Bon Jovi are expanding their global Forever Tour. On Monday (Oct. 19), the Jon Bon Jovi-led Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group announced a string of seven additional dates for the outing, including their return to playing stadiums in the U.S., U.K., Canada and Australia.
After a nine-show residency at Madison Square Garden in New York in July and a trio of U.K. stadium shows in August and September, Bon Jovi said the tour has revitalized the veteran Jersey rockers following concerns that he might not be able to perform live again after undergoing vocal cord surgery in 2022.
“The Forever Tour has been an incredible celebration of the music and the fans who have been with us all these years,” the 64-year-old bandleader said in a statement. “From Madison Square Garden to Scotland, Ireland, and England, the energy and joy we shared with our fans this summer was something truly special. To look out and see thousands of faces singing along with us, night after night, is something we’ll never take for granted. We’re grateful for every one of you, and now we’re taking that celebration around the world in 2027, with more cities, more countries, and a whole lot more nights to remember. We can’t wait to see you out there!”
Fans can register for tickets for the North American dates now here for access to the artist presale beginning on Oct. 28 at 10 a.m. local time. Additional presales will take place throughout the week ahead of a general onsale on Oct. 30 at 10 a.m. local time. Click here for information on the U.K./Australian dates.
