Olivia Rodrigo is finally putting Sacramento on her tour map, locking in a two-night stand at Golden 1 Center on December 15 and 16, 2026. The shows are part of her newly announced The Unraveled Tour, backing her upcoming album, and mark her first headlining run in the city after both her Sour and Guts tours skipped the capital. With presales and a general on-sale landing in early May, local fans should be ready for a scramble.
Tickets and presales
American Express cardholders get the first crack at seats, with an AmEx presale starting Tuesday, May 5 at 12:00 p.m. local venue time. The general public on-sale follows on Thursday, May 7 at 12:00 p.m. local time. According to Ticketmaster, there is a four-ticket limit per purchase, and presale inventory can vary from venue to venue. Fans who need accessible seating or box-office assistance are advised to check in with the venue or Ticketmaster ahead of the on-sale so they are not troubleshooting at the last minute.
Why Sacramento matters
Golden 1 Center will host both nights, and local coverage notes that this will be Rodrigo’s first time performing in Sacramento after her earlier arena runs only hit the Bay Area. Her Sour and Guts tours reached markets across the region but stopped short of the capital. Per CBS Sacramento, the Sacramento dates land in the middle of a California stretch that also includes shows in Oakland and a multi-night stand at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood. The timing has already kicked off talk about holiday travel, downtown hotel bookings, and late-night foot traffic flooding the blocks around the arena.
Support acts and tour scope
The Unraveled Tour spans roughly 65 dates across North America, the U.K., and Europe, with several cities getting multi-night stops instead of quick in-and-outs. Devon Again is tapped as the opener for Rodrigo’s Sacramento shows, while other guests are slotted in on different legs of the tour. Tour rundowns from Pitchfork lay out the itinerary, and TicketNews highlights the mix of support acts tied to various dates.
Album context
The Unraveled Tour is built around Rodrigo’s third album, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love, which is due out June 12, 2026. The run follows the lead single “drop dead,” which premiered at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Coverage from Billboard on the single and album rollout has helped push interest in tickets before many fans even know their December plans. Promoter details and trade coverage indicate that Live Nation is handling the tour and may roll out additional on-sale information or later value-priced ticket drops.
What fans should plan for
With the shows scheduled in mid-December and Rodrigo’s streaming and chart numbers still running hot, fans can expect long digital queues and heavy online traffic when presales and the general on-sale hit between May 5 and 7. For show policies, venue rules, and box-office hours, check directly with the arena; Golden 1 Center posts box-office details on its site. If you miss the first presale wave, it is worth keeping an eye out for additional artist or promoter presales tied to album preorders, email newsletters, or later discounted releases.
