Garth Brooks Unveils 3rd Stop On New Arena Tour – Get Every Detail
on • Updated
Garth Brooks‘ 2026 arena tour is continuing to expand!
On July 7th, Brooks announced he’s embarking on his Blame It All On My Roots tour, which serves as a callback to his famous 1996 arena tour. That same day, he revealed that the first stop on the trek will be at Indianapolis’ Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Tickets for Indianapolis went on sale on July 17th. The demand was so high that Brooks added two additional performances to his schedule in Indy.
Shortly after that, Brooks unveiled the second stop on his new tour: Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado. Tickets for that venue went on sale on July 31st.
Just like he did in Indianapolis, Brooks ended up adding two more shows to his Denver lineup. His team said that there were over half a million people in the ticket queue at one point.
Denver!!! Over HALF A MILLION in the queue!!!!!! THANK YOU for showing up like this!!! Because of your incredible response, Garth is adding another show, plenty of good seats!!!!

Brooks kept things rolling with the unveiling of his third tour stop on Monday (August 3rd). He announced that he’s heading to Chicago’s Allstate Arena on September 11th and September 12th!
“After INDY, we get the next weekend to recover,” Brooks said in a statement quoted on his official website. “Then it’s TWO heavyweight prizefights back-to-back with Denver and Chicago! This will be a true test early in the Blame It All On My Roots Arena Tour.”
Brooks reflected on the last time he sang in Chicago, saying:
“…that was the city who kicked off the Comeback Tour in 2014. For 12 years we have waited for this chance to get back to say, ‘thank you’ and show them how much we LOVE playing there!”
Chicago is a significant city in Brooks’ career. He’s already performed at Allstate Arena 23 times, more than any other artist in history. 11 of those shows were part of his 2014 Comeback Tour.
“I’ve said before, the cool thing about a retro tour is you get to play the cities that made you,” Brooks said in a statement shared on his website. “Then you come into a city where they still have the building that holds some of your best memories.”
