For the first time in nearly a decade, Bruno Mars announced his Global Stadium tour for 2026. The tour will be featuring his new album “The Romantic” which is not even set to release until the end of February.

“I am so excited for the Bruno Mars concert,” sophomore Brianna Prizgar told The Fanscotian.

His concert will not only focus on his new album but will include his beloved hits from previous albums: “Uptown Funk,” “24k Magic” and “Just the Way You Are.”

Concert dates have been released alongside tickets, so most initial sales are done.  However tickets can still be purchased on resale sites for an astronomical price. For some shows, ticket prices on StubHub have climbed into the several thousands.

“I got floor seats for Bruno’s concert and I can’t wait to hear him perform. He was an influential figure [for me] and I have been listening to him for so long,” Prizgar said. “I would always listen to him and I hope he plays the song ‘Gorilla’.”

Mars is performing across the globe, from the United States to Europe ending in Canada. In late August, Prizgar is going to see him perform at MetLife Stadium; she received tickets as a birthday present from her aunt.

However, other students were not as lucky when testing their luck in getting tickets. Sophomore Angelina Ebrahim could not get tickets. She joined the pre-sale, but the tickets were too expensive and when more dates came out, she unfortunately could not nab one.

“I love [Bruno Mars],” Ebrahim said. “I am so happy he announced his tour and [I] [wanted] to go so bad. I feel like I grew up on his songs and he’s been around for so long.”

With a new album on the way, and stadiums filling up across the world, Bruno Mars’ 2026 tour is becoming one of the much-anticipated music events of the year.

“[Bruno Mars’s] songs always put me in a good mood,” Ebrahim said.
