In February 2010, Carlisle announced that the 2010 tour would be billed as the "Farewell Tour",<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.rockstarweekly.com/content/view/1451/149/ |title=The Go-Gos To Announce Farewell Tour In 2010 |website=Rockstarweekly.com |date=June 16, 2009 |access-date=June 20, 2010 }}{{Dead link|date=June 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=no }}</ref> but this tour was canceled when Wiedlin injured her knee while hiking near her home in Northern California, requiring surgery and up to a year of recovery time.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://janewiedlin.com/2010/06/14/message-from-jane-2/ |title=Message from Jane @ Jane Wiedlin.com |website=Janewiedlin.com |access-date=August 19, 2011 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110810013930/http://janewiedlin.com/2010/06/14/message-from-jane-2/ |archive-date=August 10, 2011 }}</ref>

After 2010, the idea of a farewell tour seemed to have been abandoned, with the Go-Go's touring frequently. In 2011, the Go-Go's announced the "Ladies Gone Wild" tour to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the release of ''Beauty and the Beat''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://gogos.com/index.php |title=Go-Go's - Ladies Gone Wild! |website=Gogos.com |access-date=August 19, 2011 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110404220930/http://www.gogos.com/index.php |archive-date=April 4, 2011 }}</ref> They toured the US in 2012, with [[Abby Travis]] subbing for an injured Valentine during the latter part of the tour.

On March 8, 2013, the group's official website said "[[irreconcilable differences]]" had led to the departure of bassist Valentine.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.gogos.com/update-from-go-gos-hq/ |title=Update from Go-Go's HQ |date=March 8, 2013 |access-date=March 18, 2013 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130313082759/http://www.gogos.com/update-from-go-gos-hq/ |archive-date=March 13, 2013 }}</ref> On May 24, Valentine sued her former bandmates for "breach of [[fiduciary duty]] and abuse of control...in an attempt to deprive [her] of her position and interest in the group".<ref name="suit130524">{{cite web | title= Valentine v.

On March 21, 2016, plans for a Go-Go's farewell tour (minus Valentine) were officially announced. A band statement said: "After a 38-year run, we are gearing up for one last blast of a summer tour".<ref>{{cite magazine|title=The Go-Go's Recruit Best Coast for Summer Farewell Tour|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/the-go-gos-recruit-best-coast-for-summer-farewell-tour-20160321|url-status=live|magazine=Rolling Stone|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180105011647/https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/the-go-gos-recruit-best-coast-for-summer-farewell-tour-20160321|archive-date=January 5, 2018|access-date=April 28, 2018}}</ref>

Valentine rejoined the band to perform their first show together as a quintet in six years at New York's [[Bowery Ballroom]] on January 31, 2018, to announce the Broadway dates of their new musical, [[Head over Heels (musical)|''Head Over Heels'']]. The new musical—which premiered at New York's [[Hudson Theatre]] in the summer of 2018—features the band's hits (including "Get Up and Go" and "Lust to Love") as well as Carlisle's solo hits "Mad About You" and "Heaven Is a Place on Earth".<ref>{{cite web|title=WATCH: The Go-Go's Perform Together for the First Time in 6 Years to Kick Off New Musical|url=http://people.com/music/the-go-gos-perform-together-for-first-time-six-years-head-over-heels-exclusive/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180203123255/http://people.com/music/the-go-gos-perform-together-for-first-time-six-years-head-over-heels-exclusive/|archive-date=February 3, 2018|access-date=April 28, 2018|website=People}}</ref> The musical had a preview at the [[Oregon Shakespeare Festival]] in 2015.<ref>{{cite web|title=Head over Heels|url=https://www.osfashland.org/productions/2015-plays/head-over-heels.aspx|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180203064359/https://www.osfashland.org/productions/2015-plays/head-over-heels.aspx|archive-date=February 3, 2018|access-date=February 2, 2018}}</ref>
