The Beatles concert chronology |
The Beatles' 1965 tour of the United Kingdom was a concert tour that took place between 3 and 12 December 1965, comprising 18 shows[1] at nine venues across England, Scotland and Wales.[2] It coincided with the release of the Beatles' studio album Rubber Soul and their double A-side single "Day Tripper" / "We Can Work It Out", and was the final UK tour undertaken by the band.[3] Weary of Beatlemania, the group conceded to do the tour but refused to also perform a season of Christmas concerts[4][5] as they had done over the 1963–64 and 1964–65 Christmas seasons.[6]
