No Doubt has officially announced their reunion for a string of shows at the Las Vegas Sphere in May 2026. This marks the ska-punk band’s first residency in over ten years and the venue’s first female-fronted performance since it opened in 2023.
Frontwoman Gwen Stefani expressed her excitement about the opportunity to create a show at Sphere, noting the venue’s unique and modern qualities that provide a fresh visual canvas for their creativity. She emphasized the significance of reuniting with No Doubt, describing it as a blend of reliving their history while venturing into uncharted territory.
The news of the reunion was teased on the Sphere’s Instagram account, featuring an image of the venue illuminated to resemble an orange, a nod to the band’s “Tragic Kingdom” album artwork and Stefani’s Orange County roots. No Doubt later confirmed the announcement with a post revealing the band members beneath the peeled orange.
The band is set to perform six nights at Sphere on May 6, 8, 9, 13, 15, and 16. Presale tickets will be available starting Wednesday at 10 a.m. PT for fans who sign up on the group’s official website, with remaining tickets going on sale on October 17 at 10 a.m. PT.
Fans have long awaited a reunion tour following No Doubt’s electrifying performance at Coachella last year, their first show together since 2015. Despite Stefani expressing skepticism about a reunion in 2016, citing creative differences and burnout, the band regrouped for a fundraiser in January this year.
Stefani’s optimism about reuniting with her bandmates Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont, and Adrian Young was evident in a 2024 interview where she acknowledged the challenges of aligning schedules but remained hopeful about a future collaboration.
No Doubt’s previous residency, titled “Seven Night Stand,” occurred in Los Angeles in 2012. The Sphere, a renowned venue hosting major acts like U2 and the Eagles, has yet to feature a female-fronted musical act, sparking rumors of stars like Beyoncé or Taylor Swift gracing its stage, though organizers have dispelled such speculations.
James Dolan, CEO of Sphere Entertainment, clarified that neither Beyoncé nor Taylor Swift were in discussions for performances at the venue. He humorously suggested the possibility of constructing another Sphere for them to perform in if needed, highlighting the venue’s appeal and demand among top artists.
