Ye adds three US stadium shows in Houston, Dallas and Phoenix to his 2026 tour behind ‘Bully.’ Here are the dates and on-sale details
Ye is extending his US footprint before the year is out. The rapper and producer formerly known as Kanye West has added three new stadium dates to his 2026 tour, including Halloween-night and early-November shows across Texas and Arizona. According to announcements posted to his official tour website on Tuesday, September 1, Ye will play Houston’s Reliant Stadium on October 31, AT&T Stadium in the Dallas area on November 7, and State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, on November 21. The run supports his 2026 album Bully.
The new dates fill out a schedule that has kept Ye almost entirely on the road this year, with only a handful of US stops. They follow a pair of hometown shows on September 3 and 4 at Chicago’s Soldier Field, and precede his first-ever concert in Indonesia, set for Jakarta on October 24. The Dallas show marks his first-ever performance at the home of the Dallas Cowboys.
On-Sale Details
For fans looking to attend, the ticketing timeline is now set. Ye’s website is accepting registrations for all three concerts, and notes that a limited number of pre-registered fans will be selected to receive free tickets. For the Houston show, Ticketmaster lists artist, VIP, and premium presales beginning Tuesday, September 8 at 10 a.m. CT, with a general on-sale following Thursday, September 10 at 10 a.m. CT. The Dallas-area date follows a similar structure, with presales beginning September 8 and general sales on September 10.

A Commercially Potent, Deeply Controversial Draw
The stadium expansion underscores a paradox that has defined Ye’s recent career: he remains one of live music’s most bankable draws even as his conduct has cost him nearly every corporate relationship he had. On the commercial side, the numbers are staggering. His April run at Los Angeles’ SoFi Stadium, following the March arrival of Bully, grossed $32.6 million across 149,000 tickets sold, according to Billboard Boxscore. His April 1 show alone made him the first rapper to surpass both 70,000 tickets and $16 million from a single US concert, setting a single-show revenue record for a hip-hop artist.
That drawing power has not shielded him from significant fallout. Ye’s antisemitic remarks and hate speech in recent years have led to the collapse of lucrative partnerships with adidas, Universal Music Group, Gap, and Balenciaga. In a full-page advertisement in The Wall Street Journal in January 2026, Ye apologized for his past antisemitic comments, attributing them to his mental health struggles while stating that the explanation did not excuse his actions.
The controversy has directly disrupted his touring plans abroad. His summer headlining slot at London’s Wireless Festival was canceled after the United Kingdom denied him a visa. Italian officials scrapped two July stadium shows, citing public safety and counter-protest concerns, and government or venue officials also called off planned June dates in Marseille, France, and Chorzów, Poland. His July concert in San Antonio, one of his few US stops earlier in the year, drew boycott calls and criticism from local officials tied to his past remarks.
Even amid that turbulence, Ye’s international dates have drawn enormous crowds, including a reported 118,000 attendees at Istanbul’s Atatürk Olympic Stadium on May 30. The three new US stadium shows suggest that, controversy notwithstanding, promoters and venues in Houston, Dallas, and Phoenix are betting the demand remains. Whether the dates proceed without the disruptions that have marked his international run remains to be seen. For now, Ye’s 2026 tour continues, with the newly added stadium shows kicking off October 31 in Houston.
