Bruno Mars marks return with new album and stadium tour set for 2026
Bruno Mars has officially announced his comeback to the music industry with news of his long-awaited fourth studio album and a global stadium outing to support.
On February 27th, Mars will release The Romantic, which will be released via Atlantic Records. The first single, currently unnamed, will be released on January 9th.
Despite his last solo album, 24K Magic, being released in 2016, Mars has plenty of successful recent collaborations under his belt. ‘Die With a Smile’, the collaboration with Lady Gaga released in 2024, was the fastest song in Spotify history to reach one billion streams.
Mars’ recent collaboration with ROSÉ, ‘APT’, was just crowned the most globally streamed song of 2025 by Apple Music, and earned three nominations at this year’s 68th Annual Grammy Awards.
Alongside news of the announcement, the ‘Locked out of Heaven’ singer has announced his first global headline tour in nearly a decade, which doubles as his first global stadium outing.
Joining Mars across all dates is nine-time Grammy award-winning artist and Silk Sonic collaborator Anderson .Paak as DJ Pee .Wee. Additional support comes from Victoria Monét, Raye, and Leon Thomas across select dates.
The tour will kick off in Las Vegas on April 10th, and will see the singer-songwriter sail across America to cities like Houston, Nashville, Detroit and Chicago. He will end the initial North American run in Toronto at the end of May, before embarking overseas in Paris at the end of June.
From there, Mars will head to Berlin, Amsterdam, Madrid, and Milan, before two huge headline shows at Wembley Stadium in London on July 18th and 19th.
Mars will continue to travel around America into August, September, and October, making 2026 an extremely busy year for the pop star.
