The Between the Earth and the Stars Live Tour was a concert tour by Welsh singer Bonnie Tyler, launched in support of her seventeenth studio album Between the Earth and the Stars (2019). It began on 4 April 2019 in Munich, and concluded on 1 June 2019 at the W-Festival in Frankfurt, Germany, consisting of 23 shows.

Critics praised Tyler for her energetic performances and effective use of stage lights.
