Usher Raymond & Chris Brown Add Third MetLife Stadium Show

GRAMMY Award-winning icons USHER and Chris Brown today announce eight new stadium dates for The R&B Tour, extending the co-headlining run to 59 total dates following incredible fan demand and a successful first stretch across North America. USHER and Chris Brown's The R&B Tour will bring the tour to MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ, for a third show on October 15, 2026. The two performed at MetLife Stadium for two previously sold-out shows earlier this month.

The newly announced dates include first-time stops in Baltimore, Cincinnati, Columbia and Indianapolis, along with additional performances in several of the tour’s highest-demand markets, including a fifth show in Atlanta, fourth in Los Angeles, and third in both East Rutherford and Miami.

Since kicking off with a sold-out show at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver in June, The R&B Tour has quickly become one of the summer’s biggest live music events, bringing USHER and Chris Brown’s career-spanning catalogs together in a nearly three-hour stadium production. The tour has also earned strong reviews for its ambitious production and unique co-headlining format, which sees USHER and Chris Brown trading the spotlight throughout nine cinematic acts rather than performing traditional back-to-back headline sets. 

The show moves seamlessly between their respective catalogs, featuring hits including “U Remind Me,” “With You” and “Yeah!,” along with joint performances including “New Flame.” Throughout the night, the two artists also pay tribute to the R&B and music legends who helped pave the way, with special moments honoring Prince, Michael Jackson and Marvin Gaye woven into the show.

Tour Success Highlights Include:

●      More than $101 million in box-office grosses across the tour’s first eight shows.

●      Over 566,000 tickets sold across the first 13 concerts, all sold out.

●      The tour set a new record at Detroit’s Ford Field, becoming the first concert tour in the venue’s nearly 25-year history to play three consecutive nights.

●      The R&B Tour’s three-night run at Northwest Stadium in Washington, D.C. drew over 122k fans, setting a new venue attendance record and marking the first-ever three-night concert run in the stadium’s history. The run also included one of the top five highest-grossing shows in the venue's 29 year history.

●      First multi-night concert at Birmingham, AL’s Protective Stadium.

●      Since the tour kicked off, Chris Brown and USHER have amassed a combined over 700M U.S. audio streams. 

The production also features Mario, Eric Bellinger and Tank, who join Chris Brown throughout the show as live backing vocalists and step into the spotlight during the evening to perform some of their own biggest hits. Throughout the run, fans have been treated to special surprise guests including 50 Cent, Mary J. Blige, Fat Joe, Jadakiss, Ashanti, Method Man, and Future.
