The Justice World Tour (formerly known as the Changes Tour and also known as the Justin Bieber World Tour 2021) was the fourth (4th) concert tour by Justin Bieber, in promotions of his sixth studio album. The tour was set to promote his previous album, Changes, and begin on May 14, 2020, in Seattle, but the tour was postponed amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Every date was rescheduled twice and the Justice World Tour officially began on February 18, 2022, in San Diego, but concluded on September 4, 2022, in Rio de Janeiro. After it was announced that the remaining dates of the tour would be postponed, Bieber's team formally announced that they would be cancelled.
Background[]

On December 20, Bieber tweeted that something was going to happen on the December 24, December 31, 2019, as well as on January 3 and 4, 2020.

Jaden and Kehlani were originally meant to support the tour as opening acts, but it was announced on Bieber's official website via the touring section that they would no longer be playing on the tour due to new opening act support being added later on.
Justin Bieber will be backed by Canadian Psychedelic Rock band Rhythm Light Orchestra (occasionally known as The Storm) for the upcoming tour.
On March 6, 2020, several stadium dates were downsized to arena dates, with shows moved to arena venues adjacent to the stadiums, which cited "unforeseen circumstances" from Bieber's team.
On April 1, 2020, it was announced that the tour will be postponed amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Finally on November 15, 2021, the dates of the rest of the world were announced, including festivals and Jaden, Harry Hudson, TEO and Eddie Benjamin as opening acts of the world tour.
Intro[]
Life is complicated, unpredictable, scary, difficult. But it's also wonderful, beautiful, exciting, and breathtaking. Sometimes it can be hard, hard to see the wonder and the beauty that's all around me, because I'm so blinded by my problem that's in front of me. Sometimes I'm clouded by fear or shame. Other times I'm clouded by jealousy or insecurity. I've tried to be better, but I keep falling short. I try to be stronger, but there's just those days when I'm weak. I've let go of trying harder and doing better. I trust that God's in control and that He loves me for who I am, and where I am in my life right now. I hold on to Jesus, the sinless one who gave His life so that I can truly live in freedom. You don't have to believe what I believe to belong here. We're all in this together, but if my journey can help you, that's all I want. I love you, people.

Visuals[]
Scissor Films partnered with Cole Bennett to create Justin Bieber's visuals for his Justice World Tour, with various environments custom created in Unreal Engine, they were able to their bring virtual production technology to a giant stage where Justin Bieber shot his tour opener in under a day.
Justin’s team approached us with their storyboards, and from those, we were able to start planning our work around their specific vision. In order to complete such an ambitious task we previs’d every shot down to the detail. From the camera moves: to lighting, down to every asset. The only way for us to accomplish such heavy CG sequences was to shoot every scene in Virtual Production.
