Nas has select live dates on the schedule for 2026, and hip-hop fans should be paying attention. The Queensbridge legend is teaming up with The Roots for "A Great Night in Hip Hop" -- a series of shows hitting Denver (August 25 at The Junkyard), San Diego (August 27 at Petco Park), Long Beach (August 28 at Long Beach Amphitheater), and Mountain View (August 29 at Shoreline Amphitheatre). Special guest Jadakiss joins on select dates. Nas also appears at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival earlier in the spring, making 2026 a year with multiple chances to see one of hip-hop's greatest live.
Nas needs no introduction. His 1994 debut Illmatic is universally recognized as one of the greatest albums in any genre, and his career has only grown from there -- It Was Written, Stillmatic, God's Son, Life Is Good, and the Grammy-winning King's Disease series have kept him at the forefront of hip-hop for over three decades. Paired with The Roots -- the legendary Philadelphia crew known for their virtuoso live performances and their role as the house band on The Tonight Show -- this combination is a dream lineup for anyone who loves real hip-hop performed at the highest level.
While no major named tour has been announced beyond these select dates, Nas has historically added shows throughout the year as demand builds.

Nas is widely regarded as one of the greatest MCs in the history of hip-hop. Born Nasir bin Olu Dara Jones in Queensbridge, New York in 1973, he burst onto the scene with his 1994 debut album Illmatic, which is consistently ranked among the greatest albums ever made in any genre. The album's vivid storytelling, intricate lyricism, and production from DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Q-Tip, and Large Professor set a new standard for what hip-hop could achieve artistically. Over the next three decades, Nas released a string of acclaimed albums including It Was Written, Stillmatic, God's Son, Life Is Good, and the Grammy-winning King's Disease series.
In 2026, Nas has select live dates on the schedule including "A Great Night in Hip Hop" shows with The Roots and special guest Jadakiss. These dates hit Denver, San Diego, Long Beach, and Mountain View in late August. Nas also appears at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. A Nas concert is a masterclass in lyrical hip-hop -- expect deep cuts from Illmatic alongside hits like If I Ruled the World, One Mic, Made You Look, and I Can.
