Beach Boys Cancel Final 2026 Concert in Bristol, Virginia
The Beach Boys have cancelled their last scheduled concert of 2026, a November 13 show at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Bristol, Virginia, Rolling Stone reported on 9 November.
The Bristol show was already a moved date. It had first been set for August 8, 2026, and the band postponed that show along with its other July and August dates. In late July, the group said the break would give singer Mike Love time to recharge. North American shows that had been scheduled from July 23 to September 3 were pushed into the fall.
That leaves one concert on the band's public tour listings. It is a makeup date on May 8, 2027, at the River Cree Resort and Casino in Enoch, Alberta, Canada.
The band's name was also missing from a Florida stage this week. John Stamos and the California Sound took the stage at Epcot, the theme park at Walt Disney World, on November 11 and 12, in place of the Beach Boys.
Membership has changed too. Bruce Johnston, who joined the band in 1965, left its touring lineup in February. An October 3 private event at the Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach in Dana Point, California, went ahead, with Mike Love performing from a chair.
For a band that has spent six decades on the road, a calendar with a single date left is a sharp change. The May 2027 show in Alberta is the next performance on the public schedule, and it is the one fans can still plan around.
