Fleetwood Mac Announce 2026 Farewell Tour: ‘One Last Ride’ Marks the End of a Rock Legend’s Era — Dates and Cities Revealed

After over five decades of shaping the sound of rock and pop music, the legendary band Fleetwood Mac has officially announced their final tour, aptly titled “One Last Ride.” The announcement, which came via a heartfelt video message from the band, has sent waves of emotion through the music community, signaling the end of an era for one of the most iconic groups in music history.

The “One Last Ride” farewell tour will span 12 cities across North America and Europe, giving fans one final opportunity to witness the magic of Fleetwood Mac live. The tour is set to kick off on June 5, 2026, in London—where the band originally formed—before making its way through major cities including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, Berlin, and Paris, concluding on August 15 in San Francisco, a city closely tied to their legacy.

In a press release, drummer and founding member Mac Fleetwood shared, “This isn’t goodbye to the music, but it is goodbye to the road. We’ve had an extraordinary run, and now it’s time to say thank you in the best way we know how—through the music, one last time.” The band has confirmed that the tour will feature the classic lineup, with Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie (through archival and tribute performances), John McVie, and Lindsey Buckingham all participating in various capacities.

What sets this farewell tour apart is its ambitious multimedia approach. Each concert will blend live performance with never-before-seen archival footage, behind-the-scenes interviews, and immersive visuals that chronicle Fleetwood Mac’s rich history. The experience promises to be more than a concert—it will be a cinematic celebration of a career that spanned generations.

The tour will include tributes to late members, especially Christine McVie, whose passing in 2022 deeply affected the band and fans alike. A segment of each show will be dedicated to her legacy, with guest artists stepping in to perform her classic contributions such as “Songbird” and “Everywhere.” These moments are expected to be some of the most emotionally powerful highlights of the tour.

Fleetwood Mac’s impact on music cannot be overstated. From their blues beginnings in the late ’60s to their meteoric rise with the release of Rumours in 1977, the band has sold over 120 million records worldwide and earned a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Their storytelling, musical versatility, and turbulent yet compelling interpersonal dynamics have made them one of the most studied and revered bands in rock history.

Fans can expect a setlist filled with timeless classics like “Go Your Own Way,” “Dreams,” “The Chain,” “Landslide,” and “Rhiannon,” along with a few rare tracks chosen to represent lesser-known gems in the band’s expansive catalog. According to insiders, each setlist will slightly vary by city, adding a unique layer for collectors and superfans.

Tickets for the farewell tour will go on sale beginning Friday, July 12, 2025, with exclusive pre-sale access available to fan club members and newsletter subscribers. Demand is expected to be unprecedented, given that many fans have waited years for the full lineup to reunite on stage one final time.

In addition to the concert experience, the band announced a deluxe box set titled Fleetwood Mac: The Final Tour Collection, which will include remastered live recordings from the tour, a photo book, and a documentary chronicling the final chapter of their career. A companion streaming series is also rumored to be in production.

Stevie Nicks, often the emotional voice of the band, shared in her message, “This is for everyone who has lived with our music through heartbreak, healing, and everything in between. We want to bring closure in the most beautiful way we can.” Her words reflect the deep bond between Fleetwood Mac and its audience—a connection built not just on music, but on shared emotion.

As the tour approaches, social media has exploded with tributes, throwback videos, and fan art under trending hashtags like #OneLastRide and #FleetwoodMacForever. Music critics and fellow artists have also chimed in, calling the tour a “historic farewell” and “the final chapter of a truly legendary book.”

Fleetwood Mac’s “One Last Ride” promises to be more than a tour—it’s a collective goodbye to a band that gave the world songs of sorrow, strength, and soul. For fans old and new, it will be an unforgettable celebration of artistry, resilience, and the enduring power of music.
