We covered the early summer lineup back in June, and the Coca-Cola Amphitheater has been delivering. But the season is far from over — in fact, some of the biggest shows of the year are still ahead. Here’s everything on the calendar from August through fall, with a note on what to prioritize.
August
Tim McGraw: Pawn Shop Guitar Tour — Thursday, August 13 | 7:00 PM
McGraw is one of the most reliable live performers in country music, and the outdoor amphitheater setting suits him perfectly. He’s joined by 49 Winchester, who are worth showing up early for. Tickets start at $32 — one of the better values on this list.
5 Seconds of Summer: EVERYONE’S A STAR! World Tour — Sunday, August 16 | 8:00 PM
The Australian pop-rock quartet brings their latest world tour to Birmingham with The Band CAMINO opening. A high-energy show for a late summer Sunday — tickets from $51.
September
Bert Kreischer — Friday, September 11 | 7:00 PM
If you’ve never seen Bert Kreischer live, his reputation for being one of the most entertaining stand-up comedians working today is well earned. The Amphitheater is an unusual setting for comedy but it works for Kreischer’s larger-than-life stage presence. Tickets from $45.
Empire of the Sun: Ask That God Tour — Saturday, September 12 | 7:30 PM
One of the most visually spectacular live acts in electronic music, Empire of the Sun brings their elaborate production to Birmingham with Polo & Pan opening. If you’ve never seen them live, this is the show to change that. Tickets from $45.
NEEDTOBREATHE: The Long Surrender Tour — Friday, September 18 | 7:00 PM
The South Carolina rock band with a devoted following brings their new tour to Birmingham with Drew & Ellie Holcomb in support. NEEDTOBREATHE consistently delivers exceptional live shows — a strong pick for fans of Southern rock and Americana. Tickets from $50.
Wu-Tang Clan: Wu-Tang Forever, The Final Chapter — Saturday, September 19 | 7:30 PM
One of the most iconic hip-hop groups in history, joined by Bone Thugs-N-Harmony. This one is exactly what it sounds like — a historic night of classic hip-hop at an outdoor amphitheater on a September Saturday. Tickets from $34, which given the lineup is remarkable. Don’t sleep on this one.
Mumford & Sons: Prizefighter Tour — Tuesday, September 29 | 7:30 PM
The marquee show of the season. Mumford & Sons return with their new album and Marcus King Band in support — a pairing that is genuinely exciting. If you’re only buying tickets to one show this summer, make it this one. Tickets from $73.
Into Fall
CAAMP — Thursday, October 1 | 7:30 PM
The Ohio folk duo brings their warm, intimate sound to the Amphitheater just as the weather starts to cooperate. A perfect early fall evening show. Tickets from $57.
“Weird Al” Yankovic: Bigger & Weirder 2026 Tour — Friday, October 2 | 8:00 PM
An absolute one-of-a-kind live experience. Weird Al is one of the most committed and entertaining live performers in music, full stop. Back-to-back with CAAMP on consecutive nights — a genuinely interesting double option if you’re up for it. Tickets from $45.
Gavin Adcock: The Day I Hang It Up Tour — Friday, October 16 | 7:00 PM
The rising country star brings his tour to Birmingham with Braxton Keith opening. Tickets from $57.
