Elvis on Tour is a 1972 American concert film starring Elvis Presley during his fifteen-city spring tour earlier that year. It was written, produced, directed by Pierre Adidge and Robert Abel and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM).

Following his return to live performances and touring after his acting career, Presley starred in the documentary Elvis: That's the Way It Is with MGM in 1970. Presley's manager, Colonel Tom Parker, then arranged a deal for another documentary film with the studio by early 1972. MGM hired Abel and Adidge, who previously documented Joe Cocker's 1970 tour of the United States. The crew filmed four Presley shows that were later intertwined with interviews. Assisted by Martin Scorsese, it featured the use of split screens.

The film was released on November 1, 1972. While it opened to mixed reviews, it became a box-office success. In 1973, Elvis on Tour won the award for Best Documentary Film at the 30th Golden Globe Awards.

Previously unreleased footage from Elvis on Tour is featured in the 2025 documentary, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert.

Elvis Presley's 1972 concert was filmed and documented by Baz Luhrmann as part of the preparation for his biopic on the King. Unreleased footage of this concert, along with other archives, has been restored and digitized to create the documentary "EPiC." This documentary offers a spectacular immersion into Elvis's life and music, featuring unseen performances and flashbacks through archives illustrating his youth and the major moments of his career.
