Looking for Sting 2026 tour dates quickly? The full North American schedule is listed below, including cities, venues, and major multi-night stops.

Sting is giving North American fans plenty of reasons to celebrate in 2026. The legendary artist has unveiled a dramatically expanded slate of North American tour dates stretching from May through late November, transforming what was already one of the year’s most anticipated concert itineraries into a sprawling, continent-wide run that touches down in more than 20 markets.

The expanded routing, now listed on the artist’s official website, reveals two distinct North American legs. The first kicks off May 6 at the Hard Rock in Hollywood, Florida, before winding through the South and Southeast with stops in Durant, Oklahoma; Dallas and Austin, Texas; Houston; Atlanta; Savannah, Georgia; and Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina. A three-night stand at the iconic Wolf Trap in Vienna, Virginia — May 21 through 23 — anchors the spring run before a final date in Richmond on May 25.

But the crown jewel of the 2026 itinerary may be what comes next: a multi-performance residency at New York City’s Metropolitan Opera House from June 9 through 14, including matinee and evening performances. The pairing of Sting — whose catalog bridges rock, jazz, and classical influences — with one of the world’s most storied performance halls feels like a natural fit, and the extended stay signals extraordinary demand.

Following a summer of European festival appearances — from Umbria Jazz in Italy to UNTOLD Festival in Romania — Sting returns to North America in October for a fall theater run that underscores the intimate, stripped-back approach that has defined his recent live work. The October-November leg opens at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver on October 5 and 6, moves to Seattle’s Benaroya Hall, then threads through Minneapolis, Rockford, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Montreal, Akron, and Cincinnati.

The stretch culminates with a six-night residency at the Brooklyn Paramount from November 11 through 18 — another bold multi-night commitment at a venue that has quickly become one of New York’s premier live music rooms — followed by a closing date at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa on November 24.

The breadth of the 2026 schedule is remarkable by any standard and speaks to Sting’s enduring pull as a live performer at age 74. Mixing outdoor amphitheaters, intimate theaters, casino stages, and prestige concert halls, the routing seems designed to offer fans a range of experiences rather than a single templated arena show. It’s a strategy that has served the artist well since he stepped away from his Las Vegas residency and returned to the road with renewed purpose.

Fan club presales for the spring and fall North American dates are active, with general public on-sales following. Given the pace at which the Met Opera and Brooklyn Paramount dates are moving, fans are advised not to wait.
