Phoenix / Glendale is one stop on The R&B Tour 2026 - a single show at State Farm Stadium on Sep 29, 2026. The 2026 R&B Tour is the long-anticipated co-headlining stadium run from Usher Raymond and Chris Brown, with 33+ confirmed dates produced by Live Nation.
State Farm Stadium (Cardinals' home) has retractable roof and retractable field - the field is rolled outside the stadium during concerts to preserve grass, leaving a concrete surface. Excellent acoustics in this configuration; the stadium becomes essentially an arena. Phoenix late September is still 95°F+ during the day - gates open at 5:30 PM but stay in your AC car until 6:15 PM, then walk in 10 minutes. Glendale Avenue traffic clears within 30 minutes post-show.
Clear bag, max 12"×6"×12".
Stadium lots $35-50. Westgate Entertainment District lots $20 (10 min walk).
No light rail. Valley Metro bus #531 to 95th Avenue.

The 2026 R&B Tour opens with a 20-minute joint medley featuring both Usher and Chris Brown on stage together - this is the ONLY time both artists perform together until the encore. If you arrive late, you miss it. The joint medley starts at 7:05 PM, not after an opening act. There is no traditional opening act on this tour.
