Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, are set to embark on an exciting summer tour in 2026, with performances scheduled across two continents. Fans can look forward to a mix of festival appearances and long-awaited headline concerts.
The tour kicks off with a significant performance at the BottleRock festival in Napa Valley, California. Joan Jett will join a diverse lineup of artists at this event, sharing the stage with acts like Foo Fighters, Kool & the Gang, Men at Work, and Bush. This marks Jett's third appearance at BottleRock, having previously played the festival's inaugural year in 2013 and returning in 2017.
Following her U.S. festival date, Jett will perform at the America250PA Commonwealth Concert Series in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Before this, the band is scheduled for concerts in Solvesborg, Sweden, and Tilloloy, France, showcasing their international appeal.
A major highlight of the 2026 schedule is the band's return to the United Kingdom for their first headlining shows in over 15 years. Joan Jett and the Blackhearts will bring their electrifying performance to fans in Glasgow, Leeds, and Manchester. Additional tour dates, venue details, and ticket information are available on Joan Jett's official website.
This upcoming tour will be the band's first since the passing of Thommy Price, who served as the Blackhearts' dedicated drummer from 1986 to 2016. Price contributed to eight of their albums, starting with Jett's fifth studio project. He passed away at the age of 68. Last year, Jett also shared stages with fellow 80s rock star Billy Idol during his It's a Nice Day to ... Tour Again! and held a residency in Las Vegas.
