Elton John extended his "farewell" tour into summer 2020, announcing a new crop of concerts for the U.S. and Canada. The upcoming North American leg of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road trek now launches March 28 in Toronto and concludes July 8 in Kansas City, Mo.

You can see the new dates below.

The 24 new shows go on sale Nov. 22 at 10AM local time. American Express card holders can access a pre-sale that begins Nov. 14 at 10AM local time and ends Nov. 18 at 10PM local time. Full details are available at John's website.

John announced the massive, multi-year tour in January 2018, noting his plans to retire from the road after its conclusion. "My priorities have changed in life," he told host Anderson Cooper during a news conference. "But we had children and that changed our lives. ... My priorities now are my family and my husband. I thought the time is right to say thank you to all of my fans and then to say goodbye. That doesn't mean I won't be creative, but I'm not gonna travel anymore."

These newly announced shows will "complete" the tour's second year, Variety reports. The singer-songwriter plans to finish the lengthy run in 2021.

John — who recently released his autobiography, Me — is currently on the home stretch of a North American leg that continues Nov. 13 in Pittsburgh and carries through Nov. 16 in Long Island. Following that leg, he'll begin a lengthy stretch in Australia and New Zealand that lasts until early March.
