Where Can I Buy Tickets: Luke Combs 2026 Tickets
Luke Combs continues his 2026 My Kinda Saturday Night World Tour with an keenly awaited show at South Bend's Notre Dame Stadium. Combs is due to headline the colossal Indiana venue - which can welcome around 77,000 fans - on Saturday, April 18th.
The North Carolina native is bringing with him a star-studded array of openers, with Combs’ 2026 shows feeling more like mini-festivals than standard country concerts. Combs is supported by Dierks Bentley, Ty Myers, Jake Worthington and Thelma & James.
Doors open at 5pm, with the first act - Thelma & James - expected to take the stage shortly after at 5:20pm. Combs tends to start his set at around 9pm, finishing at roughly 11pm - but as always, all of the evening's set times are subject to change.
There's a strict bag policy in place, which you can check out in full HERE. As for merchandise, judging by Combs’ 2026 tour-stops so far, there is an excitingly broad range of new tees, hoodies, koozies, caps and more all themed around Combs’ new album, The Way I Am, and his accompanying My Kinda Saturday Night Tour.
There's a fun black t-shirt, for instance, emblazoned with the name of the tour on the front in a neon-bar-sign-inspired design, and all the dates on the back. There's also a camo tee with Combs’ signature skull-and-beard logo, along with a handful of other tour t-shirt options. In addition to a plethora of caps and hoodies, it looks like the ‘Beautiful Crazy’ hitmaker is selling his now-iconic Columbia PFG performance shirt for $75, which Combs famously wears for every single live show.
At Notre Dame, as well as being accessible on show-day, merch booths at Gate B and at Hammes Notre Dame Bookstore Lobby will be open from 12 - 5pm on Friday, April 17th.
Merchandise will be available at Notre Dame Stadium at the locations below:
- Gate B (Merch Trailer - Open at 12pm on show-day)
- North Library Lawn (Merch Stand - Open at 12pm on show-day)
- Gate B (Merch Stand - Open at 3pm on show-day)
Similarly, Combs’ 2026 setlist is overflowing with hits. Thankfully, he's so far been keeping all his biggest heaters in there, such as ’Beer Never Broke My Heart’, ‘Fast Car’, ‘Beautiful Crazy’, ‘She Got the Best Of Me’, ‘When It Rains It Pours’, ‘Hurricane’, ‘Lovin’ On You’, ‘Ain't No Love in Oklahoma’ and ’Where the Wild Things Are’.
Another song we can say with almost certainty - although you never know - that Combs will perform is his rowdy earworm, ‘My Kinda Saturday Night’, as it inspired the tour's name. Throughout 2026, Combs appears to be kicking off his set with this smash.
We hope he mixes things up in terms of which of the new songs he performs throughout the tour, but based off his 2026 setlist so far, you can look forward to hearing The Way I Am stand-outs such as ‘Rethink Some Things’, ‘Tell ‘Em About Tonight’, ‘Sleepless in a Hotel Room’, ‘Be By You’, ‘I Ain't No Cowboy’ and ‘Back in the Saddle’.
From time to time, Combs has also been covering Alex Warren's hit single, ’Ordinary’, which the duo teamed up to perform at Lollapalooza in Chicago last summer. At his previous date in Virginia, Combs replaced ‘Ordinary’ with ‘Alcohol of Fame’, one of our favourites from The Way I Am, as well as adding in ‘Soon As I Get Home’.
There are a range of parking options if you're planning to drive to Notre Dame Stadium, and you can purchase parking passes for a number of nearby sites via ParkMobile HERE.
Combs’ 2026 My Kinda Saturday Night run is already proving one of the most popular country music tours of the year so far, so demand for tickets is through-the-roof. Nonetheless, at the time of writing, there are a few Notre Dame Stadium passes still on-sale so keep an eye on Ticketmaster if you're still looking for a ticket.
Excitingly, Combs has been switching up his staging a little in 2026, with the two-time CMA Entertainer of the Year performing ‘in the round’ from a circular stage at the heart of the floor, ensuring attendees can get a good viewpoint wherever they're sat.
One thing is for sure - Combs will put on an electrifying show, with the country titan renowned for his varied, high-energy sets that combine his penchant for soulful, heartfelt ballads with his ability to deliver a soaring, galvanising barroom soundtrack.
