The Party's Just Begun Tour was the second tour by American girl group the Cheetah Girls. It supported the soundtrack to their second film, The Cheetah Girls 2. The tour started on September 15, 2006, in Seattle and ended on March 4, 2007, in Houston. The concerts in Anaheim and San Diego were recorded and released as In Concert: The Party's Just Begun Tour.

Background

The tour was originally going to be 40 cities across the United States, as stated by Sabrina Bryan on Live with Regis and Kelly, then 58 cities, but the final date transition was an 86 date tour mainly visiting the United States with the exception of a show in Puerto Rico and two cities in Canada. For the final date on the tour the Cheetah Girls performed at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo with Miley Cyrus as the opening act. The show sold 73,291 tickets, becoming one of the biggest concerts in the event's history.

The storyline of this show was that Dr. Coolcatz (played by Mitchel Musso) sends the girls on a mission to gather the ingredients for "growl power" – dreams, love, and friendship. The Cheetah Girls find the ingredients by singing and dancing to their crowds.

The setlist primarily includes songs from The Cheetah Girls 2 soundtrack as well as the first Cheetah Girls soundtrack. Also included was an exclusive track, "Falling for You", an unreleased song by Bailon and Williams' other girl group 3LW.
