New Era: Fleetwood Mac Announces 2026 Farewell Tour: ‘One Last Ride’ Marks the End of a Rock Legend’s Era — Dates and Cities Revealed
In a poignant moment that has rocked the music world, legendary rock band Fleetwood Mac has officially announced its final curtain call — the 2026 Farewell Tour titled “One Last Ride.” This historic tour will mark the end of one of rock music’s most iconic and influential legacies, spanning over five decades of unforgettable music, drama, and cultural impact.
Fleetwood Mac made the emotional announcement through a heartfelt video posted across their social media platforms, with surviving band members — Mick Fleetwood, Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie’s estate, and John McVie — offering tributes, stories, and a unified declaration: this tour is their last dance with the fans who have stood by them for generations.
A Tribute to Legacy and Loss
The “One Last Ride” tour serves not only as a celebration but also as a tribute to the band’s fallen members, most notably Christine McVie, who passed away in 2022. Her legacy will be honored throughout the tour with visual montages, vocal tributes, and never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage projected during key performances like “Songbird,” “Everywhere,” and “You Make Loving Fun.”
Mick Fleetwood, the band’s co-founder and drummer, stated in the press release:
“We owe everything to the fans who stayed with us through all the eras, the heartbreaks, the reunions, and the music. Christine is with us in spirit, and we want to honor her and our history with grace, gratitude, and a final ride.”
Tour Dates and Cities Revealed
The farewell tour will span 40 dates across North America and Europe, kicking off on May 2, 2026, in Los Angeles, California — the city that witnessed their meteoric rise in the mid-1970s. It will wrap up with an emotional final show in London’s Wembley Stadium on October 10, 2026, where the band was originally formed in 1967.

An Emotional Goodbye
From their early blues-rock origins to the dizzying heights of multi-platinum success with “Rumours” and beyond, Fleetwood Mac’s career has been a masterclass in survival, transformation, and brilliance. Their songs—raw, poetic, and endlessly relatable—defined generations and reshaped rock history.
As the band prepares to close this epic chapter, Mick Fleetwood summed it up best:
“It’s not goodbye to the music — it lives on. But this is our last time on the road. We want to do it with love, with fire, and with the fans who made this all possible.”
“One Last Ride” promises to be more than a tour — it will be a historical farewell, an emotional celebration, and a reminder of just how deeply music can connect us across time.
