Bette Midler concert chronology

The Divine Intervention Tour was the tenth concert tour by American singer, songwriter, actress, comedian, and film producer Bette Midler. The tour started on May 8, 2015, in Hollywood, Florida, and concluded on July 19, 2015, in London, England. The tour traveled through North America, specifically the United States and Canada, and Europe, specifically parts of England and Scotland.

This was Midler's first global tour in over a decade, and promoted her October 2014 album It is the Girls![1]

David Warner of Creative Loafing Tampa said of the Tampa show, "...the sass, the sashay, the big sound and the unabashed emotion were all in such top form that you couldn’t help but marvel: This woman's how old?[2]
