Stops on a world tour, say

Answer:

ARENAS

Hint:

Think of large venues where major concerts or sports events are held, often named after sponsors or locations. These spots can host thousands of fans at once.

Explanation:

The clue plays on the double meaning of "stops" as both pauses and venues. On a "world tour," performers make stops at large venues, and "arenas" are common spots for big concerts or events. The word "say" hints that this is just one possible example, reinforcing the idea of major performance locations. It’s a straightforward definition with a slight twist in how "stops" is interpreted.
