After an incredible 50 years of touring, legendary singer Elton John has officially retired from the road.

At his final performance at Stockholm’s Tele2 Arena, Elton John expressed his sincere gratitude to his ardent fans for their unwavering support throughout his incredible career.

“I can’t believe it’s been 52 years of pure joy,” the 76-year-old singer said as the moved audience applauded him. Performing moving performances of his hits “Your Song” and “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” Elton John acknowledged the critical role his fans have played in his career.

“If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be here today,” he remarked. Your constant support has meant the world to me—from purchasing CDs and concert tickets to just being there.”
