The World Tour 2022[1] was the fourteenth headlining concert tour by American band Maroon 5. It began on March 30, 2022 in Mexico City, and concluded on December 31, 2022 in Thousand Palms, California, comprising 21 concerts.

Controversy

In July 2022, the band announced an Asian leg of the tour. Korean fans responded to this by telling the band that using a rising sun flag in Japan on their World Tour 2022 posters was disrespectful and controversial.[2] Maroon 5 later removed the flag on the original poster and replaced it with a new poster featuring the members of the band on their official website.[3][4]
