Sammy Hagar has officially announced a UK arena tour for July 2026, set to reignite the stage with his Best Of All Worlds Band and a setlist heavy on Van Halen hits. As LouderSound reports, Hagar will command four major UK venues: Manchester’s AO Arena on July 4, Birmingham’s BP Pulse Live on July 5, Leeds’ First Direct Bank Arena on July 7, and London’s O2 Arena on July 9.
Joining him will be familiar faces: Michael Anthony (bassist of Van Halen), guitarist Joe Satriani, and drummer Kenny Aronoff—an alignment Hagar calls a “ball” to play through his career’s greatest era.
Hagar emphasised the show’s full range of material:
“It’s gonna be the same mix of songs – very Van Halen-heavy, because Joe can do it. I’m playing 10 or 12 Van Halen songs, seven or eight Sammy songs, a couple of Chickenfoot songs, a couple of Montrose songs.”
“It feels good about playing a lot of Van Halen stuff, cos no one will ever hear it again. And that was the biggest part of my career, and everybody’s career, for god’s sake. It was the biggest band in the world,” Hagar added.
Tickets go on general sale on Friday, October 31 at 10 a.m. GMT. Fiesta in sound and history will come alive when Hagar and company hit the stage, carrying forward a legacy that spans decades.
