The Guess Who: Back After 23 Years to Rock Vancouver

Get ready, Vancouver! One of Canada’s biggest rock legends is coming to town for the first time in 23 years—and it is none other than The Guess Who. Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman are back on the road, touring under the iconic band name once again after settling their trademark differences. Fans can catch these rock heroes live at the brand-new Freedom Mobile Arch amphitheater as part of the 2026 PNE Fair on August 23rd.

The “Takin’ It Back” tour kicks off in May 2026 and will hit 12 Canadian cities, including Toronto, Calgary, Winnipeg, and the final stop at Vancouver’s PNE. This marks a huge moment for fans and the band alike, as Cummings and Bachman reunite under The Guess Who banner for the first time since 2003, the last time they toured together under that name.

Back in the 60s and 70s, The Guess Who dominated charts with timeless classics like “American Woman” and “Share The Land,” making history as the first Canadian band to top the Billboard charts in the US. Their powerhouse hits sold more records than the entire Canadian music industry combined by 1970—talk about legends! Cummings says, “Randy and I are thrilled that our songs have never gone away. That people still want to hear us perform them live. We are going to go out and honour the music.”

Vancouver’s new Freedom Mobile Arch is not just any stage; it is a cutting-edge amphitheater featuring a striking mass-timber roof, which reached a major milestone this summer. The venue will first shine as the epicenter of excitement for the official FIFA World Cup Fan Festival in 2026 before turning up the volume again for shows like The Guess Who’s. 

With their unmatched songwriting and classic rock sound that’s influenced generations, The Guess Who’s return crowns a full-circle moment in Canadian music history. Plus, the tour features Don Felder, formerly of the Eagles, as a special guest—making this summer’s concerts a can’t-miss experience.

Whether you grew up blasting their vinyl or you are just discovering The Guess Who’s legendary sound, 2026 is the year to rock out with one of Canada’s most iconic bands on a brand-new stage in Vancouver. Dust off your dancing shoes and get ready for a night to remember—you will not want to miss this epic return to the spotlight!
