In a move that solidifies their status as titans of the genre, R&B icons Chris Brown and Usher have unveiled the itinerary for their highly anticipated 2026 co-headlining stadium trek, titled The R&B Tour. Produced by Live Nation, the 33-date tour will see the two hitmakers traverse North America, delivering high-energy performances across major markets in the United States and Canada.
A Landmark Collaboration for R&B
The announcement follows a viral social media teaser that ignited fan speculation last week. By joining forces, Brown and Usher are bringing together two of the most successful catalogs in contemporary music. This tour represents a significant moment for the genre, as both artists are currently operating at the peak of their commercial powers.
Both icons are coming off historic milestones. Usher’s recent momentum follows a stellar 2023 and 2024, having recently sold over 1.1 million tickets for his USHER: Past, Present, Future run. Meanwhile, Chris Brown continues to break records; his BREEZY BOWL XX WORLD TOUR recently concluded as the highest-grossing tour ever by a solo Black American male artist, a feat that cements his legacy alongside the greats of the 2010s and beyond.
Tour Schedule and Major Markets
The stadium run is scheduled to commence on Friday, June 26, at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver. From there, the duo will visit iconic venues including Chicago’s Soldier Field, Toronto’s Rogers Stadium, and Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium. The tour is set to conclude on December 11 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida.
Philanthropic Partnership with Global Citizen
Beyond the spectacle of the performances, The R&B Tour will carry a philanthropic mission. The artists have partnered with Global Citizen, pledging that one dollar from every ticket sold will benefit the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund. This initiative aims to support and enhance youth education programs on a global scale.
Ticket Information and Presale Access
Tickets for the general public will go on sale starting Monday, April 27, at 12 p.m. local time through the official tour website. However, fans will have several opportunities for early access. Citi cardmembers can participate in a special presale beginning Tuesday, April 21. Additionally, Live Nation All Access members will have their own presale window starting April 23.
