Dave Matthews Band closed a two-night stand at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre in Colorado on August 29 with a 21-song set, then immediately turned its attention toward the band’s traditional Labor Day weekend residency at The Gorge.
The band’s official setlist shows the second Colorado night opening with “All Along the Watchtower” before moving through “American Baby,” “Big Eyed Fish,” “Bartender,” “Crush,” “Everyday,” “#41” and “The Stone.” Dave Matthews returned alone for “Here On Out” before the full band closed the encore with “What You Are.”
That followed a different 23-song set on August 28, underscoring one of the long-running features of Dave Matthews Band touring: consecutive-night runs rarely repeat the same show.
The next stop is Mystic Lake Amphitheater in Shakopee, Minnesota, on August 31, a date rescheduled from June 23.
After that comes one of the signature weekends on the DMB calendar. The band returns to The Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington, for three nights from September 4 through September 6.
Dave Matthews Band’s official site lists different opening acts each night. Stephen Wilson Jr. and Infinity Song appear Friday, Watchhouse and Jonah Kagen play Saturday, and Jesse Welles and Sierra Hull are scheduled for Sunday.
The Gorge’s official venue information says parking opens at 1 p.m., doors at 3:30 p.m. and music at 5 p.m. each day. The venue is also warning fans to plan for unusually heavy travel delays because construction on the Vantage Bridge along Interstate 90 could create backups of several hours.
The Labor Day Gorge run is the final stretch of DMB’s 2026 summer tour before a fall arena run begins in November.
Live Nation’s original 2026 tour announcement described The Gorge weekend as the traditional ending point for the summer tour and confirmed the same three-night supporting lineup.
For fans following the band night to night, the Colorado shows offered another reminder that the setlist remains the central variable in the DMB live experience. The August 28 and 29 performances shared almost no overlap, and the three-night Gorge run gives the band an even larger canvas for deeper catalog choices.
45Audio will update coverage if the band announces a livestream, guest appearance or other special programming for Labor Day weekend.
