No Doubt Tees Up Sphere ‘Limited Engagement’ for May 2026

No Doubt is officially set to perform at the Sphere – albeit as part of a “limited engagement” as opposed to a full-fledged residency.

Time will tell whether said engagement ultimately adds dates and evolves into an extensive concert series. As things stand, No Doubt has committed to an initial round of shows in May 2026 – and interestingly, only some of the six planned performances will take place during the weekend.

Specifically, the four-piece band has condensed its Sphere experience into two weeks, with the first concert teed up for Wednesday, May 6th, ahead of outings on Friday the 8th and Saturday the 9th. An identical schedule is attached to the following week, when No Doubt is booked to entertain fans on the 13th, 15th, and 16th.

In any event, the Sphere stops “mark the band’s first extended run of shows in nearly 14 years,” Live Nation emphasized, with No Doubt having timed up the announcement to coincide with the 30th anniversary of Tragic Kingdom.

On the ticketing-availability front, an artist presale will kick off at 10 AM PST on Wednesday, October 15th. However, fans must sign up for early access by the same time on Monday the 13th. Apparently, Ticketmaster’s done away with presale codes this time around; “access is tied to your Ticketmaster account, and anyone who signs up can join the sale.”

Meanwhile, the general onsale will initiate on Friday the 17th, and those interested in bundling tickets and accommodations can buy passes via Vibee starting later today. Per the appropriate website, No Doubt’s “signature” Vibee attendance option, including a two-night Venetian stay and the actual tickets, starts “at $995 per person” based on double occupancy.

And the VIP counterpart, carrying an eye-watering $1,333 price tag, includes the mentioned perks, early concert access, and more.

As for the engagement’s significance from the perspective of the Sphere itself, at this point, it seems safe to say that legacy acts have found a home at the unique venue.

Of course, prominent artists with multi-decade careers under their belts aren’t alone in achieving success at the Sphere.

But the Eagles’ residency has been extended multiple times now, and the Backstreet Boys, having dropped a self-titled debut album nearly three decades ago, will begin a separate residency yet the day after Christmas. Previously, U2 put on 40 Sphere shows, and more recently, the venue’s twist on The Wizard of Oz (1939) has been moving a substantial number of passes.
