Les Misérables The Arena Concert Spectacular extends New York run at Radio City Music Hall

Les Misérables The Arena Concert Spectacular has announced more dates for its run at Radio City Music Hall in New York.

Cameron Mackintosh’s large-scale arena tour of Les Mis was due to play New York’s Radio City Music Hall for a strictly limited run of 14 shows from 23 July to 2 August 2026. Due to demand, that has now been extended by a week to 9 August 2026.

Boublil and Schönberg’s epic musical celebrated its 40th anniversary last month in London, having opened at the Barbican Theatre in London on 8 October 1985. Les Misérables is the world’s longest-running musical.

As announced last month, the Les Miserables The Arena Concert Spectacular will continue its world tour through 2026, including Dublin’s 3Arena (Friday 29 May – Saturday 6 June 2026), Birmingham’s Utilita Arena (Thursday 11 – Sunday 14 June 2026), and London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall (Thursday 18 – Sunday 21 June 2026).

Full casting for the new tour dates is to be announced soon.

The Arena Tour is currently playing at the Shanghai Grand Theatre in Shanghai, China until 28 December 2025.
