Jacky Cheung 60+ Concert Tour Explained

The Jacky Cheung 60+ Concert Tour (Chinese: 張學友60+巡迴演唱會) is an ongoing concert tour by Hong Kong recording artist Jacky Cheung (Chinese: 张学友). The world tour opened on June 9, 2023, at the Cotai Arena in Macau and will continue into 2024 with shows in Hong Kong and Taiwan.^{[1] [2] [3]}

The theme of Cheung's 60+ show is water; embracing his 60s, Cheung is being as fluid as water which, no matter how tough the terrain, always find its way through and continues to flow.^[4]

Production

Background

Goh Kheng Long is the music director and pianist leading an orchestra of 53 musicians playing new orchestral arrangements. The stage design and production is elaborate with the 53 musicians, including string and horn section, appearing on a four-storey structure. Visuals appear on massive LED screens. The show features a dance troupe of 20 members, along with ballet soloists.^{[5] [6]}

Cheung sings newer songs and classic hits from his repertoire in Mandarin and Cantonese including "Three Days Two Nights", "Love Is Eternal", "Breaking Up on Rainy Days", "Forever with You", "Sleep When Sunrise", and "Another 10 Years" and displays his dancing finesse with complex choreographed numbers on "Ooh La La", "Road Hero", and "Double Trouble" and others.^[7]

Ticket sales

After the original six shows scheduled at The Venetian Macao Cotai Arena on the first leg of the FWD Insurance 10th Anniversary Presents: Jacky Cheung 60+ Concert Tour quickly sold out, six more shows were added. Cheung broke records performing 12 shows at The Venetian Macao and selling more than 109,000 tickets.^{[8] [9]}

Cheung broke records again on the second leg of the tour, after adding two concert performances at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, totaling 11 shows, more than any previous artist in a single leg of a concert tour in Singapore.^[10] Originally, 18 shows scheduled at The Hong Kong Coliseum from December 10 to January 4, 2024, quickly sold out. 6 additional shows were added from January 6 to 13, 2024.^[11]

Notes

August 12, 2023 (Day 2 Malaysia)

• 30 minutes before the concert, Cheung experienced a sudden Ménière's attack which included symptoms of dizziness. This caused the start time of his performance to start 8 minutes late. During the talking segment of that day's concert, he revealed that he has had this disease since he was young, with attacks happening around once every year; however, he stated that in his 38-year career performing, never has he had an attack before/during a concert.

August 13, 2023 (Day 3 Malaysia)

• According to Cheung, at around 7 pm that day, he had informed the Organizer that he had symptoms of intense dizziness; however, due to time, the concert that day continued as planned. Cheung made modified changes to his concert including sitting down on the prop car during his 2nd song "Road Heroes". He also acknowledged during the talk segment that the symptoms of his attack was even worse than on August 12, and that he had to close his eyes most of the time to avoid feeling dizzy. During the song "Forever with You", Cheung collapsed due to a weakened left leg. However, he quickly stood back up and continued singing.^[12]

March 7, 2024 (Cancellation Announcement Regarding Three Performances in the Shanghai Station)

• On March 7, 2024, a notice of cancellation was released citing “Mr. Jacky Cheung was unwell and required rest after medical treatment. Taking into account the physical condition of the artists and the premise of public safety, in order to ensure the overall high-level presentation of the performance, we regret to inform you that the three performances on March 8th, 9th, and 10th of Jacky Cheung's 60+ Tour Concert has been cancelled. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience this has caused to all audiences. The relevant ticketing solutions will be announced before 22:00 on March 10 after fully soliciting opinions from all parties. Thank you again for your understanding and understanding.” ^[13]
• On March 8, a statement by Jacky Cheung was released through his record company, Universal Music, addressing the cancellation of the 3 performances as a result of Covid-19. He stated that unlike the rumours spread, he is currently self-isolating at home and resting. ^[14]
