Legendary rock band Guns N' Roses is set to storm across the globe in 2026, with a massive world tour that includes three major stadium stops in Canada. The iconic group, known for their marathon live performances, will bring their high-voltage show to Toronto, Edmonton, and Vancouver next summer.
Canadian Tour Stops and Schedule
The Canadian leg of the tour is a highlight for fans across the country. The band will perform at Rogers Stadium in Toronto on August 5, 2026. Following that, they head west to Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton on August 26, and will conclude their Canadian run at B.C. Place in Vancouver on August 29.
This North American segment is part of a much larger global trek that will see the band play in stadiums, arenas, and festivals across the United States, Brazil, the United Kingdom, and Europe throughout the spring and summer of 2026.
New Music and On-Stage Anthems
Fans have new music to look forward to as the tour approaches. The band has announced two new singles, Nothin' and Atlas, which are scheduled for release on December 2, 2025. These will be their first new releases since 2023.
These fresh tracks will join other recent songs, The General and Perhaps, in the band's setlist. Of course, the concerts will be packed with all the classic hits and deep-cut fan favourites from their storied early catalogue that have defined rock and roll for generations.

A Legendary Band's Enduring Power
Guns N' Roses are not just a touring act; they are a rock and roll institution. With total sales of 100 million units, their influence is undeniable. Their 1987 debut, Appetite For Destruction, is certified diamond and holds the record as the best-selling U.S. debut album of all time and the 11th best-selling album ever in the United States.
Their relevance continues in the digital age, as they are one of the most-streamed rock bands globally, boasting an average of 27 million monthly listeners on Spotify. In a crowning achievement, Appetite for Destruction was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in May 2024.
The band's live shows are the stuff of legend, regularly exceeding three hours. Their blockbuster 2024 world tour was their largest to date, selling a staggering 1.3 million tickets worldwide. The current lineup features original members Axl Rose on vocals and keyboards, Duff McKagan on bass, and Slash on lead guitar, alongside Dizzy Reed and Melissa Reese on keyboards, Richard Fortus on rhythm guitar, and Isaac Carpenter on drums.
The tour announcement comes hot on the heels of the release of their deluxe Live Era ‘87-’93 boxset, a limited edition featuring remastered audio and redesigned artwork. The 2026 world tour is scheduled to kick off on March 28 in Monterrey, Mexico, and will wrap up on September 19 in Atlanta, Georgia.
