Critical reception

The tour has received positive reviews. Patricia Cardenas, from the Miami New Times, called the Miami show "genuinely touching and personal" and "dynamic and poignant". Cardenas also stated how this tour was a way of "giving back to their adoring fans while saluting the band they built into an empire as teenagers on the Disney Channel."[7] Brad Haynes, from radio station Mix 105.1, wrote for Orlando, "The Jonas Brothers have risen once again".[8] Mady Dudley, from Creative Loafing, called the show in Tampa, "unfiltered". Dudley also stated, "A lot has changed, and the brothers are all grown up, but the innocence of their music and their legacy still lives on".[9] John Moser, from the Morning Call, wrote for Philadelphia, complimenting each brother individually. Moser commented Nick's "mature" and "gusto" voice, and Joe's "powerful, distinctive delivery".[10]
