Paul McCartney - Got Back 2026 German Stadium Dates Confirmed
Published on 07/21/2026 at 16:17 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael MĂĽller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Paul McCartney extends his Got Back tour into Europe with large-scale dates confirmed for 2026, including major shows in Germany. According to listings on European primary ticketing platforms and German venue schedules, the former Beatle will bring his career-spanning set to Berlin and Munich as part of an expanded run.
German dates anchor the Got Back return
The 2026 leg of Got Back includes at least two high-profile German stops: one in Berlin and one in Munich, both in large-capacity stadium or arena settings aimed at tens of thousands of fans per night. These shows position Germany as a central hub of the European schedule rather than a mere side stop.
In practical terms, the German concerts continue a pattern from McCartney’s previous European tours, where Berlin and Munich have repeatedly featured as key markets with strong demand and rapid ticket sales. Compared with many neighboring countries, McCartney tends to play larger venues in Germany, underscoring the size and stability of his fanbase there.
How the wider 2026 route is shaping up
Beyond Germany, the European routing for 2026 shows McCartney booked into a mix of stadiums and indoor arenas across Western and Northern Europe, including dates in France, Spain, Italy and the UK. The route generally follows the successful structure of his 2022-2023 shows, with weekend stadium events complemented by midweek arena appearances.
This pattern allows McCartney to balance iconic open-air events in capital cities with more acoustically controlled indoor nights, often tailoring setlists slightly to suit the venue and local audience profile. For German fans, that typically means at least one night with a full stadium production and another in a more traditional arena environment.
