Foo Fighters x Bryan Adams Reunite for the Biggest Music Festival Tour — All Dates and Cities Revealed
In a move that has sent shockwaves through the global music scene, Foo Fighters and Bryan Adams have officially announced that they’re reuniting for what’s being hailed as one of the most ambitious and electrifying music festival tours of the decade. This unexpected yet thrilling collaboration will see two generations of rock legends sharing the stage across continents — from North America to Europe and beyond — in a celebration of timeless music, raw passion, and the enduring power of live performance.
Dubbed the “Legends United Festival Tour 2026,” this global event promises to deliver more than just a concert experience. It’s a full-blown celebration of rock history — merging the fierce energy of Foo Fighters’ stadium-sized anthems with Bryan Adams’ iconic heartland rock classics. Fans can expect powerful live renditions of hits like “Summer of ’69,” “Run to You,” “Heaven,” and “Cuts Like a Knife,” alongside Foo Fighters’ thunderous staples such as “Everlong,” “The Pretender,” “Times Like These,” and “Best of You.”
A Reunion Years in the Making
While Foo Fighters and Bryan Adams have crossed paths at various charity concerts and award shows, this marks their first major collaborative tour. The idea reportedly began backstage at a tribute concert in London in 2024, where both artists performed back-to-back and discovered a shared admiration for each other’s songwriting and stage energy. What started as casual talk soon evolved into a full-scale project — one that now stands as a landmark moment in modern rock history.
Dave Grohl, frontman of Foo Fighters, expressed his excitement in the official press release:
> “Bryan is one of the greats — his songs shaped an era, and his voice still hits with the same force it did decades ago. Sharing the stage with him isn’t just an honor; it’s going to be an explosion of music, energy, and emotion every single night.”
Bryan Adams echoed that sentiment, adding:
> “Foo Fighters represent everything that’s right about rock and roll — authenticity, power, and connection. I can’t wait to hit the road with them and make memories with fans around the world.”
The Tour Itself: Global, Massive, and Unmissable
The Legends United Festival Tour is set to kick off in Los Angeles, California, in May 2026, with an opening weekend expected to draw over 100,000 fans. From there, the tour will move through major U.S. cities including Chicago, New York, Nashville, Dallas, and Seattle, before crossing the Atlantic for an explosive European leg that includes stops in London, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, Amsterdam, and Rome. The tour will wrap up in Toronto, Canada, with a grand finale at the Rogers Centre.
Each stop will feature two full headline sets — one by Bryan Adams and one by Foo Fighters — plus a joint finale where both acts will perform together on stage. Rumor has it they’re already working on a collaborative single, which could debut live during the tour’s first leg.
Adding to the excitement, a rotating lineup of supporting acts will join different legs of the tour, including artists like The Killers, Kings of Leon, Alanis Morissette, and The Black Keys. This dynamic roster ensures that no two shows will be exactly the same, giving fans a unique experience at every stop.
Production and Experience
The production team behind this tour is going all out. Organizers describe it as a “visual and sonic experience unlike anything seen before”, featuring immersive lighting, massive LED installations, pyrotechnics, and multi-angle sound systems that will make stadiums feel intimate. Both Adams and Grohl are known for valuing connection with their audiences, and this tour’s setup aims to bring that emotion to life — blending nostalgia with cutting-edge stage design.
In keeping with the spirit of unity, both artists have also pledged a portion of the tour’s profits to global music education programs and youth charity foundations, ensuring that the tour leaves an impact far beyond the stage.
Fan Reactions and Ticket Frenzy
Within hours of the announcement, social media erupted with excitement. Fans from every corner of the world expressed disbelief and anticipation, calling the pairing a “dream lineup” and “the collaboration we didn’t know we needed.” Ticket pre-registration broke records on several major platforms, signaling that the tour may sell out within minutes once general sales open.
Longtime rock fans view this collaboration as a bridge between eras — Bryan Adams representing the golden age of ‘80s rock and Foo Fighters carrying the torch for modern rock excellence. Together, they embody the spirit of resilience, melody, and emotion that has defined generations of live music.
