Judy Collins: Sweet Judy Blue Eyes Farewell

Folk legend Judy Collins brings her "Sweet Judy Blue Eyes" farewell tour to Portland's Aladdin Theater, part of a run of more than 50 shows stretching from mid-2026 into spring 2027. The tour takes its name from "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes," the Stephen Stills song written about Collins and recorded by Crosby, Stills & Nash. Decades into her career, Collins remains best known for her interpretations of "Both Sides Now," "Send in the Clowns," and "Amazing Grace," and for helping shape the 1960s folk revival alongside contemporaries like Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen. Select dates on the tour feature guest performers such as Rosanne Cash, Mary Chapin Carpenter, and Amanda Shires. Despite the farewell framing, Collins has been candid that the label doesn't necessarily mean a final goodbye. Expect a seated theater show built around storytelling between songs as much as the performances themselves.
