Mpls: July 16 to July 19, 2026
Here are some shows in Minneapolis/St Paul from July 16 to July 19, 2026: • Creed at Mystic Lake Amphitheater, Shakopee (July 16, 2026) • Wax and DJ Hoppa at 7th St Entry (Jul 16, 2026) • idobi Radio Summer School at Uptown Theater (July 17, 2026) • Minnesota Yacht Club (July 17-19, 2026)
The special 93X Half-Assed Morning Show Summer Bash with headliner Creed, will take place July 16, 2026, at the Mystic Lake Amphitheater, in Shakopee.
We saw Creed in Nov 2024 and wrote, “Celebrating now thirty years as a band, Florida rockers Creed are truly living a second life, having reuniting again after being apart for the previous decade doing solo projects, and still managing to fill arenas even without a new record to support. The band’s hit song “Higher” even helped propel NBC reality singing show “The Voice” contestant Huntley to a win, on the previous season. The headlining set began with one of their heaviest songs, 2001’s “Bullets” and the pyro was on full display right away on the song’s choruses, though safely located in plumes behind the band. There were three riser platforms along the front of the stage for singer Scott Stapp, guitarist Mark Tremonti, and bassist Brian Marshall, while drummer Scott Phillips mostly kept intently focused to his beats atop the back drum platform.”
Bush and Tim Montana to open.
Wax and DJ Hoppa started working together when they tour together in 2024. On the road together, the two quickly discovered a deep creative chemistry and a shared obsession with making music… and they are bringing their collaboration to the 7th Street Entry, in Minneapolis, on July 16, 2026.
Wax is known for blending hip-hop and humor, and for his viral YouTube videos. Come see you in real life this July 16.
Wax & Hoppa will be supported from K.A.A.N..

We’ve seen Games We Play in March 2024 and the incredible Winona Fighter in July 2025, which we wrote, “Winona Fighter: You Look Like a Drunk Phoebe Bridgers was a blast for an opener, and the band was not messing around. This is the kind of band where a mosh pit or fight might break out at a smaller venue, and the quartet (vocals/guitar, guitar, bass, and drums) might be happy about it. Singer Coco Kinnon was aggressively all over, and the stage set up on day 3 included a new walkway jutting out of the front center, which she took full advantage of. A screamed “Minnesooooota!” was the front end of the band’s intro, where Kinnon mentioned this was the last stop on a tour that started in February. (Given how dull the audience already was, this must have been a great feeling to end the tour on.) That harder punk sound in both music and singing continued shine through. I loved a moment when she pulled enough cord length out for the guitarist to come out on the stage extension and get that adulatory moment with his solo. With the dual backing vocals at times, the band packed a punch.”

Minnesota’s biggest music festival, Minnesota Yacht Club returns this July 17-19, 2026, and, again, it’s bigger than ever! Very excited to see The Strokes reformed and playing at the biggest festival in the Twin Cities! Do yourself a favor and buy your tickets early, it will sell out and you’ll regret it later.
We covered the Yacht Club in 2024 and 2025 and wrote, “The final day of the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival, at Harriet Island, in St Paul, was looking to be nearly perfect weather and was certainly the heaviest attended crowd of the festival early in the day… Green Day’s set started a little later, due to a delay from 311’s set, when a fan passed out and forced the band to play passed their allotted set time. Then after a long, long, long intro (three intros!) including a full playback of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody, then Drunk Bunny shows up to ramp up excitement with The Ramones’ Blitzkrieg Bop. And finally the band walk on music featuring a medley of The Imperial March, Blitzkrieg Bop, We Will Rock You and I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll, the band launched into fan favorite American Idiot with some choice lyrics change (like I’m not a part of a MAGA agenda). We suspect the reasons for the long intro is to make up the time the band has to fill, over an hour and 30 minutes (and many of their songs are quick 2-3 minute songs). Green Day was recently in Minneapolis last August, 2024 (alongside Smashing Pumpkins and Rancid), but their fanbase still showed up in force to see their favorite band close out the Minnesota Yacht Club. It’s clear that their music spans over generations, from fans in the 90s to teenagers, just discovering their music.”
