Noah Kahan will perform at Ohio Stadium on June 5, 2027. The date marks the only Columbus stop on his upcoming stadium tour.

The announcement followed a cryptic social media post from the Schottenstein Center on October 28. The venue shared a drawing of a ladybug with no caption and tagged Ohio Stadium. The image quickly identified the performer for fans. Kahan, a Grammy-nominated folk-pop musician from Vermont, is widely associated with the ladybug symbol. His song "Stick Season" helped propel him to national fame. He recently completed a stadium tour for his fourth album, "The Great Divide," which included a sold-out show at Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati this summer.

Kahan confirmed the news today by announcing The Last of the Bugs World Tour. The tour will visit stadiums across the country and internationally in 2027. It celebrates his deluxe album, "The Great Divide: The Last of the Bugs." Fans had already begun searching for details after the initial post. Many speculated that a major artist was coming to Ohio Stadium before the official confirmation arrived.

Ticket presale sign-ups are available now on Kahan’s official website. General sale begins Thursday, November 12, at noon local time. The tour is scheduled to run throughout 2027, with Ohio Stadium serving as a key North American venue.
