Dave Matthews Band Christens Grand Rapids’ New Amphitheater!

Dave Matthews Band will help inaugurate Grand Rapids’ stunning new Acrisure Amphitheater with two incredible nights on July 7-8, 2026! The $184 million, state-of-the-art riverfront venue opens in spring 2026, and DMB’s two-night stand will be among the first major concerts at West Michigan’s newest landmark.

With a 12,000-seat capacity and one of the largest stages in the country, Acrisure Amphitheater represents a transformational moment for Grand Rapids entertainment. The venue features a revolutionary canopy design – 75% unsupported with only three ground connections – creating unobstructed views from every seat. Dave Matthews Band is the perfect act to showcase this remarkable new space.

Two Unique Nights of DMB

True DMB fans know that no two shows are alike. With two consecutive nights in Grand Rapids, you can experience completely different setlists featuring the improvisational jams and surprise deep cuts that have made the band one of rock’s most celebrated live acts for over 30 years.

About Dave Matthews Band

Dave Matthews Band formed in Charlottesville, Virginia in 1991, blending rock, jazz, folk, and world music into something entirely unique. Since their 1994 major-label debut Under the Table and Dreaming, DMB has sold 38 million albums and built one of music’s most dedicated fanbases.

Why Two Nights?

DMB concerts are renowned for their completely unique setlists – the band never plays the same show twice. Attending both July 7 and July 8 means experiencing two entirely different concerts, with different songs, different jams, and different surprises each night. The 2-Day Pass offers the ultimate DMB experience at the brand-new venue.

What to Expect

Each show typically runs 2.5 to 3+ hours. Expect fan favorites like “Crash Into Me,” “Ants Marching,” and “Warehouse” alongside deep cuts and extended improvisational jams that can double or triple studio song lengths.

Experience Grand Rapids

Grand Rapids offers world-class dining, craft breweries, and attractions. Make the most of your DMB weekend:

  • Beer City USA: 80+ craft breweries within 30 minutes of downtown
  • Frederik Meijer Gardens: World-renowned sculpture park and botanical gardens
  • Downtown: Vibrant restaurant and nightlife scene along the riverfront
  • ArtPrize: World’s largest public art competition (September)
