Styx and Chicago Kick Off Summer Tour: Video, Set Lists

Styx and Chicago kicked off their 2026 summer tour Monday night in West Palm Beach, Florida.

The two Chicago-born bands, who are touring together for the first time, teamed up to deliver over three dozen songs at the ITHINK Financial Amphitheatre.

You can see the full set lists and fan-shot video below.

Chicago delivered a 23-song set that blended ’70s classics – including eight songs from their 1970 self-titled sophomore album – and ’80s radio hits such as “Hard to Say I’m Sorry” and “You’re the Inspiration.”

The shared bill allows members of both bands to geek out as fans as well. “I am a huge Chicago fan,” Styx singer / keyboardist Lawrence Gowan raved in a story posted to the band’s official website. “I went to their shows starting way back in the Terry Kath days. The first time I saw them live was just after [1972’s} Chicago V had come out and they played at Varsity Stadium in Toronto.”

Gowan and his bandmates kicked off their set with The Grand Illusion‘s “Fooling Yourself (Angry Young Man),” and spent the next 14 songs in the set to a blend of massive hits such as “The Best of Times” and “Come Sail Away,” relative rarities like “Lorelei” and “Light Up,” and newer tracks such as “Build and Destroy” and “Our Wonderful Lives.”
