There’s still a little venom left in Sting.
The former frontman for The Police just announced he’s extended his ongoing ‘Sting 3.0 Tour’ into 2026.
His 12 new shows are set to take place from May 9-25 with guitarist Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas, both of whom have collaborated with him since May 2024.
Prior to the run, the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has a pair of shows lined up Atlantic City’s Borgata Casino and Event Center on Friday, Nov. 14 and Saturday, Nov. 15.
2026 concerts will take place all over North America and include a three-night stint at Vienna, VA’s Wolf Trap from May 21-23.
At all shows, the “power trio” dig deep into the 17-time Grammy winner’s catalog. According to Set List FM, Sting, Miller and Maas performed 21 songs at their most recent gig in London on Oct. 28.
Highlights included fan favorite throwbacks from his time with The Police like “Roxanne,” “Every Breath You Take,” “Walking On The Moon,” “Message in a Bottle” and “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic” as well as popular solo cuts like “Fields of Gold,” “Fragile” and “Desert Rose” among others.
“Sting’s tenure in The Police is legendary, and his return to a threesome – dubbed Sting 3.0 – finds him as frisky and engaged as ever,” USA Today noted in a review of an October 2024 concert in Maryland. “…the precision and efficiency of this trio isn’t surprising considering the tour started overseas in May, but their potency is still impressive.”
