The Coors Light Birds Nest, the massive party tent and concert series at TPC Scottsdale, returns for the 2026 WM Phoenix Open with four nights of headline concerts held during the tournament.

The WM Phoenix Open itself runs from Feb. 2 to 8, but live music arrives a few days earlier. The 2026 Concert at the Coliseum takes over the stadium-style 16th hole on Saturday, Jan. 31, with a sold-out performance by The Killers before tournament play officially begins.

The Birds Nest then takes over midweek, kicking off Wednesday, Feb. 4, and running through Saturday, Feb. 7. The 2026 lineup blends country and hip-hop heavyweights, including Bailey Zimmerman, Zach Top, Nelly, Ludacris and Ja Rule.

Here’s everything to know about the concerts at the 2026 WM Phoenix Open, from the Coliseum show to the nightly party inside the Coors Light Birds Nest.
