THE ARTIST, ON THE ROAD
The story behind this itinerary
This Australian chapter of HIStory World Tour follows the published concert dates, rather than press appearances or travel days.
Several shows share the same city. The map groups those locations while the timeline keeps the nights separate.
Attendance estimates and worldwide grosses have not been used to invent per-show revenue.

PROVENANCE
Where this record comes from
All nine Australian dates and venue identities agree between ACTD and MJJSTREET after normalising SCG, MCG and Burswood Dome aliases. Indexed official records additionally corroborate 14, 16, 19, 24, 26 and 30 November. Live official URLs currently return 404 to direct requests; that access failure is not evidence of cancellation.
