Sting announces 12-date 2026 U.S. tour amid royalty dispute with former Police members.

Sting has announced a 12-date 2026 U.S. leg of his Sting 3.0 tour, running from May 9 in Durant, Oklahoma, to May 25 in Richmond, Virginia, with stops in major cities including Atlanta, Austin, and Houston, plus a three-night engagement at Wolf Trap. The tour features Sting with guitarist Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas, continuing the trio format from his 2025 shows. Fan club presales begin November 4, with general on-sale starting November 7. The announcement comes amid a legal dispute with former Police bandmates Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland over royalties, which Sting’s team denies, claiming they have been “substantially overpaid.”
