After more than 50 years of touring, Elton John has officially finished touring.

The renowned artist performed his final concert on Saturday at the Tele2 Arena in Stockholm, the final stop on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour.

“I’ve had the most incredible career that words can’t describe. How lucky am I to have been able to make music for 52 years?” John, 76, said to the crowd as he finished his concert with “Your Song” and “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road.”The best headphone dealsBest headphones deals

“But you know, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be sitting here talking to you. You bought the singles, albums, CDs and cassettes, but more importantly, you bought the concert tickets and you know how much I enjoy performing live.”

After the show, the five-time Grammy winner thanked his fans for their tireless support over more than five decades.

“My fans have always been there for me. They have been there every step of the way, they have supported me, they have been patient and they have come to every single event,” he said in a statement after the show, according to Consequence.

“Tonight was a beautiful night. I am still processing everything and I think it will be a while before I am finally done touring. I can’t tell you how much I will miss the fans or how humbled I am by their love – it will live on in my heart forever.”

During the event, the “Tiny Dancer” singer received a special message from Chris Martin, who was performing in Sweden with his band Coldplay at the same time.

“Elton, we just want to say, from all of us here, from all the bands and artists you have loved, inspired and supported, we love you so much,” Martin, 46, said in part. “We love you enormously. Happy retirement and we’ll miss you terribly mate.”

John, who has been touring since 1970, took to Instagram on Saturday morning to share a moving message ahead of the highly anticipated event.

“What a journey this tour has been and now we’ve come to the end of it,” he wrote. “Tonight is the last night.”

While John is no longer touring, he and his management have previously said fans will be able to see him in some form in the years to come.

“It’s important to distinguish between Elton retiring from touring and Elton not playing his last public performance for the last time,” John’s husband and manager, David Furnish, told Billboard last November.

“I know he won’t be touring in any form. What you will see is the prospect of a spectacular one-off event or a short residency in a single venue for a limited time.”
