Sting Adds Fall 2026 Dates To “STING 3.0” North American Tour
Following a series of sold-out shows and rave reviews across Europe, North America, Asia, Africa, South America, and beyond, 17-time GRAMMY Award winner STING has announced a new fall leg of his acclaimed “STING 3.0” Tour across North America, presented by the Cherrytree Music Company and Live Nation.
Accompanied by longtime guitarist and collaborator Dominic Miller and dynamic drummer Chris Maas (Mumford & Sons, Maggie Rogers), the trio delivers a powerful and intimate concert experience, reinterpreting Sting’s most celebrated songs and deep cuts through the lens of a tight three-piece arrangement.
The newly announced 2026 dates will begin in Vancouver, BC, with a two-night run at Queen Elizabeth Theatre on October 5th and 6th before continuing through Seattle, Minneapolis, Rockford, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Montreal, Akron, Cincinnati, Wallingford, Brooklyn, and Tampa, with performances in Nashville and Pittsburgh to be announced soon. These additional shows include a special six-night mini residency with special guest Fiction Plane at the historic Brooklyn Paramount, the newly reopened 1928 venue that once hosted legendary artists like Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, and Miles Davis. Full itinerary and ticketing information is included below.
A groundbreaking artist both as a solo performer and as the frontman/bassist and principal songwriter for The Police, Sting continues to redefine and expand his musical horizons. Under the management of Martin Kierszenbaum/Cherrytree Music Company, his innovative spirit remains central to the “STING 3.0” Tour, which spotlights new creative interpretations of his timeless catalog and inspired his latest single, “I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)” — mixed by four-time GRAMMY Award-winning engineer Robert Orton, released on Cherrytree Music Company/Interscope Records. Additionally, a new live album, STING 3.0 LIVE, is now available digitally, on CD and on 180g vinyl. Also recorded on the “STING 3.0” Tour, STING 3.0 LIVE is a collection of his greatest hits, including “Be Still My Beating Heart,” which has never-before been released as a live version. The 10-song digital album also features a live recording of “Fragile,” Sting’s 1987 single, which was recently covered by a children’s choir in an episode of the Netflix miniseries Adolescence.
Members of Sting’s Fan Club will have first access to tickets beginning Tuesday, March 3 at sting.com, with additional presales throughout the week. The general on sale will begin Friday, March 6 at 10AM local time on sting.com. Tickets for all other previously announced “STING 3.0” tour dates are available now.

Luke Combs Announces 12 New Stadium Shows for 2027 ‘My Kinda Saturday Night Tour’
Luke Combs is extending his My Kinda Saturday Night Tour into 2027, announcing 12 new stadium shows across the United States.
The new dates continue the tour that Combs launched in 2026, though fans can expect a different lineup of opening acts. Treaty Oak Revival, Avery Anna, Shenandoah and Wyatt McCubbin will join Combs at various stops throughout the 2027 run.
The tour takes its name from “My Kinda Saturday Night,” a song from Combs’ latest album, The Way I Am. The singer recently wrapped the 2026 leg with three sold-out performances at London’s Wembley Stadium.
For now, the 12 newly announced stadium concerts are the only dates listed on Combs’ official tour calendar. Tickets for all 12 shows go on sale August 21.
The announcement had been teased throughout the week, with several venues revealing details before Combs officially announced the dates on Thursday morning.
The limited schedule reflects a shift in how Combs is approaching life on the road. With three young children — ages four, nearly three and six months — the singer has spoken about putting more time aside for his family. The days of spending most of the week away from home may be becoming less common for the country star.
That does not mean Combs is stepping away from the stage. Every 2027 date announced so far is scheduled at a football stadium with a capacity of at least 60,000 people.
The strategy is similar to one adopted by several major country artists in recent years, including Morgan Wallen: fewer shows in much larger venues. Rather than spending months on the road playing arenas and smaller venues, Combs can reach a large audience with a limited number of performances.
For fans, that makes each stop a bigger event. For Combs, it offers a way to keep touring while spending more time at home with his family.
Tickets go on sale August 21.
Tour Dates for Luke Combs 2027 ‘My Kinda Saturday Night Tour’:
April 3 — Arlington, Texas @ AT&T Stadium
April 10 — Minneapolis, Minn. @ U.S. Bank Stadium
April 17 — Detroit, Mich. @ Ford Field
April 24 — Philadelphia, Pa. @ Lincoln Financial Field
May 1 — Foxborough, Mass. @ Gillette Stadium
May 8 — Pittsburgh, Pa. @ Acrisure Stadium
May 15 — Kansas City, Mo. @ Arrowhead Stadium
May 29 — Edmonton, Alb. Canada @ Commonwealth Stadium
June 5 — Vancouver, B.C. Canada @ BC Place
June 12 — Boise, Idaho @ Albertsons Stadium
June 19 — Denver, Colo. @ Empower Field at Mile High
June 26 — San Diego, Calif. @ Petco Park
