The tour covered 118 dates and visited North America, England, Australia, and Japan, running from April 23, 2009, to July 10, 2010. Kellie Pickler, Gloriana, and Justin Bieber were supporting acts. The set list consisted of songs mostly from Fearless and some from Taylor Swift. The song "You're Not Sorry" was performed as a medley with excerpts from Justin Timberlake's "What Goes Around... Comes Around" (2006). For the 2010 shows, Swift added the soundtrack single "Today Was a Fairytale" to the set list.
Music and media critics generally praised Swift's stage presence, showmanship, and interactions with her audience, although some thought that she did not possess strong live vocals. Upon completion, the Fearless Tour drew 1.2 million people in attendance and grossed $66.5 million. Several shows were recorded and released for a concert series, Journey to Fearless, which aired on The Hub from October 22 to 24, 2010. Journey to Fearless was later released on DVD and Blu-ray in October 2011.
