Led Zeppelin Officially Announces “The Led Zeppelin Legacy Tour 2026” — A Triumphant Return to the Stage After Nearly Two Decades
In a stunning revelation that has rocked the music world, Led Zeppelin has officially announced their long-awaited 2026 reunion tour, marking their first full-scale live performances since their iconic 2007 show at London’s O2 Arena. The tour, titled “The Led Zeppelin Legacy Tour 2026,” is set to begin on June 10, 2026, at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, launching what promises to be one of the most historic rock events of the 21st century.
A Legacy Reignited
For decades, fans have hoped for more than just a one-off performance. Whispers of a reunion have floated in the air ever since the 2007 Celebration Day concert, which featured Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and Jason Bonham — son of the late John Bonham — performing with electrifying chemistry. That night became legend.
Now, almost 20 years later, Led Zeppelin is officially reigniting that magic with a global stadium tour that will celebrate their unmatched influence on rock music, their musical evolution, and the generations of fans who never had the chance to see them live.The Official Announcement
At a special press event streamed live from Abbey Road Studios, the surviving members—Robert Plant (vocals), Jimmy Page (guitar), and John Paul Jones (bass/keys)—stood side by side for the first time in years, flanked by Jason Bonham, who will again step in to honor his father’s legendary drumming legacy.
Robert Plant, visibly moved, said:“This isn’t about nostalgia. It’s about bringing the fire of this music to life again—loud, raw, and real. We owe it to ourselves, and to everyone who kept believing this day would come.”
Jimmy Page added:“There’s never been a band like Zeppelin. And there never will be again. This tour is about celebrating the power of that legacy… and setting stages on fire once more.”The Tour Dates and Scope
