Foo Fighters to perform at Total Mortgage Arena on April 28

Foo Fighters to perform at Total Mortgage Arena in Bridgeport, Connecticut in April 2026 — Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters will perform a special one-off concert at Total Mortgage Arena on April 28 ahead of the band’s upcoming summer stadium tour.

The Bridgeport show will feature support from psychedelic garage rock band Frankie and the Witch Fingers. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, March 20, at 10 a.m. ET, with additional presale information available through the band’s official website.

The performance arrives just days after the release of the band’s forthcoming 12th studio album, Your Favorite Toy, due out April 24 via Roswell Records and RCA Records.

The album’s title track and lead single, Your Favorite Toy, debuted Feb. 19 and marks the band’s first new music of 2026. The song features jagged guitars and a driving rhythm as frontman Dave Grohl delivers a sharp, sardonic vocal performance over an infectious chorus.

Grohl said the track helped shape the direction of the new record.

“‘Your Favorite Toy’ really was the key that unlocked the tone and energetic direction of the new album,” Grohl said. “We stumbled upon it after experimenting with different sounds and dynamics for over a year, and the day it took shape, I knew that we had to follow its lead. It was the fuse to the powder keg of songs we wound up recording for this record. It feels new.”

Recorded at the band’s home studio, the album was co-produced by Foo Fighters and producer Oliver Roman, engineered by Roman, and mixed by Mark ‘Spike’ Stent. The album includes 10 tracks, including “Caught In The Echo,” “Window,” “Unconditional,” and last year’s single Asking For A Friend.

The album release will precede the band’s global Take Cover world tour, which begins June 10 at Unity Arena following festival appearances at Welcome to Rockville and BottleRock Napa Valley.

The Bridgeport performance offers Connecticut fans a rare chance to see the band in an arena setting before the tour shifts to stadiums later this year.
