Jefferson Starship brings its Runaway Again Tour 2026 to The Newton Theatre, 234 Spring Street in Newton, on Thursday, Nov. 19, 2026. Doors open at 7 PM and the show starts at 8 PM, according to the Skylands Performing Arts Center events list, and the show is open to all ages.
The band behind arena rock hits of the 1970s and 1980s has earned three platinum and eight gold records, plus a long run of Top 40 Billboard singles, per the event listing. It is one of the biggest names on the Newton Theatre’s November calendar, and a Thursday night show leaves the weekend free for holiday plans.

Kantner died in 2016, and the band says his spirit of adventure still drives its shows.
