Nearly four decades after the night it was recorded, one of pop’s legendary tours is finally coming to record. The Faith Tour, an 18-track live album from George Michael Entertainment and Sony Music Entertainment, arrives globally on November 6, 2026 — the first official release of these recordings.
The album captures Michael at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy in 1988, during his first solo world tour. He was just 24, and the Faith Tour spanned 109 concerts across 16 countries — the defining run of his post-WHAM! career. The tracklist includes live versions of “Faith,” “Father Figure,” “One More Try,” “Monkey,” “I Want Your Sex” and “Careless Whisper,” plus WHAM! classics “Everything She Wants” and “I’m Your Man.”
Collectors are well served. Alongside the standard 18-track edition come vinyl, picture disc, CD and audio Blu-ray versions, plus a deluxe box set with the full concert across three LPs and two CDs and a 136-page book of unseen tour photos. The recordings were mixed by Chris Porter and David Austin and mastered by John Webber.
A companion concert film, George Michael: The Faith Tour, assembled from rediscovered 35mm footage and narrated with an unheard interview, premiered at London’s BFI IMAX on October 27. It opens in UK cinemas on November 6, with North American cinemas following on December 11.
For fans, the George Michael Faith Tour album is the closest thing to a time machine — a 24-year-old superstar at the height of his powers, preserved as it happened.
