Dave Matthews Band Fall Tour 2026: All 7 Dates, Cities and Tickets
Dave Matthews Band plays seven shows on the 2026 Fall Tour: an indoor arena run that opens November 4 at the Kohl Center in Madison, Wisconsin and closes with two nights at Madison Square Garden on November 12 and 13. In between are single dates in Nashville, Chicago, Providence and Baltimore.
The band announced the run on August 11, 2026, and tickets went on general sale Friday, August 21 at 10 a.m. local venue time after a Warehouse Fan Association presale. Two of the seven shows are already gone at face value. No opening acts have been announced for any fall date.
Every 2026 Fall Tour Date
| Date | City | Venue | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wed, Nov 4 | Madison, WI | Kohl Center | On sale |
| Fri, Nov 6 | Nashville, TN | Bridgestone Arena | On sale |
| Sat, Nov 7 | Chicago, IL | United Center | Sold out |
| Mon, Nov 9 | Providence, RI | Amica Mutual Pavilion | On sale |
| Tue, Nov 10 | Baltimore, MD | CFG Bank Arena | On sale |
| Thu, Nov 12 | New York, NY | Madison Square Garden | On sale |
| Fri, Nov 13 | New York, NY | Madison Square Garden | Sold out |
Sold-out status is as listed on the band's official tour page as of August 25, 2026, and it can change if the band or venues release production holds closer to the show. Both sold-out dates are the marquee ones: the Saturday night in Chicago and the second Garden night.
Live listings and current prices for every date are on the Dave Matthews Band artist page, or go straight to Ticketmaster's Dave Matthews Band listings.
What Makes This Run Different
DMB is an amphitheater band by habit. The summer tour is the institution: lawn seats, Gorge weekends, a rotating setlist across two and three night stands outdoors. A seven-date November arena run is the exception, not the pattern, and it changes the experience in ways that matter if you have only ever seen the band outside.
Three things are worth knowing:
No lawn. Every seat is a ticketed seat inside a building. There is no cheap grass option to fall back on, which is part of why the best dates cleared so quickly.
Tighter rooms. The Kohl Center in Madison and Amica Mutual Pavilion in Providence are the two smallest venues on the run by a wide margin. Providence in particular is the kind of booking that DMB fans travel for, because the band has spent most of the last decade in far larger rooms in the Northeast.
Short routing, no filler. Seven shows in ten days with only one market repeated. There is no second night to absorb demand anywhere except New York, and the New York second night is the one that already sold out.
Find the show nearest you on Madison concerts, Nashville concerts, Chicago concerts, Providence concerts, Baltimore concerts and New York concerts.
The Venues
Kohl Center, Madison
The tour opener, and a college basketball arena on the University of Wisconsin campus rather than a purpose-built concert room. Opening nights of a DMB run tend to be looser and heavier on material the band has not played in a while, since nothing has settled into a groove yet. See what else is booked at Kohl Center.
Bridgestone Arena, Nashville
Friday night downtown, in a building that hosts more country than jam. Check the full Bridgestone Arena schedule.
United Center, Chicago
Sold out. The Saturday of the run and the largest capacity outside New York. If you are chasing this one, resale is the only route, and the United Center page tracks live listings.
Amica Mutual Pavilion, Providence
The smallest room on the tour and the only Monday night. By DMB standards this is a genuinely intimate show.
CFG Bank Arena, Baltimore
The Tuesday date, in a downtown arena that reopened in 2023 after a gut renovation. Browse CFG Bank Arena.
Madison Square Garden, New York
Two nights to finish, November 12 and 13, with the 13th already sold out. DMB has a long history at Madison Square Garden, and a two-night stand there should mean two very different setlists. The band is known for avoiding repeats across consecutive nights in the same building.
What Is Left on the 2026 Calendar Before November
The fall arena run is not the only thing on the schedule. As of late August, the band still has these dates listed:
| Date | City | Venue or Event |
|---|---|---|
| Fri, Aug 28 | Greenwood Village, CO | Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre |
| Sat, Aug 29 | Greenwood Village, CO | Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre |
| Mon, Aug 31 | Shakopee, MN | Mystic Lake Amphitheater |
| Fri, Sep 4 | George, WA | The Gorge Amphitheatre |
| Sat, Sep 5 | George, WA | The Gorge Amphitheatre |
| Sun, Sep 6 | George, WA | The Gorge Amphitheatre |
| Fri, Sep 25 | Ocean City, MD | Oceans Calling Festival |
| Sat, Sep 26 | Virginia Beach, VA | Farm Aid 2026 (Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds) |
| Sun, Sep 27 | Louisville, KY | Bourbon & Beyond |
| Sat, Oct 3 | Columbia, MD | Merriweather Post Pavilion (Dave Matthews solo) |
The Gorge weekend over Labor Day is the annual centerpiece and the only stretch of 2026 with announced support: Stephen Wilson Jr. and Infinity Song on September 4, Watchhouse and Jonah Kagen on September 5, and Jesse Welles and Sierra Hull on September 6. The Mystic Lake Amphitheater date on August 31 is the last stop before that.
Note that three of those September and October appearances are not full-band shows in the usual sense. Farm Aid is a Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds duo set, and the Merriweather date is billed as Dave Matthews solo as part of the Power To The People Festival. If you want the full seven-piece band, the Gorge weekend and the November arena run are the shows.
Looking further out, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds have a four-night Riviera Maya run at Moon Palace in Cancun from January 20 to 23, 2027, with Goose on the opening night.
Tickets and Pricing
General on-sale ran August 21. What is left now is a mix of remaining primary inventory on the five shows that did not sell out and resale on all seven.
A few practical notes for this specific run:
- The two sold-out dates behave differently. Chicago and the second Garden night will only get more expensive as November approaches, because there is no supply relief coming. If you need one of those, buying early is usually cheaper than waiting.
- The midweek dates are the value. Monday in Providence and Tuesday in Baltimore are the least contested nights on the routing.
- Watch for production holds. Arena shows routinely release blocked seats behind and beside the stage in the final week. That is the one legitimate way sold-out shows get cheap seats back.
Our guides on how to find cheap concert tickets and how to buy floor tickets before they sell out cover the general tactics. Browse everything else on the road in rock tours.
One more thing worth knowing if you cannot get to a show: the band is releasing archived recordings of each concert through nugs under a partnership announced earlier in 2026, so every date on this run should be available to stream afterward.
