Jefferson Starship<\/a> promised additional stops when they confirmed 2026’s packed initial concert calendar: “If you don’t see your city yet, don’t worry,” the group said in an official statement<\/a>. “There’s much more to come.”<\/p>\n

They weren’t kidding: In all, Jefferson Starship still has some 30 year-ending concerts across North America, after previously extending<\/a> this tour in February. The band also has four stops already locked in for 2027, including a couple of cruises originating in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. <\/p>\n

Check out the complete list of dates, cities and venues down below, along with a tour preview clip from the band. Latest are in bold. For more information and tickets, visit Jefferson Starship’s official website<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Where Is Jefferson Airplane Playing in 2026?<\/h3>\n

It’s been a busy, star-studded period. Jefferson Starship made select U.S. appearances with the Marshall Tucker Band<\/a> earlier in the year, before opening for Foreigner<\/a> in the U.K. They’re still appearing<\/a> as a special guest on Deep Purple<\/a>‘s ongoing tour with Kansas<\/a>. (Those dates have an asterisk below.) <\/p>\n

Among 2026’s other remaining highlights for Jefferson Starship are stops in Kansas City and Atlantic City, New Jersey, as well as a guest slot in October’s Rockin’ in Paradise<\/a> with Styx<\/a> + Friends 2026 in Florida’s Miramar Beach.<\/p>\n

Jefferson Starship emerged from the ashes of Jefferson Airplane<\/a> in the early ’70s. Their most recent studio project<\/a> remains 2020’s Mother of the Sun<\/em>. Former singer Grace Slick<\/a> returned to co-write a politically charged song<\/a> for the EP titled “It’s About Time.”<\/p>\n

The group is led by long-standing co-founder<\/a> David Freiberg. He memorably co-wrote Jefferson Starship’s No. 14 hit “Jane<\/a>.” Their ’80s-era drummer Donny Baldwin returned in 2008, the same year co-lead singer Cathy Richardson joined the lineup<\/a>.<\/p>\n
