The Inedito World Tour was the sixth world tour by Italian singer Laura Pausini, in support of her eleventh studio album, Inedito / Inédito. It was planned to visit America, Europe, and Australia but ended on 15 September 2012, after Pausini announced she was pregnant. Due to the announcement, the tour was cut short, and plans for a second American leg, a second European leg, and the tour's debut in Australia were cancelled.

Background information

On 30 December 2010, Pausini announced her eleventh studio album, Inedito / Inédito, which was set to be released in both Italian and Spanish on 11 November 2011. The title and tracklist of the album were revealed on Pausini's website on 10 September 2011. The first single from the album, "Benvenuto" / "Bienvenido," was released on 12 September 2011. The album was released on 11 November 2011, after which Pausini embarked on her sixth world tour, starting in Italy during the last two weeks of December. The tour then continued in South America and Europe during the first half of 2012, with plans to return to South America later in 2012.

During the 18 March 2012 show, the music video for the song "Mi Tengo" debuted, playing on the videowall during the performance.

Pausini confirmed that the Spanish-language DVD of the tour was recorded on 20 April 2012 in Madrid.

About the tour

To promote the album, Pausini embarked on a world tour, starting with 11 shows in Italy in late December 2011. The tour reached South America in January–February 2012, returning to countries like Venezuela, where she had performed only once 14 years earlier during the World Wide Tour in 1997. The European leg of the tour took place from March to May 2012. According to Pausini, it was intended to be one of her largest world tours ever, expected to be more extensive than her previous World Tour 2009.

The stage, where classic Italian production blends with intense rock aggression, changes continuously throughout the concert, with each song highlighted by different effects. For the first time, Laura was accompanied by a dance group consisting of six dancers, performing choreographies by world-renowned choreographer Nikos Lagousakos. The show also featured video projections, special effects never before seen in Italy, and video mapping, making it an exceptional global event and undoubtedly the most sophisticated, poetic, and all-encompassing tour ever staged by an Italian artist. The opening was marked by gold, followed by red for "passion," and then the stage suddenly transformed into an explosion of nature. A starry night served as the backdrop for a 3D moon, bringing the show to a close with a big surprise.

Costumes, accessories, videos, and sets—every single element—were tailor-made for this special occasion by an international team of top-level quality and experience. The collaboration with British architect Mark Fisher, set designer for Pink Floyd and U2, and creator of one-of-a-kind sets for Cirque du Soleil, marked his first-ever contribution to an Italian production. The team also included Patrick Woodroffe, lighting designer for leading pop and rock artists such as Bob Dylan, AC/DC, Depeche Mode, and the Rolling Stones, and who had recently worked on This Is It, Michael Jackson's last, unfinished show.

During the Invece No segment of the show, Pausini is lifted high and sings the song in a manner similar to her performance at the Latin Grammy Awards of 2009, wearing a skirt specially designed for her by the English fashion brand CuteCircuit. Additionally, in Tra te e il mare, a moon is raised above the spectators' heads. In venues with limited stage space, some props were removed; for example, the performances in Brazil featured no lifting, and in Mexico City, there was neither lifting nor the moon.

Currently, all dates up to 14 February 2012 were sold out.

Broadcast and recordings

To promote both the album and the tour, Pausini appeared on many TV shows and performed several of the songs featured in the tour. This included Che tempo che fa, where she sang "Bastava" and "Troppo tempo," as well as the Chiambretti Sunday Show on 9 November 2011.

Pausini recently confirmed that the DVDs in Italian and Spanish were recorded, respectively, in Bologna on 17 April 2012 and in Madrid on 20 April. She also stated that there would not be many concerts during the winter due to her needing to mix and finalize both DVDs. On Pausini's official Facebook page, she confirmed that the DVDs would be released at the end of 2012. On 27 November 2012, the CD+DVD Inedito Special Edition was released in both Spanish and Italian.

On 15 September 2012, alongside the news of her pregnancy, Pausini confirmed that both DVDs would be released on 27 November 2012 and announced that the final single from the album Inedito would be "Celeste."

The bilingual performance of the song "Resta in Ascolto/Escucha Atento," which took place in London during the tour, was recorded professionally. This live audio was included in both versions of the album 20 – The Greatest Hits and its Spanish-language counterpart, 20 – Grandes Exitos, which Pausini released a year after the conclusion of the world tour.

Accident

In March, Laura returned to Italy, starting in Ancona, but the tour was suspended due to an incident that occurred on 5 March 2012 at the PalaCalafiore in Reggio Calabria. Around 2 a.m., a structural failure caused the metal structure above the stage to collapse and fall on several workers who were fixing the aerial lighting at the time. Matthew Armellini, a 31-year-old rigger from Rome, was killed instantly. Two other workers were injured, but their injuries were not serious, and they were transported to nearby hospitals for treatment, suffering various fractures and bruises.

The stage being set up was of medium size, and the structure had been used on previous occasions without any issues. The Prosecutor's Office of Reggio Calabria initiated an investigation and ordered the seizure of the entire structure. After the emergency phase, the fire department began surveying the scene to determine the dynamics and causes of the accident. A similar incident occurred on 12 December 2011 during Jovanotti's Ora 2011–2012 Tour at PalaTrieste in Trieste.

After two weeks of suspension out of respect for the mourning, the tour resumed in Florence and continued to Caserta, Genoa, Turin, Treviso, and Acireale.
