The 2026 concert lineup for Pittsburgh is still filling up, but there are plenty of big shows already announced for next year.

From a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band launching a farewell tour (Journey) to an up-and-coming country act like Megan Moroney, there’s quite a variety of bands, including glam metal (Motley Crue), parody (“Weird Al” Yankovic) and contemporary pop (Alex Warren).

When it comes to stadium shows, there are only two on the schedule, thus far, with a pair of Morgan Wallen shows at Acrisure Stadium.

Shows that have already sold out include Philly punk veterans The Dead Milkmen, Christian singer-songwriter Josiah Queen and country singer Cody Johnson.

At the moment, a number of big acts — Rush, Ed Sheeran, Iron Maiden, Lady Gaga, Foo Fighters, Guns N’ Roses and Cardi B, just to name a few — are skipping Pittsburgh on their 2026 tours.
