David Lee Roth to bring 2026 North American Tour to Wallingford’s Toyota Oakdale Theatre
Rock and Roll Hall of Famer David Lee Roth will return to the stage in 2026 with a major North American tour that includes a stop in Connecticut this spring.
Roth, the iconic frontman of Van Halen, will perform at the Toyota Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford on May 31, 2026, as part of the Hartford HealthCare Concert Series. The show is one of 30 dates on A Night With David Lee Roth, a multi-city tour that will bring his celebrated stage presence and catalog of classic hits to fans across the continent.
As the voice of Van Halen, Roth helped define a generation of rock music with his unmistakable swagger and high-energy performances. The band rose to global prominence with enduring anthems such as “Jump,” “Panama” and “Runnin’ with the Devil,” selling more than 80 million records worldwide. Van Halen was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007.
