The band's longest break in touring came from late 2004 through late 2008. Touring has tended to focus on the UK and the rest of Europe, North America and Japan, but the band have also played other parts of the world, notably Australia.

A Yes consisting of Chris Squire, Steve Howe, Alan White, Trevor Rabin and Geoff Downes (with Trevor Horn on backing vocals) appeared as one of several acts at the November 2004 "Produced By Trevor Horn: A Concert For The Prince's Trust" at Wembley Arena in London. They performed "Cinema" and "Owner of a Lonely Heart".
In 2007, the band planned summer 2008 dates as the Close to the Edge and Back tour, with Jon Anderson, Chris Squire, Steve Howe and Alan White being joined by Oliver Wakeman on keyboards, as a replacement for (as suggested by) his father, Rick Wakeman. However, Anderson suffered acute respiratory failure before the tour, which had to be cancelled. With Anderson out of action recuperating, Squire, Howe and White went on tour with Oliver Wakeman and replacement vocalist Benoît David (from Canadian band Mystery).
An initial tour leg started on 12 February 2009 was cut short when Squire suffered a medical emergency.
Oliver Wakeman on keyboards up to May 2011; Geoff Downes took over from July 2011 onwards. Jon Davison took over on vocals for 2012 onwards.
During the Three Album Tour, Yes were playing three classic albums a night: The Yes Album, Close to the Edge and Going for the One in full. Only five shows performed in casinos (*) featured only two albums, The Yes Album and Close to the Edge (followed by "Roundabout" as the encore track), due to venue time restrictions. The two shows performed during the "Cruise to the Edge" festival also featured only two albums but not the same couple of albums and not the same encore track. It was announced on Billy Sherwood's Facebook page that a DVD of the Three Album Tour was being made and that Sherwood was mixing it. The resulting album, entitled Like It Is: Yes at the Bristol Hippodrome, included The Yes Album and Going for the One and excluded the Close to the Edge album.
