Noah Kahan to play first major ticketed show at UT Austin stadium in 30+ years

Folk artist Noah Kahan is following up his sold-out The Great Divide World Tour with a newly announced global stadium tour. It will stop in Austin at the Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium on May 15, 2027.

The Last Of The Bugs World Tour will start April 24 in Athens, Georgia, and end at an already-announced date in London on July 25. In addition to Austin, it will stop in Houston at Reliant Stadium on May 12.

The Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium is an unusual choice for this tour, and in fact, it's the first major ticketed show at the University of Texas venue in more than 30 years.

“Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium has a 100-plus year history of hosting major events in Austin, including some pretty spectacular concerts...” said Chris Del Conte, Vice President and Lois and Richard Folger Athletics Director, in a press release. “Noah Kahan’s The Last Of The Bugs World Tour is expected to sell out football stadiums across the country, and we are excited to have his stop at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium further cement Austin’s reputation as the Live Music Capital of the World.”
