Summer Includes Co-Headline Dates with Sublime As Slightly Stoopid Announces ‘Road Trippin’ Tour 2026 With Stop In Chicago At Salt Shed

Summer Includes Co-Headline Dates with Sublime As Slightly Stoopid Announces ‘Road Trippin’ Tour 2026 With Stop In Chicago At Salt Shed
San Diego-based Slightly Stoopid has announced a full-scale summer takeover, unveiling their Road Trippin Summer Tour 2026 alongside a stacked festival schedule that includes appearances at BottleRock Napa Valley, a triumphant return to BeachLife Festival, Reggae Rise Up Florida and Arizona, and Point Break Festival in Virginia Beach, in addition to their own hometown Field Of Dreamz Festival in San Diego. The new dates arrive off the heels of their sold-out Closer to the Sun festival vacation in Mexico, and as the group prepares to release their forthcoming 10th studio album later this year.

The summer opens with a defining hometown show on June 13 when Slightly Stoopid headlines and curates the inaugural Field Of Dreamz Festival at Petco Park. Spanning two stages, the festival will feature performances by Slightly Stoopid, Sublime, Stephen Marley, The Elovaters, Pepper, DENM, Z-Trip, Band of Gringos, and Boostive, marking a landmark moment for the band in their home city. For additional information, visit fieldofdreamzfest.com.

Road Trippin Summer Tour 2026 hits key markets across the U.S., including Chicago, Cleveland, Atlantic City, three Florida shows, and Seattle, with The Elovaters, DENM, and Bumpin Uglies joining on select dates. The tour also features a major co-headline show at Fiddler’s Green Amphitheatre in Denver, CO alongside Sublime and 311 (Aug 7), followed by a headline return to the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre on August 8— marking Slightly Stoopid’s 20th headline performance at the legendary venue. “We’re road trippin this summer across the US with all our friends – Sublime, Pepper, The Elovaters, DENM and Bumpin Uglies coming along for the ride!!! We’ve been cooking up a lot of new music and look forward to jamming those tunes on tour, plus collaborating nightly on stage with these great bands! Pumped to see all the Stoopidheads hitting the open road, tailgating with the crew and bringing their energy to each show.” — Miles, Slightly Stoopid

About Slightly Stoopid:A musical brotherhood founded by Miles Doughty and Kyle McDonald, Slightly Stoopid has grown to achieve artistic freedom and commercial success through a DIY ethos all their own. Unwavering in their principles of independence and determined to succeed on their own terms, the pair of longtime childhood friends were mentored by Bradley Nowell of Sublime and lean into their rock, reggae and punk roots with music that embraces West Coast subculture and positive party energy. Warriors of the road, their touring has grown exponentially both domestically and internationally with sold-out headlining dates across the world, and festival appearances at famed events such as Coachella, Lollapalooza, New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, Austin City Limits, Outside Lands, Cali Vibes and countless others. Thirty years into the journey, the prolific collective has much to celebrate. The band founded their own record label, Stoopid Records, which released their platinum single “Closer To The Sun,” and gold singles “2am” and “Collie Man.” With Billboard-charting albums and over 1 million physical catalog sales to date, they continue to elevate their game. Slightly Stoopid’s eclectic collaborations include Snoop Dogg, Bob Weir, Stephen Marley, Cypress Hill, G-Love, Barrington Levy, Chali2na, Karl Denson (Rolling Stones), Don Carlos (Black Uhuru) & Rashawn Ross (Dave Matthews Band). The band independently curates their annual Closer to the Sun destination music festival in Mexico, which has sold out 11 years in a row. Born from humble Southern California roots in Ocean Beach, CA, today Slightly Stoopid bears the torch for a musical lifestyle that resonates across the world.
