The Greatest Hits World Tour is the seventh concert world tour by the Italian singer Laura Pausini, which promoted her new compilation album, 20 – The Greatest Hits, that was released on 12 November 2013. The tour began with a show in Pesaro on 5 December 2013 and ended in 2015. In Spanish-speaking countries, the tour was renamed "Grandes Exitos Gira Mundial".
In February 2014, Pausini confirmed on her official site that the tour would be prolonged and that more shows would happen after the 20 originally planned. This new set of concerts includes two performances in Australia and one performance in Russia, marking the first time Pausini performs in such countries.
On 10 June 2014, Pausini postponed her two Australian shows 'due to unforeseen technical problems and production issues'. The Melbourne concert scheduled for 12 June 2014 at Rod Laver Arena would now take place on 13 February 2014 at a smaller venue, Margaret Court Arena. The 14 June, Sydney show was announced for 14 February 2015.
On 26 February 2013, in order to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of her career, Pausini released a digital single including the original versions in Italian, Spanish and English of the song which launched her career in 1993, "La solitudine". The track was launched as a limited-edition single, available for purchase for a week only. Later during the same year, she confirmed that a greatest hits album would be released for the same purpose by December 2013.
On 1 June 2013 Pausini took part in the concert Chime for Change in London, supporting the global campaign of the same name for girls' and women's empowerment. Pausini performed the songs "Io canto" and "It's Not Goodbye". During the same year, she appeared as a featured artist on the track "Sonríe (Smile)", included in American singer Gloria Estefan's album The Standards. A new world tour was also confirmed by Pausini through her official website. Starting from December 2013, Pausini would promote her greatest hits album with concerts in her native Italy, as well as in other European countries, in Latin America, in the United States and in Canada. The tour also includes a performance during the Viña del Mar International Song Festival in Chile.
