Chicago Plans Multiple 2026 North American Concerts Including El Paso and Arkansas

The legendary rock band Chicago, known for their distinctive horn-infused sound and multiple accolades including induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016, is set to perform multiple concerts across the U.S. in early 2026. Confirmed dates include March 4 at the Plaza Theatre in El Paso, Texas, March 9 at The Buddy Holly Hall in Lubbock, Texas, and March 14 at the Simmons Bank Arena in North Little Rock, Arkansas, with tickets going on sale in late October 2025. Chicago's debut album, "Chicago Transit Authority," has been honored with induction into the Grammy Hall of Fame and the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress in 2025, underscoring their cultural significance. Celebrating the 50th anniversary of "Chicago IX: Chicago's Greatest Hits," the band released an expanded edition of the album in August 2025. The band continues to tour with a lineup including original members Lee Loughnane, Robert Lamm, and James Pankow, alongside newer members, delivering a mix of classic hits and deep cuts. Fans can expect a signature blend of rock, jazz, and pop that has earned Chicago over 100 million records sold, numerous top-charting singles, and a lasting legacy in American music history.
