In a moment both nostalgic and bittersweet, music legends Stevie Nicks and Mick Fleetwood have officially announced Fleetwood Mac’s final farewell tour, set to begin in 2026. The announcement confirms what fans have both feared and hoped for: one last chance to experience the magic of Fleetwood Mac live, led by two of its most iconic members. Titled “The End of an Era”, the tour promises to be a celebration of the band’s enduring legacy, emotional milestones, and timeless sound.
This long-awaited reunion between Nicks and Fleetwood comes after years of speculation, solo projects, and internal band tension. Despite the absence of longtime guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and the late Christine McVie, Nicks and Fleetwood are bringing a renewed sense of unity and reverence to this final run. They’ve promised a show that honors the full spectrum of the band’s music and emotional history.
“This is our way of saying thank you and goodbye,” said Nicks in a heartfelt video announcement. “We’ve shared a lifetime of memories with our fans. This tour is for them — the ones who’ve been singing with us all these years.” Mick Fleetwood added, “It’s not just a concert, it’s a full-circle moment. It’s the last dance of a very long, beautiful dream.”
The tour is expected to span over 40 cities across North America, Europe, and select international venues, kicking off in Los Angeles on May 3, 2026, and wrapping in London on September 19, 2026. Among the major cities included are New York, Chicago, Toronto, Paris, Berlin, and Tokyo, with multiple nights planned in Fleetwood Mac’s spiritual hometown of San Francisco.
Setlists are being kept under wraps, but insiders hint at a career-spanning collection of hits — from the raw blues-rock roots of the early ’70s to the shimmering pop masterpieces of Rumours and the haunting introspection of Tusk. There will also be tributes to fallen bandmates, most notably Christine McVie, whose voice and keyboard work shaped much of the band’s most beloved material.
The stage design, according to early concept art, will be a breathtaking visual homage to the band’s past eras — incorporating ethereal backdrops, vintage tour footage, and an intimate acoustic segment that brings fans into the heart of the music. “We want it to feel like stepping into a living memory,” said tour creative director Tamlyn Rhodes.
What makes this farewell tour particularly emotional is the renewed closeness between Nicks and Fleetwood, whose bond has weathered decades of creative highs and personal lows. Both artists have emphasized the healing nature of this tour — not just for fans, but for themselves. “We’ve lost people, we’ve lost time,” Fleetwood said. “Now we want to end this journey with love, music, and grace.”
Fans worldwide have already taken to social media to share their gratitude, memories, and excitement for one final chance to experience the alchemy that only Fleetwood Mac can conjure. Hashtags like #MacFarewell, #EndOfAnEraTour, and #FleetwoodFinale are trending globally as presale tickets prepare to launch.
Music critics are hailing the announcement as a major cultural moment, noting that Fleetwood Mac’s influence transcends generations. From breakup ballads to stormy rock anthems, their music has remained deeply personal and universally resonant. The tour is expected to be one of the most in-demand events of the decade.
While the curtain will soon fall, the spirit of Fleetwood Mac is far from fading. As Nicks poignantly stated, “This is not the end of the music. It’s just the end of the road — and we’re going to walk it together, one last time.”
Tickets for The End of an Era: Fleetwood Mac’s Farewell Tour go on sale this fall, with VIP experiences, limited-edition merchandise, and tribute events to accompany the tour dates. For fans old and new, 2026 will mark a final, unforgettable chapter in one of rock music’s most legendary stories.
