Global pop sensation Bruno Mars has officially announced he is heading back on the road for “The Romantic Tour,” marking his first headlining trek in nearly a decade. For Toronto fans who have been waiting since his last sold-out run in 2018, yes, we are on the list!
The 16-time Grammy winner will be taking over the city’s newest massive outdoor venue, Rogers Stadium, for two back-to-back nights on May 23 and 24, 2026. The shows are part of a global stadium tour celebrating his highly anticipated fourth studio album, The Romantic, which is set to drop on February 27.
As his fans can attest to, the evening promises to be a high-energy affair, featuring a setlist that blends brand-new tracks with the diamond-certified hits that made him a household name. Mars won’t be coming alone, either; he’s bringing his Silk Sonic collaborator Anderson .Paak (performing as DJ Pee .Wee) and R&B artist Leon Thomas along for the ride to ensure the vibes are immaculate from start to finish.
While the tour kicks off in Las Vegas this April before heading across Europe, Toronto is one of the lucky few Canadian stops on the 40-city itinerary.
If you’re looking to secure your spot in the crowd, you’ll need to move fast. Fans can sign up for the artist presale on Bruno Mars’ official website until January 12. The presale officially begins on Wednesday, January 14, at 12 p.m. local time, followed by the general public onsale on Thursday, January 15.
