An Open Letter: Foo Fighters Announce 2026 Farewell Tour


“One Last Ride” Marks the End of a Rock Legend’s Era — Dates and Cities Revealed

To our friends, our fans, and every soul who’s ever screamed our lyrics into the night —

After nearly three decades of guitars, chaos, tears, and triumph, Foo Fighters will take One Last Ride together.
In 2026, we’ll hit the road for what will be our final world tour — a farewell to the relentless touring life that has carried us across generations, across continents, and through every emotion imaginable.

This isn’t a goodbye to music.
It’s a thank you.
It’s a closing chapter.
It’s our last ride — and we want you with us for every second of it.


Why Now? Why “One Last Ride”?

We’ve always said that the stage is home — the place where pain burns away and sound becomes salvation. But home changes. Time moves. Life demands new chapters.

We’ve lived a lifetime out there — from sweaty clubs to stadiums shaking under the weight of 100,000 voices. But the road, as beautiful as it is, asks for everything — your time, your body, your sanity. And after so many miles and so many years, we’ve decided it’s time to take our final bow on our own terms.

“One Last Ride” is not the end of Foo Fighters — it’s the end of the road version of us.
The music will go on. The friendships will go on. The spirit will live forever.


The Tour: Cities, Dates & Final Curtain

The One Last Ride World Tour will stretch across five continents, celebrating every era, every album, and every fan who made this journey possible.LegRegionConfirmed / Projected CitiesHighlightsNorth America Kicking off Spring 2026 Los Angeles, New York, Seattle, Chicago, Toronto, Atlanta Grand finale show rumored for Seattle, the band’s birthplace Europe Summer 2026 London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam, Madrid, Milan Two-night Wembley Stadium farewell South America Fall 2026 São Paulo, Buenos Aires, Santiago, Mexico City Massive festival-style shows with guest artists Asia & Oceania Late 2026 Tokyo, Seoul, Singapore, Sydney, Melbourne Special finale at Sydney Cricket Ground Africa & Middle East Year-end 2026 Lagos, Johannesburg, Dubai Symbolic final world send-off before the closing show

Tickets will first open to official fan club members, followed by general public sales shortly after. Once these shows are gone — they’re gone. There will be no extensions. No “Part Two.” This is it.


The Road That Built Us

Foo Fighters began as one man’s refuge from grief — Dave Grohl’s act of survival after the loss of Kurt Cobain.
From that spark came a band that turned pain into anthems and rebellion into healing.

From Everlong and My Hero to The Pretender and Times Like These, these songs became more than hits — they became lifelines for millions.

We’ve lost brothers along the way. We’ve grown families. We’ve fought through heartbreak.
When Taylor Hawkins passed in 2022, the world stopped with us. Every show since has been for him — and because of him.
Our 2023 album, But Here We Are, was a love letter to that pain, a way to keep his light alive. And now, One Last Ride will honor that spirit — loud, wild, and unapologetically alive.


What Comes After the Ride

Make no mistake — this isn’t the end of creativity. Foo Fighters will continue making music, collaborating, producing, and possibly performing special one-offs or residencies.
But the era of constant global touring ends here.

Expect a live concert film, a farewell documentary, a deluxe box set, and an official Foo Fighters memoir chronicling the band’s entire journey from garage beginnings to global icons.

This is our way of preserving the noise, the laughter, and the love — forever.


A Letter from the Band

“We’ve given everything we have to these shows — our hearts, our bones, our families, our youth.
We’ve played through loss and found joy again in your voices.
Now, it’s time to say goodbye to the road, but not to you.
The next time those lights go out and the crowd starts to hum, we want that moment to burn brighter than ever.

So, let’s go out the only way we know how — loud, raw, and together.

See you out there. One last ride.”

Dave, Pat, Nate, Rami, and Chris


Legacy of Fire

From basement beginnings to Rock & Roll Hall of Fame immortality, Foo Fighters have carried the torch of pure rock into the modern age — refusing to bow to trends, never afraid to feel, to rage, to mean something.
And as this era ends, one truth remains unshakable:

Legends never fade. They echo.

In 2026, Foo Fighters will roar into the night one final time —
for Taylor,
for the fans,
for the music that refuses to die.

This is One Last Ride.
