Syracuse is one stop on The R&B Tour 2026 - a single show at JMA Wireless Dome on Aug 1, 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.
JMA Wireless Dome (formerly Carrier Dome) has a uniquely tight acoustic profile due to its smaller footprint. Sections 300-310 are notoriously low-ceiling in the upper bowl - taller fans should target Sections 100-130. The University Hill area floods with traffic 90 minutes after show end. Walk down to Marshall Street for post-show food - cheaper and 30 minutes faster than driving out.
