More Goose: Band Announces Headline Tour Including Two Nights At Madison Square Garden And In Other Markets

Goose has unveiled full details of the band’s summer headline tour. Dates begin June 13 at Toronto, Ontario’s RBC Amphitheatre and continue through late August.

Highlights include a previously announced two-night return to New York City’s Madison Square Garden (June 19-20), along with two-night stands at The Dome in Virginia Beach (June 15-16), Red Hat Amphitheater in Raleigh (June 26-27), Leader Bank Pavilion in Boston (June 30-July 1), NY’s Saratoga Performing Arts Center in Saratoga Springs (July 3-4), Hayden Homes Amphitheater in Bend, Oregon, (Aug. 21-22), Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado (Aug. 27-28) and Charleston, South Carolina’s Firefly Distillery (June 23-24).

“We see it often where artists will come and pick different venues – every other year, every two years,” says Amber Spigner, Director of Events at Firefly Distillery. Goose played two dates for the popular Goosemas XI in December 2024 at the 13K-cap North Charleston Coliseum and Performing Arts Center. The capacity Firefly Distillery is 5,000.

“I will say the arena has a larger capacity than we do so it makes sense for them to come and do two nights here,” adds Spigner. “But it’s a different vibe. We are definitely an outdoor venue. It brings a different element and experience for the patrons.”

In addition to the multi-night stands, Goose has a series of one-night-only shows at such famed venues as Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland (June 28) and The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles (Aug. 4). 

Goose will be joined on select dates by a number of special guests, including Julian Lage (June 13), The Disco Biscuits (July 3), moe. (July 4), Greensky Bluegrass (Aug. 19-21), and Buffalo Traffic Jam (Aug. 22).

Presale sign-ups are available now. Fans who sign up will receive a unique code allowing access to the official Goose presale beginning Jan. 28, at 10:00 AM local time. Additional presales will run throughout the week leading up to the general on sale on Jan. 31 at 10:00 AM local time.

For the Red Rocks shows in August, Goose will utilize the Fair AXS ticket registration system. For these shows, fans can register through Jan. 28, at 10:00 PM/MST to purchase tickets before the general public. Selected fans will be emailed on or before Feb. 4 with a link to purchase tickets through Feb. 5. A very limited number of tickets will be made available for general on-sale Feb. 6, at 10:00 AM/MST.

All tickets sales benefit the Western Sun Foundation (WSF), with $1 from every ticket sold going to support the volunteer-run 501(c)(3)nonprofit organization that provides charitable support to small and mid-sized nonprofits in the communities Goose fans travel through. The band includes Rick Mitarotonda (vocals, guitar), Peter Anspach (vocals, keys, guitar), Trevor Weekz (bass) and Cotter Ellis (vocals, drums) and has earned a unique, reputation for their playful approach to indie-rock interspersed with improvisation and driving rhythm.

Goose kicks off the 2026 live schedule with a top-billed performance at Athens, Georgia’s annual Jam in the Streets music festival on March 28, followed by headline dates beginning April 10 in Asheville at North Carolina’s ExploreAsheville.com Arena and continuing through the month.

The April run includes two-night stands at Fort Lauderdale’s War Memorial Auditorium (April 14-15), St. Augustine Amphitheatre (April 18-19), the Saenger Theatre in New Orleans (April 21-22) and a special return to the Moody Center in Austin (April 24) as well as a festival appearance at Florida Groves Music & Arts Festival in Orlando (April 12).

From there, Goose returns to San José del Cabo for the second edition of “Viva El Gonzo” taking place May 7-9 and presented once again by 100x Hospitality. Anchored by three consecutive nights of performances by Goose, the festival will feature sets from My Morning Jacket, Cory Wong, LP Giobbi, Jim James (acoustic), the California Honeydrops and more.

Goose will then cross the Atlantic for a much-anticipated headline tour of Europe and the UK, starting with two nights at London’s Electric Brixton (May 22-23). Highlights include a two-night stand in Amsterdam at Melkweg (May 27-28), a headline show at Élysée-Montmartre in Paris (June 1) and a top-billed festival performance at NorthSide 2026 at Aarhus, Denmark ((June 5).
