The Show Me Love Tour was the title of two concerts by the Russian pop duo tATu in the Tokyo Dome in Japan, which took place on December 1 and 2, 2003. Although it was only two concerts, the performances were advertised as Show Me Love Tour , as the two singers had previously traveled all over Japan and attended various TV shows and events. This in turn served as a promotion for the two concerts in Tokyo at the end of the year. Despite the half-empty concert hall, it was the two biggest concerts in the history of tATu, which outside of Russia mostly played in discos , in open spaces and in concert halls. Unlike most of their other appearances at that time, tATu sang exclusively live during their concerts in the Tokyo Dome, playback was not used. A subsequently planned Show Me Love World Tour , which was to take the duo to China , Russia and Latin America , among others , was canceled after the Tokyo concerts.

For the concerts in the 43,000-seat Tokyo Dome, 30,000 tickets had been sold by the beginning of November, although according to media reports at least 70,000 would have been necessary to make the concerts profitable. In an interview in 2011 , tATu singer Jelena Katina cited the reason for the low demand that she suddenly left a television program broadcast live on Japanese television, to which tATu had previously been invited. The Japanese audience found this behavior extremely impolite, which is why the duo could not sell out the two concerts completely despite five weeks at the top of the Japanese chart and over 2 million albums sold. In the end, a little more than 50,000 people attended the performances, with the number of spectators evenly distributed over both days.

According to the organizer, the costs for the two concerts amounted to around 500 million yen, which was the equivalent of around 5 million US dollars.

The five 800-inch screens, on which close-ups of the two singers and excerpts from the band's music videos were shown during the concert, were a special technical feature. The screens are among the largest ever used at live concerts.
