Live Nation launches Summer of Live, with one week of discount ticket sales.

The excitement of the summer concert season is upon us, and Live Nation is taking it up a notch. The entertainment company has officially announced the return of its highly anticipated Summer of Live promotion, a massive celebration of live music that makes seeing your favorite artists more affordable than ever. For one week only, fans can snag tickets to more than 4,000 shows across the U.S. and Canada for just $30.
The hallmark of this year’s deal is transparency and value. In a move that concertgoers will surely appreciate, the $30 price point includes all fees upfront, with only applicable taxes added at checkout. This initiative aims to bring fans back to the heart of the music experience—the real, in-the-moment energy of a live performance that simply cannot be replicated through a screen.
The roster for the 2026 Summer of Live is impressively diverse, ensuring there's something for every musical taste. Spanning genres from Country and Rock to Hip-Hop and Pop, the lineup features heavy hitters and fan favorites including James Taylor, Luke Bryan, Kesha, Wu Tang Clan, mgk, Rod Stewart and the Goo Goo Dolls. And the venues are just as diverse, including local clubs, grand theaters and massive arenas and amphitheaters.
Securing these deals requires the right timing, so take note. While the general public can access the $30 tickets starting Wednesday, April 29 through Tuesday, May 5, there are several ways to get ahead of the crowd. Live Nation All Access members—a program that is free to join—receive early access from April 23 to April 28. Additionally, T-Mobile customers can get in on a special early access window on Tuesday, April 28.
To get your tickets, head to LiveNation.com/SummerofLive. You can filter by artist, venue or city to find participating shows nearby. Once you've selected a show, look for the Summer of Live Promotion ticket type to lock in the $30 rate. With inventory limited and demand expected to be high, you'll want to plan ahead and act fast. It's your chance to catch your summer soundtrack artists live.
