For more than three decades, Guns N’ Roses have stood tall as one of rock’s most electrifying and enduring acts. From their Appetite for Destruction explosion in the late ’80s to record‑shaking global tours in the 2010s and 2020s, the California legends continue to prove their staying power. Fronted by Axl Rose’s unmistakable voice, Slash’s iconic top hat and searing guitar, and Duff McKagan’s thunderous bass, the band has defined generations of rock fans and shaped the sound of modern stadium rock. Their legacy is one built on raw energy, impossible riffs, and timeless anthems that have echoed across continents.
After a massive 2025 run on the Because What You Want & What You Get Are Two Completely Different Things tour — which saw them playing 40+ shows around the globe and introducing new drummer Isaac Carpenter — Guns N’ Roses are ready to return even bigger in 2026. The band’s non‑stop passion and willingness to evolve have kept them at the forefront of rock music, and they show no signs of slowing down. Fans have been buzzing about every new single, performance clip, and tour announcement as the band prepares for another world‑spanning adventure.
The 2026 Guns N’ Roses World Tour is shaping up to be one for the ages, beginning on March 28 in Monterrey, Mexico, where the Gunners will take the stage at Tecate Pa’l Norte. From there, the tour roars through Brazil with stops in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and more before heading northward. These dates promise massive crowds, fiery performances, and a celebration of both classic hits and newer material.
Spring transitions into summer with a powerful European leg that includes shows in Poland, Ireland, England, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, and France. Highlights of this stretch include performances at iconic festivals like Download Festival in Donington, UK, and multiple nights in Amsterdam and Paris that are already drawing fervent fan interest.
Once summer hits in full force, the tour shifts back to North America with an extensive run that spans from July through September. Cities on the itinerary include Raleigh, NC; Saratoga Springs, NY; Tinley Park, IL; Hershey, PA; Toronto, ON; Las Vegas, NV; San Diego, CA; Pasadena, CA; Arlington, TX; and Atlanta, GA, among many others — giving fans coast‑to‑coast access to one of rock’s most legendary live acts.
Alongside the dates themselves, this tour also boasts a rich roster of special guests for many North American shows. Acts such as Public Enemy, Ice Cube, Pierce The Veil, The Black Crowes, and more are slated to join the band on select nights, adding fresh energy and diverse sounds to the rock spectacle.
With such a broad and ambitious schedule, Guns N’ Roses are once again proving why they remain icons of live performance. From historic festival stages in Europe to cherished American venues like the Rose Bowl in Pasadena — where they’ll mark their return for the first time in decades — this tour promises unforgettable nights of pyrotechnics, passion, and pure rock and roll.
For fans who’ve followed them since the ’80s and newcomers discovering the band every day, the 2026 World Tour is more than just another concert — it’s a celebration of a career that refuses to fade.
