Keith Urban has officially unveiled the full schedule for his 2026 World Tour, a sprawling 32-date run spanning North America, Europe, and Australia. The tour, building on the momentum of his acclaimed 2025 “High and Alive” World Tour and supporting his latest album High, promises high-energy performances, signature guitar mastery, and a setlist blending timeless hits with fresh material. With dates kicking off in early March and extending through the summer and beyond, this global trek underscores Urban’s enduring appeal as one of country music’s most dynamic live acts.
The announcement, shared via Urban’s official website and social channels, highlights a mix of headline arena shows, major festival appearances, and select intimate venues. North America dominates the early slate, with stops in key markets across the U.S. and Canada. Europe follows with a handful of arena dates, and Australia rounds out the run later in the year. The 32-date total reflects a strategic balance: heavy festival play in the summer months, targeted headline gigs, and a focus on fan-favorite regions.
The tour opens in March 2026 with a residency-style run in Las Vegas at the Fontainebleau (part of his ongoing “Keith Urban’s HIGH” Vegas shows), then shifts to standalone concerts and festivals. Key North American highlights include:
- March 20, 2026 – Yaamava’ Theater, Highland, CA (a smaller, intimate kickoff after Vegas)
- March 21, 2026 – Boots In The Park, Gilbert, AZ
- May 28, 2026 – Gulf Coast Jam Festival, Panama City Beach, FL (multi-day festival headline)
- May 29, 2026 – Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Hollywood, FL
- June 27, 2026 – Nissan Stadium, Nashville, TN (a massive homecoming show)
- July 11, 2026 – Lakefront Park, Prior Lake, MN (Lakefront Music Fest)
- July 16–19, 2026 – Shadow Hill Ranch, Twin Lakes, WI (Country Thunder Wisconsin – four-night stand)
- July 30–August 2, 2026 – Camrose Exhibition Grounds, Camrose, AB, Canada (multiple dates)
- August 5, 2026 – Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds, Davenport, IA
These North American dates emphasize summer festivals and large outdoor venues, capitalizing on Urban’s reputation for electrifying outdoor performances. Nashville’s Nissan Stadium show stands out as a potential career highlight, returning to Music City for a stadium spectacle.
Europe gets a focused run in March 2026, with arena stops that tap into Urban’s international fanbase:
- March 13, 2026 – OVO Hydro, Glasgow, UK
- March 14, 2026 – The O2, London, UK
- March 15, 2026 – SSE Arena, Belfast, UK
These dates follow a pattern of Urban’s previous UK and Ireland visits, where he has consistently sold out arenas with his guitar-driven sets and crowd interaction.
Australia closes the loop later in the year (exact dates pending full announcement, but expected in late 2026), bringing Urban home to perform in arenas and outdoor venues across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and beyond. Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney is rumored as a flagship stop, with potential for multiple nights given his strong pull in his adopted homeland.
The tour supports Urban’s latest album High, released in 2025, which features collaborations with artists like P!nk and Carrie Underwood, blending his signature country-rock sound with pop and introspective elements. Tracks like “Messed Up As Me,” “Blue Sky,” and the Lainey Wilson duet “Go Home W U” have already climbed charts, and fans can expect them woven into a setlist heavy on classics: “Somebody Like You,” “Blue Ain’t Your Color,” “Wasted Time,” “Cop Car,” and “The Fighter.” Urban’s live shows are legendary for their energy—extended guitar solos, audience sing-alongs, and spontaneous covers—often turning arenas into communal celebrations.
Ticket sales are rolling out in phases. Pre-sales for fan club members (via The Ville) and credit card holders began immediately, with general onsales following. Prices vary by venue, but expect premium packages including VIP meet-and-greets, early entry, and exclusive merch. Urban’s team has emphasized accessibility, with some dates offering tiered pricing and charity tie-ins (a portion of proceeds supporting music education initiatives like Music for All).
The 2026 schedule arrives at a pivotal moment for Urban. Fresh off the “High and Alive” World Tour’s North American leg (which wrapped in late 2025 after opening in Orange Beach, AL), he continues to expand his global footprint. His Las Vegas residency at Fontainebleau remains a draw, and collaborations with artists across genres keep him relevant. The multi-continent run reaffirms his status as a road warrior—known for high-octane guitar work, heartfelt ballads, and genuine fan connection.
Fans are already buzzing. Social media is flooded with excitement: “Keith Urban taking over 2026—Nashville stadium show is going to be insane!” “Finally Australia dates confirmed—been waiting since 2025!” “High album live is going to be epic.” The tour’s scale—32 dates across three continents—positions it as one of the biggest country outings of the year, blending festival energy with arena intimacy.
As Keith Urban prepares to hit the road again, the 2026 World Tour promises nights of unforgettable music, guitar fireworks, and the kind of connection that has defined his career. Whether you’re catching him in a Nashville stadium, a UK arena, or an Australian outdoor venue, expect high energy, emotional depth, and pure country-rock magic. Tickets are moving fast—secure yours before the run sells out.
