Legendary '70s Rocker Announces Update on North America Tour
Legendary rock singer David Lee Roth is hitting more cities in 2026 after announcing five additional shows for his North American tour.
The former Van Halen frontman revealed the update through his official channels, adding new stops in Canada and the United States as demand continues to grow for his ongoing Don't Love Me, Rent Me tour.
The newly announced dates include Edmonton, Alberta on July 10, Vancouver, British Columbia on July 13, Salt Lake City, Utah on July 21, Louisville, Kentucky on July 28 and East Moline, Illinois on July 31.
Fans can access an early ticket presale beginning June 3 at 10 A.M. using the password ROTHROCKS through David Lee Roth's official website. Public ticket sales begin June 5 at 10 A.M.
The tour now stretches across the United States and Canada throughout the summer, featuring more than 20 scheduled performances.
Roth's 2026 itinerary begins June 3 in Port Chester, New York, and includes stops in New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Florida, Colorado, South Dakota, California, Nevada and several Canadian cities.
The expanded schedule comes after Roth's highly publicized return to live performances. The singer stepped away from touring for five years before making his comeback in May 2025.
Since returning to the road, Roth has performed with a band that includes a guitarist, bassist, drummer and four male backing vocalists. His recent concerts have featured many of the songs that helped establish him as one of rock music's most recognizable frontmen.
Known to generations of fans as "Diamond Dave," Roth rose to fame as the lead vocalist of Van Halen. He fronted the band during multiple eras, including its classic lineup years from 1974 to 1985, a brief reunion in 1996 and again from 2007 until the group's final years before disbanding in 2020.
His solo career also produced notable hits including "California Girls," "Yankee Rose" and "Just Like Paradise."
The tour announcement arrives shortly after Roth shared personal memories about his songwriting partnership with late guitar icon Eddie Van Halen during a recent concert appearance.
Speaking to fans during a performance, Roth reflected on the small space where many of Van Halen's earliest songs were created.
"The beginnings of every song we sing to you tonight, I started with Ed," Roth told the audience, per Guitar Player.
He described the room where the pair worked together in the band's early years.
"When I first walked into Ed's, it wasn't even a room," Roth recalled. "It was identical to the way I grew up."
According to Roth, the space was so small that the two musicians worked closely together while developing ideas that would later become some of Van Halen's most famous songs.
Van Halen's self-titled debut album arrived in 1978 and quickly gained national attention. Over the following years, the band released a string of successful albums and became one of the defining rock acts of its generation.
Roth remains closely linked to that legacy while continuing to perform for audiences across North America.
With five new shows added to an already packed schedule, fans will have more opportunities to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame singer live during the summer of 2026.
The full tour continues through September, concluding with a scheduled performance in Laughlin, Nevada on Sept. 5.
