Rock N Roll Hall of Famers, Bon Jovi, have announced a return to touring, with dates scheduled for summer 2026.
The much-anticipated return of Bon Jovi to the live show arena is here! Today, the band announced shows in New York, London, Dublin, and Edinburgh. The tour will kick off at the iconic Madison Square Garden for four nights, starting on July 7, 2025.
As documented on Hulu’s docu-series, Jon Bon Jovi had vocal cord surgery and a lengthy rehabilitation process.
About today’s announcement, Jon Bon Jovi said, “There is a lot of joy in this announcement – joy that we can share these nights together with our amazing fans and joy that the band can be together. I am lucky enough to be able to hold a light out to the audience each night and stand in their reflection for a tremendous collective experience – I get to stand in the WE of our concerts. And I’ve spoken extensively on my gratitude but I will say it again, I’m deeply grateful that the fans and the brotherhood of this band have been patient and allowed me the time needed to get healthy and prepare for touring. I’m ready and excited!”

This tour announcement comes ahead of the release of FOREVER (Legendary Edition) which comes out this Friday. This album includes collaborations with Jason Isbell, Bruce Springsteen, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Robbie Williams, Joe Elliott, and more.
Talking about the new studio album, Jon Bon Jovi said, “This album is more than just a collection of collaborations, it is an album borne out of necessity. My vocal cord surgery and subsequent rehab was a well-documented journey that played out while releasing Forever in June 2024. I was singing well enough in the studio for the recording, but the vocal demands and rigors of touring were still out of reach for me. Without the ability to tour or promote an album we were all very proud of, I decided to call on some friends to help me in my time of need. All are great singers, artists, and also just great people. The result is an album with a new viewpoint and new spirit — a collaboration album that proves we all get by in this world with a little help from our friends. I feel tremendous joy and gratitude releasing this album and I think it shows in the music. I can say with certainty that there is always something bigger than ME, and that’s WE,”
