Ted Nugent has added a dozen new dates to his summer 2026 concert schedule.
Although Nugent announced his retirement from extended touring following his 2023 “Adios Mofos” tour, he made clear at the time that he would continue to perform live. “The musical dream will continue, but I’m not going on tour anymore because hotels are jail,” Nugent said in 2023. “A hotel room is jail for me.”
Nugent performed 10 concerts in 2024 and 15 in 2025. In 2026, he has already played five shows and now has 18 more lined up, beginning April 25 in Bandera, Texas, and currently scheduled to conclude July 18 in Lampe, Missouri.
In addition to his live performances, Nugent has announced a concert film, “Stranglehold 50th Bash,” which documents his Aug. 31, 2025, show in Detroit. The film is available for pre-order on his website, with a release date expected in May 2026.
