Bon Jovi – announce ‘Forever Tour’ and return to live shows in 2026 and will play Dublin’s Croke Park

BON JOVI, the GRAMMY Award®-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band and one of history’s most iconic live acts, announces today a series of global concert dates that will mark the band’s much anticipated return to live touring with shows in New York, London, Dublin and Edinburgh. Starting in July of 2026 at New York’s famed Madison Square Garden and concluding at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium.  The tour is produced by Live Nation, the full itinerary is below and at www.BonJovi.com.

The tour announcement comes after a much documented vocal cord surgery and rehab process seen in the critically acclaimed Hulu docu-series Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story.  Speaking to 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!”

In tandem with today’s tour announcement, the band will release their latest studio album FOREVER (Legendary Edition) out Friday which is a star-studded collaboration album featuring reimagined takes on the band’s latest songs from their FOREVER album with some of the biggest names in music.  See below for TRACKLISTING which includes a diverse array of artists including Bruce Springsteen, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Jason Isbell, Carin Leon, Joe Elliott, Robbie Williams, Avril Lavigne and more.

Speaking to the album process 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,”
