The Virgin Tour is the debut concert tour by American singer-songwriter Madonna. The tour supported her first two albums, Madonna and Like a Virgin. Although Madonna gained an international audience, the tour only visited North America.

Madonna later toured these countries during her 1987 Who's That Girl World Tour. In the end several more U.S. dates were added and moved to larger concert venues due to overwhelmingly strong ticket sales. Madonna notably performed every date on the tour with no cancellations.
