Add The New York Post on Google Nothing says summer quite like a Phish tour.
For the past 43 years — excluding a few short hiatuses and 2020 — Trey Anastasio, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon and Page McConnell have embarked on a July through September jaunt at venues all over North America.
This time around, the legendary jam band has shows lined up at stadiums, arenas, music centers, parks, amphitheaters all over the U.S.
That includes a whopping five shows at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, their 92nd through 96th at the legendary House That Brunson Built venue. They’re scheduled to take place:
Wednesday, July 227:30 p.m.
Friday, July 247:30 p.m.
Saturday, July 257:30 p.m.
Monday, July 277:30 p.m.
Wednesday, July 297:30 p.m.
They’ll also be at Syracuse’s Empower Federal Credit Union Amphitheater on Tuesday, July 21.
If you’d like to see the one-of-a-kind, anything-goes ensemble live, tickets are available for all summer 2026 Phish concerts.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one gig was $46 including fees on SeatGeek.
Prices start at $101 including fees for shows on the MSG run.

“…for those seeking adventure away from cookie-cutter arena rock, Phish still fit the bill,” The Arts Fuse wrote after attending three back-to-back-to-back shows in Manchester, NH last May.
“Of the 52 different songs played across the weekend (including some lengthy jams topped by an epic 42 minutes of “Tweezer” that wove in and out of Sunday’s exploratory final set), just seven tunes came from recordings since Phish’s reformation in 2009.”

On July 12, 2024, Phish dropped their 16th studio album “Evolve.”
As expected, the band completely surprises. No two songs are alike here; their only connection is the cosmically in-sync ensemble.
Personally, we were most taken with the slinky, bass-y, mysterious “Hey Stranger,” upbeat toe-tapper “A Wave Of Hope” and slow burn “Monsters.”
Be sure to try the restrained Beatles-esque “Valdese,” too. It’s impossible not to crack a smile while listening.

In December 2023, the New York Post spoke with comedian Max Fine about what it’s like to attend a Phish concert.
“It’s not like anything you’ve ever seen because it’s never happened before,” the Phan explained.
“Every show is special and unique because they don’t plan for it. You get to be whoever you want at a Phish show.”
