Usher Raymond and Chris Brown have officially announced The R&B Tour, a 2026 co-headlining stadium trek across North America. Also referred to as “Raymond & Brown,” this massive production promises to blend nostalgia with high-energy performances, bringing together two GRAMMY award-winning icons on one stage.

Tour Schedule and Major Stops

Produced by Live Nation, the outing consists of a 33-date run spanning the United States and Canada. The tour is designed as a “massive live spectacle,” featuring a setlist of classic anthems and chart-topping hits.

The tour officially kicks off on Friday, June 26, at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver. From there, the duo will hit several major metropolitan hubs, including:

• Detroit
• Chicago
• Toronto
• Las Vegas
• Los Angeles

One of the highly anticipated stops includes a performance at AT&T Stadium in Arlington on September 10, 2026. The tour will conclude its North American run on Friday, December 11, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.
