Yo La Tengo aren’t the only band who announced an NYC holiday run today. The Hold Steady have shared details on Massive Nights 2026 which happens December 2-5 at Brooklyn Bowl.
Tickets go on presale Wednesday, July 22 at 12 PM with password HOTSOFT and remaining tickets go on sale to the public on Friday, July 24 at 12 PM.
All four nights are “An Evening With” shows — no openers — and each show will have its own theme:
- Wednesday, December 2 is a “storytellers set” and will be seated.
- Thursday, December 3 will celebrate the 20th anniversary of Boys & Girls In America by playing the album in full plus a second set of songs from the rest of their discography.
- Friday, December 4 and Saturday, December 5 will feature two-set THS shows, “diving into the canon of fan favorites and the gems that aren’t always on display.”
The Hold Steady also have a few Pacific Northwest shows in August, including Boys & Girls in America shows in Portland and Seattle. All dates are listed below.
