Goo Goo Dolls join Def Leppard and The Struts for a rock bill at Simmons Bank Arena in North Little Rock, Arkansas, on April 16, 2027. The event is listed on northlittlerocktickets.com under Concerts and Pop / rock.
Formed in Buffalo, New York, in 1986, Goo Goo Dolls grew from punk and alternative roots into one of pop rock's most enduring bands. Vocalist and guitarist John Rzeznik and bassist and vocalist Robby Takac built a wide-ranging catalog that includes the 1998 album Dizzy Up the Girl and its signature songs “Iris,” “Slide,” and “Black Balloon.” “Name,” “Here Is Gone,” and “Big Machine” are other notable releases across the group's career.
The band's melodic songwriting and emotionally direct performances have helped connect with fans across generations. “Iris,” made famous in part through the film City of Angels, remains a defining song in the group's catalog and a natural singalong highlight. Goo Goo Dolls released Chaos in Bloom in 2022, continuing a career shaped by both new material and familiar favorites.
This North Little Rock appearance is part of a shared bill with Def Leppard and The Struts; the supplied event information does not specify a tour name, set times, or which act will close. The arena setting brings the show to the Arkansas River area, close to downtown Little Rock across the river. Prices currently start around $120, with major-event seats potentially reaching $500 or more depending on location and availability.
Simmons Bank Arena is a multipurpose arena in North Little Rock that hosts concerts and other large-scale events. Seating configurations vary by production, and the stage layout for this concert has not been provided. Check the event's current seating map before choosing tickets, since stage placement can affect sightlines and available floor or lower-bowl sections.
For a rock concert, lower-bowl seats facing the stage can offer a useful balance of clear views and arena-wide sound, while floor seats may put fans closer to the performance but can have sightlines affected by standing crowds. Review the specific seat location and event configuration rather than assuming every section will be arranged the same way.
Parking availability, rates, and operating arrangements can vary by event. Consider checking the arena's event-day parking guidance and comparing nearby options before travelling. Allow extra time for arrival, especially if driving from Little Rock or other parts of the metro area.
