Brent Faiyaz is back on U.S. stages for the first time since 2023 — and he is not doing a 40-city grind. I Spent The Night With Brent Faiyaz is a three-night arena run presented by Encore Live: Chicago, Brooklyn, then Los Angeles. That scarcity is the whole story. If you want seats, treat this like a one-weekend drop, not a long tour you can “catch later.”
Official hub: brentfaiyaz.com. Primary inventory also routes through Ticketmaster.
2026 tour dates
| Date | City | Venue | Show |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mon, Nov 30, 2026 | Chicago, IL | United Center | 8:00 p.m. |
| Thu, Dec 3, 2026 | Brooklyn, NY | Barclays Center | 8:00 p.m. |
| Fri, Dec 11, 2026 | Los Angeles, CA | Crypto.com Arena | 8:00 p.m. |
L.A. doors are listed at 7:00 p.m. on the Crypto.com Arena event page. Chicago and Brooklyn door times can shift by event — check your ticket and the venue listing the week of the show.
This is his first U.S. headlining run since the Fuck the World, It’s a Wasteland cycle. The set is expected to mix catalog cuts (Clouded, Dead Man Walking, Wasting Time, All Mine, WY@) with ICON material (have to., butterflies., wrong faces., other side.). ICON arrived in February 2026 and hit No. 1 on Billboard’s Top R&B Albums chart.
On-sale timeline (already live)
- Venue / promoter presale: Thursday, Sept. 24, 10:00 a.m.–10:00 p.m. local
- General on-sale: Friday, Sept. 25, 10:00 a.m. local (8:00 a.m. PT for L.A.)
Barclays used venue code BKLYN during presale. If a code window reopens or a fan/artist list drops later, it will surface on brentfaiyaz.com and the venue accounts first — not on random “ticket alert” pages.
Queue tip: Log into Ticketmaster before 10 a.m. local. Have payment and a verified phone ready. With only three buildings, dynamic pricing and instant sell-through in lower bowl / floor are likely.
What tickets are actually costing
Official face value is section-based and can move with demand. Do not treat a screenshot from yesterday as the price today.
Early secondary-market snapshots after announcement (not face value):
- Chicago / United Center: get-in listings roughly $158–$176+ (SeatData, Vivid Seats)
- Brooklyn / Barclays: roughly $209–$294+
- Los Angeles / Crypto.com Arena: roughly $190–$387+, with some listings showing very thin remaining inventory
Those are reseller floors, not a promise. Floor and lower-bowl official seats will sit well above “from” prices. Fees, taxes, and order processing are extra on every platform.
Buy order that usually saves money on a short run like this:
- Official on-sale via brentfaiyaz.com / Ticketmaster
- Venue box office if any walk-up inventory exists (Crypto.com Arena box office is limited-hours and mobile delivery only)
- Compare verified resale: StubHub, SeatGeek, Capital City Tickets, Ticketmaster Resale
If official inventory is gone, wait 24–48 hours before panic-buying the first floor listing. Three-city drops often see a second wave of listings after people lose the queue.
City-by-city notes
Chicago — United Center (Nov 30)
Address: 1901 W Madison St. Mobile tickets only; screenshots are typically rejected. Bags: small purse/clutch up to 10″ x 6″ x 2″; backpacks out. Lockers / bag check exist (Binbox + Lot J), but travel light. Official lots run about $15–$40 if you pre-book; CTA #20 Madison and event-day #19 Express beat post-show rideshare surge.
Brooklyn — Barclays Center (Dec 3)
Atlantic Ave / subway-friendly. No on-site public parking — reserve a garage on SpotHero or take the 2/3/4/5/B/D/N/Q/R. Bags: 10″ x 6″ x 2″ max, no backpacks, no bag check. All tickets digital; barcodes refresh. Last trains matter more than parking here.
Los Angeles — Crypto.com Arena (Dec 11)
1111 S. Figueroa St., L.A. LIVE. Strictest bag rule of the three: no bags except a clutch 5″ x 9″ x 1″ — clear bags do not get a pass. Binbox lockers sit near the Kobe Bryant entrance. Pre-buy parking on the arena site; Metro A/B lines beat downtown garage rates if you are not driving a group.
How to avoid the usual ticket traps
- All-in pricing: Toggle fees on before you tap buy. A $149 seat is not $149 at checkout.
- Mobile transfer: Confirm the listing is transferable before you pay a reseller. These buildings are mobile-in.
- Screenshot tickets: Do not count on them at United Center or Barclays.
- Insurance: Optional 5–10% add-ons rarely pay unless your plans are shaky. Read the exclusion list.
- “Official VIP” from random sites: If it is not linked from brentfaiyaz.com or the venue page, treat it as resale with extra markup.
No additional U.S. dates have been announced. If more cities come, they will land on the same official site — not as a rumor thread.
FAQ
Is this a full 2026 tour?
No. Three arenas only as of the Sept. 23 announcement.
Will more dates be added?
Not confirmed. Limited runs sometimes expand; do not wait on a hometown add unless Faiyaz or Encore Live posts it.
Where should I sit?
Lower bowl sides beat upper-bowl center for this kind of atmospheric R&B show. Floor is loud and social; sightlines depend on staging that has not been published yet.
Are kids allowed?
Venues generally require a ticket for every seat. Under-18s are better with an adult at late arena shows.
Refunds?
Primary tickets follow Ticketmaster / venue policy. Most standard concerts are non-refundable unless postponed or canceled.
