Usher and Chris Brown's Five Atlanta Nights Break a Stadium Record

Usher and Chris Brown's R&B Tour is in the middle of a run no act had done before at Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The tour is the first to play five dates there in a single stop, breaking the record of four set by Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour in 2025, the stadium announced when it added the fifth show on Aug 17, 2026.
The five dates are Nov 5, 6, 8, 10 and 11, 2026, per the stadium. Usher is an Atlanta native, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution noted in its preview of the run, which it reported had been discussed by the two camps for nearly a decade before plans came together in February 2026.
The Atlanta guest list
Billboard has been tracking every surprise guest on the tour, and the first three Atlanta nights brought out several rap guests.
On Nov 5, T.I. came out for songs including "Bring Em Out," "Live Your Life" and "Whatever You Like." Billboard listed seven separate guest slots on Nov 6 alone. On Nov 8, Jeezy performed "Put On," and Sexyy Red did "Looking for the Hoes," according to Billboard.
By the numbers
Billboard reported that an August extension brought the North American tour to 59 dates, wrapping in Tampa, Florida in December. That makes the Atlanta stand five of the tour's 59 dates, all in one building.
Across the whole tour, Billboard's running list includes rap guests such as 50 Cent, Future, Lil Baby and Ye, who performed five songs at SoFi Stadium on Sept 25, 2026. The last two Atlanta dates are Nov 10 and 11.
