Rock legend Sammy Hagar has announced that his top-grossing “Best Of All Worlds” tour is heading to the United Kingdom in July 2026 for a massive arena run. The Red Rocker will be joined by his supergroup, The Best Of All Worlds Band, featuring Joe Satriani, Michael Anthony, and Kenny Aronoff, with special guest Joan Jett & The Blackhearts and opening act Jayler.
This marks Hagar’s first U.K. tour since 1996, and he promises a career-spanning setlist that dives deep into his legendary 50-year catalog — including the most extensive selection yet from his Van Halen era.
“I can’t wait to cross the Atlantic with the Best Of All Worlds Band,” Hagar said. “Fans in the U.K. and Europe have waited a long time — and so have I!”
