The Harem World Tour was a 2004 concert tour by English soprano singer Sarah Brightman following the release of the Harem album. The Harem tour grossed $60 million and sold 800,000 tickets, $15 million and 225,000 sales of which came from the North American leg. The tour brought Brightman to perform in 4 continents, 28 countries in 119 venues.
In May 2003 Sarah released her Middle East oriented album Harem. To promote it and audiovisual project "Harem - A Desert Fantasy" Brightman together with Clear Channel Entertainment decided to create a new tour, that will be differ from previous La Luna World Tour. Promoters wanted to turn show from theater audiences to a more arena-like. Promotion for the tour included lots of billboards and ads in theatrs and corrsponding media because some of Sarah's fans "haven't experienced arena shows very well".
The concert in Paradise, Nevada on March 13th was recorded and then made available commercially in CD and DVD entitled The Harem World Tour: Live from Las Vegas.
