Ayo, Diana Ross is not taking any summers off. The legendary singer dropped her full DIANA IN MOTION tour schedule on Instagram this week, and it’s a massive run. Seventeen stops from July 29 through September 2, 2026. She’s covering Europe, Canada, and both coasts of the United States. For anyone keeping score, that’s a serious amount of ground.
On the announcement, Ross wrote, “I get to see beautiful faces in Europe and Canada this summer before I return home with my DIANA IN MOTION performances on the East and West Coast. I’m so so excited to see you.”
That excitement reads real. The schedule is absolutely stacked.
The European leg opens July 29 at Lochotin Amphitheatre in Plzen, Czech Republic. She follows that with a July 31 date at the Lokerse Feesten festival in Lokeren, Belgium. Brighton Pride in Brighton, UK on August 2 is the only festival stop on the entire tour. Brighton Pride draws massive crowds every year. Diana Ross headlining it is a full-circle moment. She’s been a gay icon for decades, and that audience is going to bring every bit of energy she deserves.
Canada gets one date on this run. That’s August 14 at Casino Rama Resort in Rama, Ontario. One night to represent the whole country. Ontario better show up.
The US East Coast run starts August 16 at the Palace Stamford in Stamford, Connecticut. She hits Lancaster, Pennsylvania on August 18 at AMT Shows. Wolf Trap in Vienna, Virginia comes on August 19, one of the best outdoor venues in the country. Atlantic City follows on August 21 at The Ocean. Bethlehem, Pennsylvania is August 22 at Wind Creek Event Center. Brookville, New York wraps the East Coast stretch on August 23 at Tilles Center. Six cities in eight days. Ross is not out here for a light tour.
The West Coast closing run is the reward for everyone on that side of the country. Santa Barbara gets her on August 27 at the Santa Barbara Bowl. Costa Mesa follows on August 28 at the OC Fair. She moves north to Saratoga at the Mountain Winery on August 30, then Napa at Blue Note Napa on September 1. The whole run closes in Reno, Nevada at Grand Sierra Resort on September 2.
Diana Ross fronted The Supremes and helped put Motown on the map in the 1960s. Her solo run through the 70s and 80s produced massive hits. They still knock today. She’s one of the best-selling music artists in history. Seeing her book seventeen shows in six weeks at 82 years old is genuinely impressive. Not many artists can say that.
Brighton Pride is getting the most online buzz right now, and that makes total sense. It’s a massive festival with an audience built for her energy. Her voice still hits, and she clearly isn’t slowing down.
Tickets and tour details are linked in her bio. Catch the opening night in Czech Republic or close it out in Reno. Either way, this is a tour worth planning around.
