Three Nights with They Might Be Giants
The Bigger Show Tour. Only 2026 area appearances!
Ages 16+
3 very different shows. 2 "Evening with” performances. 8-piece band.
3 horns. 2 sets. 0 openers. Starts early. Gets loud.
Renowned for their infamous live shows, They Might Be Giants has now expanded to an eight-piece band, including a three-piece horn section. Audiences can expect a spontaneous, sprawling, and utterly enthralling musical event unlike any other. Yes, TMBG is in top form and back on the road with a show that is truly ever-evolving. The first set of each night spotlights a different album, while the second set will draw from every era of their career — from the earliest days of Dial-A-Song and the platinum album Flood to their brand new 2026 releases. With all the favorites, remarkable deep cuts, and dazzling musical improvisations, each performance is a distinct celebration of the band’s singular songbook. These shows, along with their new stand-alone EP, Eyeball, and an all-new album arriving in spring, are all testament to the fact that this band will not slow down.
A limited number of multi-night ticket packages are available for purchase — that means reduced ticketing fees!
This event is Ages 16 & Over. Any ticket holder unable to present valid identification indicating that they are at least 16 years of age will not be admitted to this event, and will not be eligible for a refund. Valid photo ID required at door for entry.
THERE IS A STRICT TICKET LIMIT. ORDERS EXCEEDING SET TICKET LIMITS ARE SUBJECT TO CANCELLATION WITHOUT NOTICE.
