Rock legends ZZ Top are showing no signs of slowing down in 2026. The iconic Texas trio have officially expanded their touring schedule, adding a fresh wave of concert dates to an already massive run that spans North America and beyond.
A Bigger, Bolder “Big One!”
Originally announced as a spring tour, “The Big One!” has quickly grown into one of the band’s most ambitious road outings in years. Kicking off in Texas, the tour now stretches deeper into the U.S., with newly added stops giving more fans a chance to experience the band’s unmistakable blues-rock groove live.
Cities across the Midwest and South are among the biggest beneficiaries of the expansion, with additional performances scheduled in places like Lexington, Huntsville, and Peoria. Several markets, including Texas strongholds, will even see multiple nights, underscoring the band’s enduring popularity on home turf.
Crossing Genres With The “Dos Amigos Tour”
Adding even more excitement to the 2026 calendar, ZZ Top are teaming up with country star Dwight Yoakam for the co-headlining “Dos Amigos Tour.”
This unique pairing blends gritty blues-rock with honky-tonk swagger, offering fans a rare crossover experience. The joint dates promise high-energy performances and a celebration of American roots music in all its forms.
A Global Road Trip
The North American leg is just the beginning. Following their U.S. run, ZZ Top are set to take the tour overseas, bringing “The Big One!” to European audiences throughout the summer. The international stretch ensures that their global fanbase won’t miss out on the action.
A Legacy That Refuses To Fade
More than 50 years after forming, ZZ Top remain one of rock’s most consistent live acts. Even after the loss of longtime bassist Dusty Hill in 2021, the band has continued forward, honoring his legacy while keeping their signature sound intact.
With timeless hits like “La Grange,” “Sharp Dressed Man,” and “Gimme All Your Lovin’,” their setlists remain packed with crowd favorites that span generations.
Still Bad, Still Nationwide
The newly announced 2026 dates aren’t just an extension, they’re a statement. ZZ Top aren’t simply revisiting past glory; they’re actively reinforcing their place as one of rock’s most enduring touring forces.
And if this latest expansion proves anything, it’s that the little ol’ band from Texas still has plenty of road left ahead.
