Here are all the artists coming to Vancouver’s Summer Night Concerts at the PNE

Vancouver’s PNE feels like the star of the summer, and we don’t just mean during the World Cup. Its newly constructed amphitheatre, the Freedom Mobile Arch, has rapidly become a hot spot for live music and events, and it won’t be long before it hosts the PNE’s popular Summer Night Concerts.

PNE Fair admission with every concert ticket

From Aug. 22 to Sept. 7, the outdoor concert series takes over the venue, with admission to the PNE Fair included in the purchase of every concert ticket. According to the PNE, this year is unlike any other for the popular summer series, as the new Freedom Mobile Arch features enhanced sightlines, next-level acoustics, and an elevated fan experience.

Tickets start at $49 plus tax/fees at all the concerts when purchased online, which isn’t too bad at all when you consider who’s performing this year.

Who is performing at Summer Night Concerts this year?

From Mt. Joy to Nelly, here are all the artists slated to take the stage during Summer Night Concerts in 2026:

  • Aug. 22: Blue Rodeo
  • Aug. 23: The Guess Who
  • Aug. 25: The Beaches
  • Aug. 26: Nelly
  • Aug. 27: Zedd

Note that there is a strictly enforced ticket limit of eight per person. So if you’re hoping to gather a larger group than that, you’ll have to divvy up the purchases.

The countdown is on!
