A 13-show lineup scheduled from September 2026 through July 2027

Broadway in Atlanta has announced its 2026-27 season at the Fox Theatre, opening with the return of “Hamilton” and including a mix of touring favorites and first-time Atlanta engagements. The schedule spans September 2026 through July 2027, continuing the Fox Theatre’s long-running role as metro Atlanta’s primary home for national Broadway tours.

The season begins with “Hamilton,” set for Sept. 2–20, 2026, followed by a fall run of “Buena Vista Social Club” (Oct. 27–Nov. 1, 2026) and “Death Becomes Her” (Nov. 17–22, 2026). A holiday booking, “’Twas the Night Before…” by Cirque du Soleil, is scheduled for Dec. 2–13, 2026, with “Mrs. Doubtfire” arriving immediately after, Dec. 15–20, 2026.

Local premieres and returning long-runners

Organizers said the season includes six local premieres, a programming strategy that balances established blockbusters with newer titles that have recently entered the national touring circuit. Several shows in the lineup are also tied to well-known film or pop-culture properties, reflecting the broader touring-market trend toward recognizable stories.

  • “Hamilton” — Sept. 2–20, 2026
  • “Buena Vista Social Club” — Oct. 27–Nov. 1, 2026

  • “Mrs. Doubtfire” — Dec. 15–20, 2026
  • “BOOP! The Musical” — Jan. 12–17, 2027
  • “Water for Elephants” — Feb. 2–7, 2027
  • “Wicked” — March 3–28, 2027
  • “The Notebook” — April 13–18, 2027
  • “The Bodyguard” — May 14–16, 2027
  • “Beetlejuice” — June 11–13, 2027
  • “Operation Mincemeat” — July 6–11, 2027

How the 2026-27 calendar fits into the current Broadway-in-Atlanta timeline

The announcement arrives as the Fox Theatre continues its 2025-26 Broadway engagements into mid-2026, with productions listed on the venue’s calendar through July 2026. The newly released 2026-27 slate picks up shortly after, indicating a programming cadence that maintains Broadway touring presence at the Fox across consecutive seasons.

In addition to the headline titles, the season schedule emphasizes weeklong engagements for several productions and extended runs for major blockbusters, including a multiweek booking of “Wicked.”

Ticket-sale timing and subscription details were not fully specified in the season listing, with multiple events marked for sale dates to be announced.
