(1984-1985)The Hot Space Tour was a concert tour by the English rock band Queen, supporting their 1982 album "Hot Space". A DVD documenting the band's June 5 1982 concert at the Milton Keynes Super Bowl outside London was released in 2004 as Queen on Fire - Live at the Bowl. Concerts in Japan and Austria were recorded and added to the DVD as extras.

The "Hot Space Tour" was the last tour of the band that took them to United States until the Queen + Paul Rodgers Tour in 2006. It is considered as one of the best and strongest tours with approximately 69 shows and 3 legs.
