Neighbours farewell tour provides new update for fans after show return news

The UK tour has a new name.

The show’s confirmation of a name change is the latest news from the Neighbours UK farewell tour.

The tour said at the time that the drama will still be going on – albeit it could require a new name – when it was revealed last week that it would be returning.

In light of the subsequent change in circumstances, the show has confirmed that its tour will now be known as The Celebration Tour.

The Farewell Tour is being renamed to Neighbours – The Celebration Tour, which perfectly captures what it was always intended to be: a celebration of Neighbours past, present, and FUTURE, they tweeted. “Following the exciting news that the show is returning, we’re rebranding the Farewell Tour (for the third time!)

Neighbours was cancelled by Channel 5 earlier this year, and its final episode aired over the summer. It was nevertheless confirmed last week that it would be making a comeback on Amazon Freevee.

It has since emerged that hundreds of episodes are in the pipeline, with a source telling Digital Spy: “The plan is for Neighbours to keep its format as a high-volume daily soap opera, so it’ll still be the show that fans know and love.

“Plans are being made for two new seasons, which will run for 200 episodes each. It’s an incredible result for fans, who thought they’d seen the last of the show when the finale aired in July.

“The logic for Freevee is that daily episode drops will keep fans checking back on the streaming service and engage with other content available.”
