The Seriously, Live! World Tour was a concert tour by the English singer-songwriter Phil Collins, which took place between February 1990 and October 1990, in support of his 1989 album, ...But Seriously. The success of the album and subsequent tour maintained Collins' worldwide popularity as a solo performer.

Throughout the tour, live performances of Collins' songs were recorded for the live album, Serious Hits... Live!. The concert in Berlin on 15 July 1990 was filmed and later released on VHS, Betamax and DVD under the same title as the album.

A pay-per view television special was recorded on the final night in Madison Square Garden in New York City.
