[Originally published 2/27/26; Updated 3/31/26, 4/3/26]: After “leaking” the dates and locations for his 2026 fall tour last month, Billy Strings has officially confirmed the details of the 20-show outing [get tickets].
The tour, comprised mostly of arena shows plus a handful of underplays at beloved theaters in select markets, will begin with a two-night run at Denver, CO’s Ball Arena on September 18th and 19th. Rather than performing a third night at Ball, Billy and company will set up shop at Denver’s Paramount Theatre for an intimate show on September 20th. Next, the bluegrass star will head to Los Angeles, where he’ll similarly pair a cozier theater show (9/25 at The Orpheum Theatre) with a full-scale arena play (9/26 at Kia Forum in Inglewood).
Following a September 28th show at San Diego, CA’s Pechanga Arena, Billy Strings will head to Oakland, CA’s Oakland Arena for a two-night stint on October 2nd and 3rd, then head north for a one-off show at Eugene, OR’s Matthew Knight Arena (10/6) and a two-show run at Everett, WA’s Angel of the Winds Arena (10/9, 10/10).
After a brief break, the tour will resume on October 23rd and 24th for a two-show engagement at Huntsville, AL’s The Orion Amphitheater, followed by the latest chapter in Billy’s growing Halloween history at Baltimore, MD’s CFG Bank Arena (10/30, 10/31). The tour will resume once again in early December for a two-show, two-venue New Orleans run featuring one night at the historic Saenger Theatre (12/4) and the group’s biggest NOLA show to date at Smoothie King Center (12/5) before landing in Texas for shows at Sugar Land’s Smart Financial Centre (12/9) and Fort Worth’s Dickie’s Arena (12/11). One final show on the tour’s itinerary on December 12th remains a mystery, appearing on the official tour admat as “coming soon.”

[2/27/26]: After wrapping his winter 2026 tour with a three-night stint in Nashville last weekend, Billy Strings has offered fans an updated glimpse at his 2026 scheduling notebook—this time featuring new pages outlining a 20-date, 13-city 2026 fall tour.

While the new Billy Strings 2026 fall tour dates have yet to be officially announced, the arena-filling bluegrass star previously rolled out his summer tour dates in the same fashion before confirming the venues and ticketing details of the “leaked” routing at a later date.
Per the notebook, the 2026 Billy Strings fall tour will begin with a three-night run in Denver, CO on September 18th, 19th, and 20th. From there, Strings and his namesake band will travel to Southern California for concerts in Los Angeles (9/25), Inglewood (9/26), and San Diego (9/28) before working up the West Coast for shows in Oakland, CA (10/2, 10/3), Eugene, OR (10/6), and Everett, WA (10/9, 10/10). Later that month, Billy Strings and the gang will land in Huntsville, AL for two nights on October 23rd and 24th, then return to Baltimore, MD on October 30th and 31st to add to their growing Halloween tradition in the Charm City.
After a break in November, Billy will get back to it for a two-night run in New Orleans, LA (12/4, 12/5), Sugar Land, TX (12/9), Fort Worth, TX (12/11). The listed fall tour closes on December 12th with the only new entry that doesn’t have a city attached, seemingly pointing to one more surprise announcement for Billy’s final show of the year.
Although the notebook page doesn’t include venues along with the list of dates and locations, many of the specific venues are relatively easy to deduce: Several of the new stops are in cities where Billy played arena-sized shows in recent years (Denver, CO’s Ball Arena, Everett, WA’s Angel of the Winds Arena, Huntsville, AL’s Orion Amphitheater, Eugene, OR’s Matthew Knight Arena, Fort Worth, TX’s Dickies Arena, etc.), while other engagements (December at New Orleans’ UNO Lakefront Arena, Halloween at Baltimore’s CFG Bank Arena, etc.) appear to follow familiar scheduling parameters from past years.
There is slightly more room for potential venue variance on the California dates. Bill has yet to headline an arena show in Los Angeles proper, though the Crypto.com Arena is ready and waiting. He made his debut at Inglewood’s Kia Forum in 2024, but the nearby Intuit Dome has since begun hosting concerts. In San Diego, Billy has played the outdoor Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre on multiple occasions, though local indoor venues like Pechanga Arena or Viejas Arena would remain in line with the rest of the arena-focused tour. Billy Strings hasn’t played in Oakland in five years, though judging by the tour’s size and scale it seems likely that he’ll be at Oakland Arena.
The only city in the 2026 fall list that has never previously hosted a Billy Strings show is Sugar Land, TX. The city’s largest venue is the 6,400-capacity Smart Financial Centre at Sugar Land.
