number one single "Almost Here" as well the Westlife song "Flying Without Wings". The support act for the tour was Canadian artist, Kyle Riabko.
Goodrem became the first Australian artist to headline a show at the Sydney SuperDome (now Acer Arena), while tickets to the two Sydney shows officially outsold shows by major international acts such as Destiny's Child, Green Day and 50 Cent, who had performed in Sydney earlier the same year. The 24 July performance in Sydney was filmed for the DVD release, titled The Visualise Tour: Live in Concert.

Famous quotes containing the word tour:
“Do you know I believe that [William Jennings] Bryan will force his nomination on the Democrats again. I believe he will either do this by advocating Prohibition, or else he will run on a Prohibition platform independent of the Democrats. But you will see that the year before the election he will organize a mammoth lecture tour and will make Prohibition the leading note of every address.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
