Take That Live 2015 (also known as the III Tour) was the ninth concert tour by British band Take That, in support of their seventh studio album III. The shows were announced on 8 November 2014. The demand for the tour led to all dates selling out as soon as they went on sale, with some dates selling out in pre-sale alone. Due to this demand, Take That announced extra dates to their tour. On 26 January 2015, a European leg of the tour was announced. It is their first concert tour since the Progress Live tour in 2011 and the first to feature the band as a trio following the departures of Jason Orange and Robbie Williams.

The tour has received critical acclaim with many saying it is the band's most visually spectacular show to date. The tour opened in Glasgow at The SSE Hydro. The Pollstar 2015 Mid-Year Top 100 Worldwide Tour list revealed the tour as the 6th highest grosser, with a total of $60.8 million from 42 shows, and a total of 558,156 in attendance.

    On 12 May 2015, it was revealed that The O2, London show on 19 June would be recorded and made into a concert film. A one-minute and nine second trailer for the film was released on the groups YouTube channel. The trailer consisted of footage from the tour at earlier dates mixed with behind the scenes footage of Progress Live. The group will release the recorded footage on DVD/Blu-ray at some point in 2015. This was confirmed by Barlow on Twitter. On 15 October 2015, it was announced that a DVD of the show will be released alongside an updated edition of III. Strangely no Blu-ray release has yet to be announced, despite some tracks being shown in HD on a BBC Television special about the tour.
