Bob Dylan Extends Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour with New Crop of US Stops

Bob Dylan’s roadrunner status ceases to fade. After turning in the latest European leg of his perpetual Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour, the Greenwich Village bard has added an extensive series of live performances to his calendar. The impending run will begin on March 21 at the Orpheum Theater in Omaha, Neb., and conclude over a month later on May 1 at the Abilene Auditorium in Abilene, Texas. 

Dylan alluded to the extension of his Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour last month on November 13 via Twitter/ X: “To all fans and followers of Rough and Rowdy Ways Show. We will see you early Spring 2026, will let you know where and when later.” 

True to his word, the musician’s new dates were posted on his official website, totaling 27 stops that will take the esteemed lyricist to Midwest and Southern locations. After submitting his first night on the road for this run, Dylan and his band will continue to Sioux Falls, S.D., before the artist’s native Minnesota, on March 24. 

The jaunt continues with projected evenings spent in Iowa City (March 25), La Crosse, Wis. (March 27), Rockford, Ill. (March 28), and Waukegan, Ill. (March 30). The next night, Dylan will play at Emens Auditorium in Muncie, Ind., with a trio of ensuing dates in Michigan to follow, including April 4 at the Masonic Temple Theatre in Detroit. He’ll follow up with a night in Louisville, before swinging through Ohio for three additional stops. 

On April 14, Dylan will head South for a night on the stage of the Knoxville Civic Auditorium in Knoxville, Tenn. He’ll continue with stops in Bowling Green, Ky. (April 16), Chattanooga, Tenn. (April 17), Asheville, N.C. (April 19), Spartanburg, S.C. (April 20), Macon, Ga. (April 22), and even more of the region, Dothan, Ala. (April 23), Jackson, Miss. (April 25), Baton Rouge, La. (April 27) and Shreveport, La. (April 28). 

The final stops on this leg of the Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour will take the bandleader to The Lone Star State for a pair of concerts, at Cowan Center in Tyler, Texas (April 29) and Abilene Auditorium in Abilene, Texas (May 1). The new tour dates follow Dylan’s pre-Thanksgiving jaunt in Europe and the UK, which included a series of Irish shout-outs to friends and collaborators in song, including the debut of Van Morrison’s “Going Down to Bangor.”

Dylan initially launched the Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour in support of his 39th studio album, which arrived in 2020. The first run of shows in support of the record occurred in 2021, with a projected end date of 2024. Despite the supposed deadline, Dylan stretched the tour and has continued to add dates under the album umbrella. 

Tickets for the latest extension of the Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour go on sale beginning Friday, December 12, 2025. For more information, visit www.bobdylan.com/on-tour.
