Turunen live
Turunen in 2024

This is the list of headlining major concert tours by Finnish singer Tarja Turunen, who is best known as the former lead vocalist for the symphonic metal band Nightwish, and has been in a solo career since 2006.

In 2004, Tarja released an independent single, "Yhden enkelin unelma,[1] and played a few headlining Christmas shows in Europe in late 2005,[2] later launching her solo career in 2006 with a Christmas album called Henkäys ikuisuudesta,[3] followed in 2007 by her first metal album, My Winter Storm, accompanied by the "I Walk Alone" single,[4] playing her first world tour in support of the album. She has kept a routine of album productions and touring, not only as a solo metal artist, with a total of five metal albums so far (the most recent being In the Raw in 2019[5]), but also venturing into diverse styles as classical music territory, which is her official music formation, also often putting out albums and playing live tours regarding Christmas celebrations.[6] (see Ave Maria – En Plein Air from 2015 and Score for a Dark Christmas from 2017 as examples).

Since her first headlining tour in 2006, Turunen has played over 500 concerts around the world, with her most recent tour, Living the Dream, currently ongoing.[2]
