SAMMY HAGAR & THE BEST OF ALL WORLDS BAND HEADS TO THE O2

Rock icon Sammy Hagar today announced that his top-grossing Best of All Worlds Tour is headed to the UK for a huge arena tour and appearing at The O2 on Thursday 9 July 2026. The Red Rocker will be joined by his supergroup The Best of All Worlds Band, including legendary guitarist Joe Satriani, fellow Rock & Roll Hall of Famer and longtime Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony, and powerhouse drummer Kenny Aronoff, with special guest Joan Jett & The Blackhearts and opening act JAYLER.

Priority Tickets are available to O2 and Virgin Media customers at https://priority.o2.co.uk/ from 10am on Wednesday 29 October and go on general sale at 10am on Friday 31 October via www.theo2.co.uk.

Sammy returns to the UK for his first tour since 1996, with a setlist celebrating his legendary 50+ year catalogue of hits, including the deepest dive yet into his tenure with Van Halen.

“I can’t wait to aross the Atlantic with the Best of All Worlds Band,” said Sammy Hagar. “Fans in the UK and Europe have waited a long time—and so have I!”

The July 2026 tour will see Sammy Hagar and his Best of All Worlds Band playing a packed setlist of career-spanning hits, from seminal breakouts with Montrose, his iconic solo hits, and a deep dive into his tenure with Van Halen, Chickenfoot, and everything in between, including the likes of  ‘Finish What Ya Started,’ ‘5150,’ ‘Your Love is Driving Me Crazy,’ ‘Best of Both Worlds,’ ‘Poundcake,’ ‘Why Can’t This Be Love,’ ‘I Can’t Drive 55’ and so many more. This will be the first time Sammy Hagar has performed Van Halen classics in the UK since the band’s iconic Wembley Stadium shows 30 years ago.

Joining them on the tour will be the iconic Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, with her first UK live shows in 15 years. Joan Jett is known as the Godmother of Punk, starting her music career in 1975 with The Runaways. She went on to form Joan Jett & The Blackhearts in 1980 and release some huge hits, and fans can expect to see them play the likes of ‘I Love Rock N’ Roll’, ‘Bad Reputation’ and ‘Cherry Bomb’ (taken from Joan Jett’s career with The Runaways).

In step with the excitement of their UK tour announcement is the band’s just released live album, Sammy Hagar & The Best of All Worlds Band – The Residency. The electrifying 19-track album recorded during Hagar’s hit Las Vegas residency at Dolby Live at Park MGM in 2025, captures the raw energy and incredible hit setlist, which will be showcased live on tour in the UK.

For more than four decades, Sammy Hagar has been recognised as one of the most accomplished lead singers and songwriters in rock music. He has sold over 50 million albums, earned 25 Platinum records, won a Grammy Award, been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame with Van Halen, received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last year, and he’s showing no signs of slowing down.
