Gwen Stefani and No Doubt are reuniting once again. The ska/pop/rock band has signed on for a residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas in May of 2026. The band’s initial run is currently set to be just six shows, but it is possible that more dates could be added later. Here are the details.

Gwen Stefani Will Be The Sphere’s First Female Headliner

When Stefani leads No Doubt out onto the stage at the Sphere next May, the band will be the first female-led act to headline the venue. The technological marvel has hosted some of music’s biggest acts since it opened on September 29, 2023. The Eagles, U2, Phish, the Backstreet Boys, and Dead & Company are just a few of the acts that have headlined shows at the venue, which is located at the Venetian Resort on the Las Vegas Strip.

No Doubt, fronted by Stefani, was one of the hottest bands going in the 1990s and 2000s. The group’s popularity skyrocketed with their third album, 1995’s Tragic Kingdom. The album achieved Diamond certification and has sold over 16 million copies worldwide. It produced three massive hit singles, “Just a Girl,” “Spiderwebs,” and “Don’t Speak.” In all, No Doubt has produced five Top Ten albums and had seven hit singles in the U.S. and more overseas.

As a solo artist, Stefani has had three Top Ten albums of her own. With hit songs like “Hollaback Girl,” “Wind It Up,” “Rich Girl,” and “The Sweet Escape,” she has established her own success outside of No Doubt. The California native has also had successful collaborations with artists like Moby, Eve, Pharrell, and current husband Blake Shelton.

Stefani, along with the members of No Doubt and the Sphere, all announced the residency on Friday morning on social media. No Doubt’s residency will cover May 6, 8, 9, 13, 15, and 16 in 2026. Presale for the shows will start on Wednesday at 10 a.m. PT, and then all tickets will officially go on sale Friday, October 17, at 10 a.m. PT. Presale information, as well as information on package deals, can be found on the No Doubt website.

This residency is big news for No Doubt fans, since the band has only played two shows together since disbanding in 2015. They reunited for a set at Coachella in April of 2024 and then again in January of this year at a benefit for the victims of the Pacific Palisades fire. The announcement today came on the 30th anniversary of the release of Tragic Kingdom. Members of the band, as well as celebrities like Reese Witherspoon, WWE’s Charlotte Flair, and fellow rockers Garbage, all left excited comments on the joint Instagram post (pictured above). These shows will be bucket list items for No Doubt fans everywhere.
