""I think this year will probably be it," Henley stated. "And I've said things like that before, but I feel like we're getting toward the end and that will be fine, too." When asked to confirm whether 2026 will be the end of the Eagles, he added, "I'm okay with that.""
"Henley continued by explaining that he'd like to spend more time with family and "growing vegetables," as well as seeing more than "the airports and the hotel room and the venue" at some of the same places that the Eagles have been on tour, "before it all gets vaporized." "I don't ever want to have a one-dimensional life," he said. "I have two nonprofit environmental organizations that I chair and that I feel are really important for conservation and preservation. I have four kids and a grandchild. There's just lots of other things to do.""
"Elsewhere in the interview, Henley reacted with "amazement and gratitude" to the Eagles' compilation Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975 recently being certified quadruple diamond. Watch the full sitdown below. The Eagles are in the midst of their purportedly final Sphere residency dates. The classic rockers' Vegas run launched in September 2024 and has since been extended several times."
Don Henley believes the Eagles' more-than-five-decade "miraculous run" will probably end this year and he is comfortable with that outcome. He notes the band remains among the last of their generation still playing live. He wants to spend more time with family, grow vegetables, and experience tour locations beyond airports, hotel rooms, and venues before they disappear. He rejects a one-dimensional life, chairs two environmental nonprofits focused on conservation and preservation, and mentions four children and a grandchild. Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975 reached quadruple diamond status. The Eagles are performing a final Sphere residency in Las Vegas that launched in September 2024 and has been extended multiple times.
