Spinal Tap at Stonehenge: The Final Finale, a concert film capturing Spinal Tap’s “final” performance at Stonehenge in England, will arrive in theaters and IMAX in 2026.
The film will follow Spinal Tap members Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, Harry Shearer, and new drummer Valerie Franco as they perform the first-ever rock concert at Stonehenge — the namesake of one of their classic songs. Throughout the set, they’ll be joined by special guests including Eric Clapton, Shania Twain, and Josh Groban.
The concert film was originally captured at Stonehenge in August 2025, but none of the footage was featured in the new Spinal Tap sequel, Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. Directed by Rob Reiner, Spinal Tap at Stonehenge will be released by Bleecker Street and Vertigo Live. A teaser trailer is out now; watch it below.

“I’m told this is it. They’re really serious this time,” said Kent Sanderson, CEO of Bleecker Street, in a statement. “While this is ostensibly the end, how fitting is it that this actual-probable-send-off is shot, historically, at Stonehenge, the mysterious landmark that we now know must have been erected thousands of years ago purely to serve as the setting for the last act of Spinal Tap.”
“Bringing Spinal Tap to Stonehenge felt inevitable — the ultimate meeting of rock mythology and cinematic scale,” Vertigo Live CEO Ian Brenchley added. “An iconic band performing at one of the world’s most legendary landmarks, captured in Imax and, of course, turned up to eleven. This is exactly what we set out to do: take music beyond the stage, beyond the ordinary, and turn it into living cinema. An experience unlike anything before it — and the perfect finale to rock’s most enduring legend.”
Of course, Stonehenge is an integral part of the original 1984 movie This Is Spinal Tap, where the band performs the song “Stonehenge” around a hilariously small 18-inch model of the historical landmark. The song pops up again in the sequel, this time with the help of Elton John, and a much larger prop.
