Santana and The Doobie Brothers are joining forces for a major North American co-headlining run in summer 2026, unveiling plans for the Oneness Tour, a multi-city celebration featuring two of classic rock’s most enduring acts.

The tour brings together decades of influential music, pairing Santana’s Latin-rock fusion and virtuosic guitar work with The Doobie Brothers’ harmony-driven blend of rock, soul, and Americana. Both acts are members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and continue to draw multi-generational audiences.

A Summer Tour Across North America

The Oneness Tour is scheduled to run from mid-June through late August 2026, with more than two dozen dates across the United States and Canada. The tour opens June 13 in Tinley Park, Illinois, and concludes August 27 in Shakopee, Minnesota. Stops include major markets such as Los Angeles, Dallas, Toronto, Cincinnati, and Grand Rapids, with performances largely set for outdoor amphitheaters.

Ahead of the joint run, Santana will perform two solo headlining shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado. These dates are part of his 2026 touring schedule but do not feature The Doobie Brothers.

Two Catalogs That Defined Eras

Santana’s career spans more than five decades, from his breakout performance at Woodstock to chart-topping albums like Abraxas and Supernatural. His music blends rock, blues, jazz, and Afro-Latin rhythms, producing enduring songs such as “Black Magic Woman,” “Oye Como Va,” and “Smooth.”

The Doobie Brothers emerged in the early 1970s and became one of the defining American rock bands of the era. Their catalog includes classics like “Listen to the Music,” “Long Train Runnin’,” “China Grove,” and “What a Fool Believes.” The band continues to tour with its core lineup intact and released new material in recent years featuring Michael McDonald, Tom Johnston, Patrick Simmons, and John McFee.

Shared History on the Road

While this marks their first full co-headlining tour together, the two acts are no strangers. The Doobie Brothers previously toured with Santana in 2019, building a strong fan response that helped pave the way for the more balanced partnership represented by the Oneness Tour.

The new tour positions both bands as equal headliners, offering full sets from each night rather than a traditional support arrangement.

Tickets and Availability

Presales for the Oneness Tour begin in mid-February, with general public ticket sales opening February 20 at 10 a.m. local time. VIP packages and premium seating options are also available through participating venues.

A Celebration of Legacy and Connection

The Oneness Tour is framed as a celebration of musical unity, longevity, and shared influence. With two legendary catalogs on the same bill, the summer 2026 run is expected to be one of the season’s most prominent classic rock tours.

For longtime fans and new listeners alike, the tour offers a rare opportunity to experience Santana and The Doobie Brothers together, performing the songs that helped define American rock music across generations.
