Greatest Hits Live! (also known as the Finest Selection Tour) was the fourth and final headlining concert tour by English-Irish girl group The Saturdays. It was their first tour in three years, launched in support of their greatest hits album, Finest Selection: The Greatest Hits.

Background

Just a few months after releasing their fourth studio album Living for the Weekend (2013), the group announced they would release a Greatest Hits album and tour in support for the album.^[1] The tour was the group's first in three years. The tour played a mixture of theatres and arenas with most dates sold out at full capacity. The largest attendance for a single show was Wembley Arena, London with almost 10,000 in attendance. During the Glasgow show, Frankie Bridge had a pre-recorded segment to show she was competing on the twelfth season of Strictly Come Dancing that would start airing three days after the tour completed.^[2]
