Led Zeppelin Announces 2026 Farewell Tour: ‘One Last Ride’ Signals the End of an Era — Full Tour Schedule Revealed
In a moment that’s both thrilling and bittersweet for rock fans around the world, Led Zeppelin has officially announced their 2026 Farewell Tour, aptly titled “One Last Ride.” After decades of reshaping rock and roll with iconic riffs, timeless lyrics, and legendary live performances, the band is ready to take the stage one final time to celebrate their legacy and say goodbye to their global fanbase.
The news broke via a statement from the band’s longtime management team early Friday morning, confirming what had previously only been rumored for months. Accompanying the announcement was a message from the band:
“This is for the fans who have stood by us for over five decades. ‘One Last Ride’ is our way of saying thank you, and farewell, in the only way we know how — through the music.”
A Tour Decades in the Making
Led Zeppelin’s influence is immeasurable. Since their formation in 1968, the band has carved out a permanent place in music history with groundbreaking albums like Led Zeppelin IV, Physical Graffiti, and Houses of the Holy. Though they officially disbanded in 1980 following the death of drummer John Bonham, sporadic reunions over the years have kept hope alive that fans might see them together on stage again. Now, that hope has become reality — for one final time.
Surviving members Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones will reunite for this farewell journey, with Bonham’s son, Jason Bonham, once again stepping in to honor his father’s legacy on drums. Jason’s presence brings authenticity and emotional depth to the performances, something fans cherished during their 2007 reunion show at London’s O2 Arena.
Tour Dates and Cities Revealed
The 2026 “One Last Ride” Tour will span 20 cities across North America and Europe, kicking off in Los Angeles on May 15, 2026, and wrapping up in London’s Wembley Stadium on August 29, 2026. Venues range from iconic stadiums to open-air arenas — the kind of places fit for legends.
Here are a few of the key stops on the tour:
May 15 – Los Angeles, CA – SoFi Stadium
May 22 – Chicago, IL – Soldier Field
May 29 – New York, NY – MetLife Stadium
June 5 – Toronto, ON – Rogers Centre

More international dates may be added depending on demand, but organizers emphasize that this is the band’s final tour — not a temporary farewell.
Tickets and Fan Reactions
Tickets go on sale Friday, June 7th, with a special fan presale beginning June 4th. Unsurprisingly, demand is already skyrocketing. Social media erupted within minutes of the announcement, with hashtags like #OneLastRide and #LedZeppelin2026 trending worldwide.
One longtime fan tweeted, “I’ve waited my whole life for this. My dad saw them in ’75 — now I get to see them in 2026. Full circle.”
A Legacy Cemented
While Led Zeppelin’s final tour is cause for nostalgia, it’s also a celebration of a band whose music has defined generations. Their influence can be heard across genres and decades, and their farewell tour promises to be more than just a concert — it will be a historic moment in music history.
As Robert Plant said in the tour trailer, “We’ve taken the ride of a lifetime. Now, we’re inviting you to join us for one last journey.”
Rock fans — get ready. The final chapter of Led Zeppelin’s live legacy is about to be written.
