The Never Say Never World Tour was the first concert tour by American R&B singer Brandy to support her second studio album, Never Say Never. The tour became Norwood's first world tour, reaching North America, Asia, and Europe. The tour began in Paris, France, on May 23, 1999; However the American leg of the tour concluded earlier than expected on July 6 due to Brandy's obligations of filming Moesha.
Her showcase in Illinois on July 7th was also taped, and aired later that year in December on UPN, entitled "Brandy in Concert: A Special for the Holidays". The June 10th show at the Shibuya Public Hall in Tokyo, Japan; was filmed and aired exclusively on WOWOW. The special was titled, "Brandy: Live in Japan 1999".
