Here are shows and concerts coming to El Paso, Texas in 2026

The start of a new year is a time of hope and excitement for something new.

And when it comes to entertainment, many concertgoers will want to know what they can look forward to in 2026.

The UTEP Special Events team recently asked what performers fans want to see in 2026 and the answers ranged from seeing some – like Coldplay and Chris Stapleton – return again to drawing singers like Post Malone, BTS or anyone from the KPop world.
