The R&B Tour Closes in Tampa at Raymond James Stadium

Every great tour needs a fitting conclusion, and The R&B Tour wraps up with a two-night grand finale at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida on December 11 and 12, 2026. Chris Brown and Usher have been crisscrossing the continent since June, hitting over 30 stadiums from Denver to Chicago to Los Angeles to Atlanta. Tampa gets the honor of being the final chapter -- and with a second night added due to demand, this closer has become a full-blown event.

Raymond James Stadium sits at 4201 N Dale Mabry Highway in Tampa, right off Interstate 275. The open-air venue holds over 65,000 for concert events and has hosted three Super Bowls, making it one of the premier large-event venues in the Southeast. Parking is available in lots surrounding the stadium, and rideshare drop-off areas are designated near the main gates. December weather in Tampa is typically mild and comfortable -- perfect for an outdoor stadium show.

Usher has delivered one of the most remarkable career arcs in R&B history. From his breakout on My Way to the genre-defining Confessions to his celebrated Super Bowl LVIII halftime performance, he has remained at the top of the game for over 25 years. Chris Brown has matched that longevity with a relentless output of hits and albums -- from his self-titled debut through F.A.M.E., Indigo, and Breezy. The two together represent the full timeline of 2000s-era R&B and beyond.

The R&B Tour also visits NRG Stadium in Houston, SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, and Soldier Field in Chicago among many other stops. Tampa closing out the run means these two shows will carry the weight and emotion of a finale -- expect extended performances, potential surprise guests, and two artists leaving everything on the stage. Tickets for both December dates are available on BigStub, with verified seats at every price level and a 100% buyer guarantee on every order.
