Source-derived summary

The Maroon V Tour (also known as M5 On the Road Tour) was the tenth headlining concert tour by American band Maroon 5 in support of their fifth studio album V (2014) (pronounced: "five"). The tour began on February 16, 2015, in Dallas and concluded on May 12, 2018, in Zapopan, Mexico, comprising 137 concerts.

Background and development

The tour was announced in May 2014. The band stated that, through a contract with Live Nation, they are set to embark on a world tour in late 2014 through to early 2015 in support of the new album. In June, the band posted a photo on their official Instagram account asking fans where they should perform "with a tour coming soon".

Also through Instagram, in August the band revealed with a series of photos the states where they will bring the tour.

All the dates for North America and Europe were announced on September 2, 2014, and due to the high demand, second shows as well as brand new dates were later announced by the band.

During 2015, Maroon 5 announced shows in Asia, Oceania, Mexico and South America, as well as a second leg in North America which is scheduled to take place in cities where they have not performed during the first.

In early 2016, new European shows were added. In September 2016, Maroon 5 confirmed the seven dates of the North American leg from September and October 2016, was postponed until February and March 2017.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Maroon V Tour” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Maroon, Tour and fifth provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 27, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q18157573. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2014, 2015, 2018 and 2016.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
