Guns N’ Roses Reveal 2026 Summer Tour Openers Including Public Enemy, Ice Cube & Pierce The Veil

Guns N’ Roses have unveiled the opening acts for their 2026 North American tour, bringing together a diverse mix of artists across rock, rap, and post-hardcore. Highlights include rap icons Ice Cube and Public Enemy, blues rock veterans The Black Crowes, post-hardcore mainstays Pierce The Veil, and alternative metal newcomers The Barbarians Of California.

The inclusion of rap pioneers Public Enemy and Ice Cube appears to be a personal nod from frontman Axl Rose, who has long shown respect for hip-hop and was famously seen sporting Public Enemy and N.W.A. merch in past decades.
