))

Parameters

concert_name or concert_tour_name: name of the concert/tour
image: an image link in the following form: MyImage.jpg
image_size: the image size should only be specified if the image is smaller than 220 pixels width. Enter the width in pixels without "px", for example 250.
landscape: set to yes when using wide, short images. The image height (rather than width) will be limited to 200 pixels.
border: inserting yes here will result in a 1px grey border around the image, useful for instances where the image and the background will blend together (such as a concert poster with a white background). If no border is necessary, this parameter should not be used.
alt: alternative text for the image, for visually impaired and other readers who cannot see the image.
caption: a caption for the image
type: type of tour with capital letter; entry will be followed by the word "tour" (ex: World, Free, Benefit, Festival, Promotional, Revival, Reunion, etc.)
artist: artist or organization holding the concert
location: The location(s) of where the tour took place (ex: cities, states, countries, continents). Avoid unnecessarily long lists: If a tour covered multiple continents, or many cities across the same continent, simply name the continents (ex: North America, Europe, Australia). If it covered just a few countries or states, name them (ex: United States, United Kingdom or California, Arizona). Only list specific cities for very short tours covering only a few cities. For "United States" and "United Kingdom", it is preferred that they be abbreviated "U.S." and "UK", but political subdivisions should never be (never "MA" for "Massachusetts", "ON" for "Ontario", etc.). See Notes^[1] for details.
venue: venue of where the concert took place
album: If the tour is associated with a specific album, then name the album. Use a wikilink to link to the album's article.
start_date: the date when the tour began, usually the date of the first performance of the tour. Use ((Start date|YYYY|MM|DD)), replacing YYYY with the year, MM with the numerical month, and DD with the day (ex: ((Start date|2010|08|13))).
end_date: the date when the tour ended, usually the date of the final performance of the tour. Use ((End date|YYYY|MM|DD)).
number_of_legs: some tours have multiple "legs", often separated by gaps of time (ex: a West coast leg and an East coast leg, or a North American leg and a European leg). If so, enter the number of legs. If the tour consisted of one continuous string of dates, leave this field blank.
number_of_shows: the total number of shows on the entire tour.
website or URL: the single web address for the tour's primary official website. Use ((URL)) as ((URL|example.com)).
budget: the budget for the tour, if known. Use templates to link to specific currencies, for example ((US$))
gross: the total gross revenue for the tour, if known
last_concert or last_tour: the artist or organization's previous concert, followed by a <br /> and the concert's year in parenthesis (type N/A if none)
this_concert or this_tour: the artist or organization concert in which the infobox is about in bold text, followed by a <br /> and the concert's year in parenthesis
next_concert or next_tour: the artist or organization's next concert, followed by a <br /> and the concert's year in parenthesis (type ... if a future tour may occur; type N/A if there will be no future tour)
misc1..4: ((Extra tour chronology)) may be used here for tours featuring various artists

Notes

^ As per RfC "Naming countries in infoboxes": When identifying a location, city or region in the United States or United Kingdom, the preferred approach is to use the country abbreviations allowed by MOS:ACRO, such as "Portsmouth, New Hampshire, U.S." and "Cardiff, Wales, UK", rather than spelling out the full country name. Avoid using abbreviations for states or provinces in all nations. New Hampshire rather than NH, New South Wales rather than NSW, or British Columbia rather than BC (see MOS:POSTABBR). Cities such as New York City and London may be rendered as "New York City, U.S." and "London, UK" or simply "New York City" and "London". Also, these should not be linked when the context makes it clear (see MOS:OVERLINK). If only the country name is included, it may be written out in full.
