Legendary rock star Billy Idol has announced a special series of concerts, known as a residency, set for late summer 2026. Idol will light up the stage at the Fontainebleau hotel for five exciting shows between August 28 and September 5. Fans eager to see the iconic performer can purchase tickets when they go on sale to the public this Friday.
The Hot in the City residency adds to an already significant period for Idol. Although the first part of 2026 has been calmer compared to his extensive touring across North America, South America, and Europe in 2025, he's certainly not been idle. Last April, he released his ninth studio album, Dream Into It, his first full-length album in over ten years.
Idol has also been busy with other projects. His new documentary, Billy Idol Should Be Dead, recently premiered in theaters and will be available to stream on Hulu starting March 26. Adding to his impressive career milestones, the punk rock icon has received his second consecutive nomination for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. He is currently ranked seventh in the fan vote, showing strong support from his followers.
Speaking about his second Rock Hall nomination, Idol shared with Billboard that it's uncommon to be inducted on the first try. However, he would deeply value the honor this year. He explained, "It would cap off an amazing 50 years." Idol reflected on his journey, saying, "When I walked through that door that punk rock opened up, you really didn't know if you've got the goods; only over time you see I really did have the goods, and I think the songs I've made are lasting."
