For You was the fourth concert tour by American singer-songwriter Monica Vinco, launched in support of her fifth studio album You (2021). Following the death of her mother and the cancellation of her Daddy Issues World Tour, Vinco went into a deep depression and scrapped plans to continue the tour into 2020. Throughout 2020 and 2021, Vinco occupied herself with other projects but was still interested in touring again. The singer released the initial tour dates alongside the announcement of You on September 19, 2021.
Originally, the tour was planned to be very short, only visiting the fourteen cancelled shows of the previous one. However, Capitol Records, Vinco's then-label, urged her to expand the tour, adding several dates throughout late 2021. By its conclusion, For You ran for forty dates, commencing in Auckland on April 25, 2022, and ending in Barcelona on July 11.
Critics gave For You generally positive reviews, praising the visuals and dynamic themes, as well as Vinco’s stage and vocal performances. However, the tour was plagued by conservative backlash towards the concert's sexual aspects and social media accusations of lip synching at Vinco. It was also commercially successful, grossing $83 million from a sold-out attendance of 845,316. The July 3 show in Nanterre, France, was filmed by Jonas Åkerlund for a concert film—entitled Pour Toi— released on March 23, 2023, on American streaming network Paramount+. A live album was released five years later, on December 25, 2028.
Background and development[edit]
On the September 29, the venue for the May 15 show in San Juan was upgraded from Robert Clemente Coliseum to José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum, with additional shows in Nashville and Kansas City being announced. A second show in San Juan was added due to high demand on October 3. Capitol Records, Vinco's then-label, urged her to expand the tour, resulting in seventeen North American shows and eight European shows being added on October 23, 2021.
