Chicago has announced its first confirmed concert dates of 2026, continuing a near-unbroken tradition of touring since their founding in the late 1960s. In February, they will return to the Venetian Theatre in Las Vegas for a nine-show residency — a run that marks their ninth consecutive year at the Venetian and solidifies the band as the longest-running residency act in that venue’s history.
The lineup for these shows includes the originals — keyboardist Robert Lamm, trumpeter Lee Loughnane, trombonist James Pankow — alongside longtime collaborators and newer members: Walfredo Reyes Jr. on drums, Tony Obrohta on guitar, Ray Herrmann handling sax and flute parts, Neil Donell on vocals, and others stepping in to help carry the legacy forward.
Ticket sales are set to begin with presales for Citi cardmembers starting 10 AM PT on Monday, October 13 through 10 PM PT Thursday, October 16. General on-sale opens on Friday, October 17 at 10 AM PT. Prices start around $49.95 plus fees. Tickets will be available via Ticketmaster, the Venetian’s box office, and other official outlets.
These dates deliver more than just a concert— they offer fans a chance to experience Chicago’s enduring magic in an intimate, repeat-show setting. As the band heads into 2026, these Venetian shows reaffirm that their music, legacy, and deep connection with audiences aren’t just surviving — they’re thriving.
