Garth Brooks will play his first Canadian shows on the Blame It All On My Roots Arena Tour at TD Coliseum in Hamilton, Ontario, on Friday, December 4 and Saturday, December 5, 2026. The two nights are also the tour's first December booking, and tickets go on sale Friday, November 6.

Why the Hamilton dates stand out

The stop brings Brooks back to a building he knows well. He first played there in fall 1996, when it was called Copps Coliseum, and returned in spring 2016 under the name FirstOntario Centre. This year's visit falls on the 30th anniversary of that debut and ends a decade away from the city.

The tour has moved more than 500,000 tickets this year, according to the venue and Brooks' website. Kansas City's T-Mobile Center hosts him November 6 and 7, Seattle's Climate Pledge Arena on November 13 and 14, and he is booked to close Stagecoach 2027 in Indio, California, in April.

Why you should go

  • The stage is built for every seat. Brooks performs in the round, with a 360-degree stage ringed by tall LED screens the production calls "the halo."
  • One price, any seat. End-stage and in-the-round seating are both offered, and every ticket costs the same CAD$199.95.
  • A career-spanning set. The show draws on hits from across his catalog, and the tour marks the return of his Drum Pod.
  • It is a rare Canadian stop. These are the only Canadian dates announced on the tour so far, according to his site.
  • It suits a night out. Doors open 60 to 90 minutes before the 8:00 p.m. start, and the venue is in central Hamilton.
