Bob Dylan has confirmed a spring 2026 extension of his Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour, with dates across the U.S. from March through May 2026. The run includes stops in cities from Omaha to Abilene and everywhere in between. (JamBase)
Whether you’re a lifelong Dylan fan or curious to catch this music icon live, here are the best ways to secure tickets:
Official Primary Ticket Sites
- Ticketmaster
- The main authorized seller for most tour stops.
- Tickets went on sale to the general public on December 12 at 10 a.m. local venue time for many shows. (JamBase)
- Visit Ticketmaster’s Bob Dylan page to search by city and show date.
- AXS
- Some venues (notably certain theaters and auditoriums) list Dylan tickets via AXS. (AXS)
- Great to check here if Ticketmaster doesn’t show availability for a specific stop.
- Box Office
- Several venues sell tickets directly at their box offices, especially local theaters. For example, the Columbus show offers tickets through the CAPA Ticket Center. (capa.com)
Presales (Before General On-Sale)
Many shows offered presale access the day before the general sale (Dec 11):
- Artist & radio presales: often require a presale code.
- Fans have shared that codes like “ROUGH” or “ROWDY” have worked for various venues, though sometimes venues use unique codes posted on their social media or websites. (Reddit)
- Signing up for venue newsletters or following local venue social accounts can help you catch presale codes before they expire.
Secondary Market Options
If primary tickets are sold out, you can still try reputable reselling platforms:
- SeatGeek
- StubHub
- Vivid Seats
- Tixel (fan-to-fan resale with fraud prevention safeguards) (Tixel)
Resale prices may be higher than original face value, especially for shows in smaller venues with limited capacity, something some fans have noted from past Dylan tours. (Reddit)

Quick Tips For Buying
✅ Buy as early as possible. Many Dylan shows are in smaller theatres, and tickets can sell out quickly. (Ticket News)
✅ Show up online before the sale start time. Some ticket sites implement virtual queues.
✅ Check multiple official sellers. A show sold out on one platform doesn’t always mean all are gone.
✅ Beware of unofficial ticket broker sites. Sites not affiliated with Dylan or venues may charge very high fees or be unreliable.
