NEARLY 50 YEARS LATER: STING RETURNS TO
THÉÂTRE ST-DENIS ON OCTOBER 26 & 27, 2026
TICKETS GO ON SALE
ON FRIDAY, MARCH 6 AT 10AM ET
MONTRÉAL, QC – March 2, 2026 – Espace St-Denis and evenko proudly announce the return of STING to Montréal for two exclusive nights at the iconic Théâtre St-Denis on October 26 and 27, 2026. Tickets go on sale Friday, March 6 at 10 a.m. ET at espacestdenis.com. A presale for fans registered to the Théâtre St-Denis newsletter will take place on March 5 at 10 a.m. ET. To sign up, click here.
This marks a long-awaited and significant return for STING to both Théâtre St-Denis, a venue deeply connected to the artist’s history, and Montréal. On November 17, 1979, The Police played their very first Montréal concert at Théâtre St-Denis while just beginning to break through in North America. STING has since reflected with emotion on his early Montréal performances, notably during concerts at MTELUS in 2017 and at the Bell Centre in 2022, reaffirming the enduring bond between the artist and the city. Nearly five decades later, his return to Théâtre St-Denis brings the story full circle.

Following a series of sold-out shows and rave reviews across Europe, North America, Asia, Africa, South America, and beyond, 17-time GRAMMY Award winner STING has announced a new fall leg of his acclaimed “STING 3.0” Tour across North America, presented by the Cherrytree Music Company and Live Nation.
Accompanied by longtime guitarist and collaborator Dominic Miller and dynamic drummer Chris Maas (Mumford & Sons, Maggie Rogers), the trio delivers a powerful and intimate concert experience, reinterpreting Sting’s most celebrated songs and deep cuts through the lens of a tight three-piece arrangement.
The newly announced 2026 dates will begin in Vancouver, BC, with a two-night run at Queen Elizabeth Theatre on October 5th and 6th before continuing through Seattle, Minneapolis, Rockford, St. Louis, Indianapolis, Montréal, Akron, Cincinnati, Wallingford, Brooklyn, and Tampa, with performances in Nashville and Pittsburgh to be announced soon. These additional shows include a special six-night mini residency with special guest Fiction Plane at the historic Brooklyn Paramount, the newly reopened 1928 venue that once hosted legendary artists like Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, and Miles Davis. Full itinerary and ticketing information is included below.
A groundbreaking artist both as a solo performer and as the frontman/bassist and principal songwriter for The Police, Sting continues to redefine and expand his musical horizons. Under the management of Martin Kierszenbaum/Cherrytree Music Company, his innovative spirit remains central to the “STING 3.0” Tour, which spotlights new creative interpretations of his timeless catalog and inspired his latest single, “I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart)” — mixed by four-time GRAMMY Award-winning engineer Robert Orton, released on Cherrytree Music Company/Interscope Records. Additionally, a new live album, STING 3.0 LIVE, is now available digitally, on CD and on 180g vinyl. Also recorded on the “STING 3.0” Tour, STING 3.0 LIVE is a collection of his greatest hits, including “Be Still My Beating Heart,” which has never-before been released as a live version. The 10-song digital album also features a live recording of “Fragile,” Sting’s 1987 single, which was recently covered by a children’s choir in an episode of the Netflix miniseries Adolescence.
Members of Sting’s Fan Club will have first access to tickets beginning Tuesday, March 3 at sting.com, with additional presales throughout the week. The general on sale will begin Friday, March 6 at 10AM local time on sting.com. Tickets for all other previously announced “STING 3.0” tour dates are available now.
