Rod Wave plays the United Center in Chicago tomorrow night, Saturday, October 31, and again on Sunday, November 1. Both shows start at 8:00 p.m. on AXS for Halloween night. Here's every date, the start time, and ticket tips.
When Is Rod Wave at the United Center in Chicago?
Rod Wave has 2 nights at the United Center. That's it for Chicago.
- Saturday, October 31, 2026: United Center, Chicago, 8:00 p.m. on AXS
- Sunday, November 1, 2026: United Center, Chicago, 8:00 p.m. on AXS
These dates are part of his Don't Look Down tour 2026 run.
What Has Rod Wave Played on the Don't Look Down Tour So Far?
This run is the Don't Look Down Tour, built around his album of the same name, which came out August 28. The new songs are all over the show, but he doesn't play the album front to back.
How Long Are the Shows?
Expect a late night. At the first Philadelphia show, Rod Wave didn't come on until around 10:15 p.m., and several nights have run past midnight.
A New Orleans show settled into a tighter 34-song set. If you have a ride or a babysitter to plan around, plan for a long one.
Rod Wave Chicago Setlist Guess
No Chicago setlist has been released, and he can change songs from night to night. These are just guesses based on recent shows.
Setlist pages report songs like "Already Won," "One More Time," "Sky Priority," and "Poison" from a recent Atlanta show.
Our best guess is a mix of songs from Don't Look Down and older slow ballads.
How Much Are Rod Wave Chicago Tickets Right Now?
Resale prices change often. Vivid Seats snapshots showed October 31 starting around $132 and November 1 starting around $177.
Those are starting prices, not what every seat costs. Your final price will likely be higher.
Here are a few simple tips for last-minute Rod Wave tickets:
- Start with AXS: it's the official ticketing partner, so check there before a reseller.
- Compare both nights: Saturday started lower than Sunday in the snapshots we saw.
- Check prices more than once: they move, so don't trust one screenshot.
- Look at the start time: if a page says 8:30 p.m., confirm it against your ticket.
Most of the pages you'll find are resellers. Treat any listing that skips the date, section, or fees with care.

Who Is Opening for Rod Wave in Chicago?
Nothing is confirmed yet. One reseller listing names FRIDAYY as the opener for the Chicago date.
No official source backs that up. Treat it as a guess until the venue or AXS says so.
If you want to catch every act, plan to arrive early. Just remember the doors time above is a general pattern.
