Paul McCartney set to be the inaugural performer at Hamilton's new TD Coliseum
The hitmaker takes the stage Nov. 21 as part of his career-spanning Got Back Tour.
Before that, the 'Blackbird' singer stops at Montreal's Bell Centre on Nov. 17 and 18.
The Coliseum's general manager Nick DeLuco promises an extraordinary night for the first concert at the 18,000-seat facility.
The revamped arena has touted a 'premium experience' including improved sightlines, concourses and concession areas; an upgraded acoustics system, and touchless and self-serve technologies for faster food and beverage purchases.
The Got Back Tour kicks off Sep. 29 in the Palm Springs area and includes stops in Minneapolis and Buffalo, N.Y., before wrapping in Chicago on Nov. 24 and 25.
TD Coliseum says it is working with Metrolinx to ease after-concert travel between the nearby West Harbour GO station and Toronto's downtown transit hub, Union Station.
'Opening night deserves something extraordinary, and it doesn't get any better than Paul McCartney,' DeLuco said Thursday in a release.
Tickets go on sale July 18.
Other performers confirmed for the TD Coliseum include Andrea Bocelli on Dec. 9, Brad Paisley on Dec. 12, and the 55th annual Juno Awards broadcast, set to air March 29, 2026 on CBC.

The romantic song is fairly straightforward for Macca who typically tends to embrace unique sounds even when he releases Christmas music; therefore, the heartfelt standard, which he originally released in 2012 with a bit more verve on the cover-heavy jazz record 'Kisses on the Bottom,' is an oddity — a star-studded one but an oddity all the same — and must be heard to be believed.

Neither have his fans, who seem to grow younger every year.' — PEOPLE 'It was among the most touchingly normal miracles I've ever experienced… 'Some of us have to get some sleep, you know,' McCartney said, after 'Let It Be.' But he didn't look like an old man in need of sleep. He looked like Paul McCartney. Forever returning for another curtain call, another formal bow before the crowd, a man soaking in the energy emitted by fans like a cat in the sun.' — PITCHFORK 'Everybody in the room was having the night of our lives — but nobody was having more fun than Paul… all boyish energy and vigor… it was devastatingly powerful to hear Paul sing 'Now and Then' in the city where John wrote it, bringing it all back home. It was a moment that felt intensely private — as if we were eavesdropping on the two of them — yet massive... the whole show was a joyful explosion' — ROLLING STONE 'An icon among icons... a vision of graceful nonchalance' — USA TODAY 'As always, McCartney switched between bass, guitar and piano, and he was in strong voice, hitting essential high notes with ease… a once-in-a-lifetime moment' — VARIETY Paul and his band have performed in an unparalleled range of venues and locations worldwide: From outside the Colosseum in Rome, Moscow's Red Square, Buckingham Palace, The White House and a free show in Mexico for over 400,000 people to the last ever show at San Francisco's Candlestick Park where The Beatles played their final concert in 1966, a 2016 week in the California desert that included two headline sets at the historic Desert Trip festival and a jam-packed club gig for a few hundred lucky fans at Pappy & Harriet's Pioneertown Palace, two Glastonbury Festival headline slots, rocking the Bowery in New York City for a week of spontaneous club shows, and even one performance broadcast live into Space!
