Night Ranger has announced a 2026 U.S. tour, with about 20 dates already scheduled. The band will perform multiple shows in Florida, Illinois and Louisiana, and is also set to appear on the 2027 “80s Cruise,” which departs from New Orleans.
Tickets for the tour are currently on sale.
The current Night Ranger lineup features bassist Jack Blades, drummer Kelly Keagy and guitarist Brad Gillis, alongside guitarist Keri Kelli and keyboardist Eric Levy, both of whom joined in the 2010s. Keagy wrote and sang the band’s highest-charting single, “Sister Christian,” which reached No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1984. Blades wrote “Sentimental Street,” which reached the Top 10 in 1985.
Night Ranger, Cheap Trick and Winger each completed separate Japanese farewell tours in 2023, with Night Ranger’s dates held in October. The band’s most recent album, “40 Years and a Night with the Contemporary Youth Orchestra,” was released in 2023 and debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Classical Crossover chart.
“Sister Christian” and “Sentimental Street” were part of a pair of platinum-selling albums in the mid-1980s. Night Ranger also reached the Top 40 with singles such as “When You Close Your Eyes” and “Goodbye.”
