One week after Bon Jovi announced their return to the road on The Forever Tour, the band have added seventh and eighth concert dates at Madison Square Garden in NYC due to overwhelming demand.
The Forever Tour will kick off in July 2026 with the Madison Square Garden dates, before heading to the U.K (including one date at London’s Wembley Stadium) and also a second London date on Sunday, September 6th. Additional dates will take the band to Edinburgh and Ireland – marking their first shows there since 2019.
The tour comes after lead singer Jon Bon Jovi’s 2022 vocal cord surgery that halted the band’s live performances. Jon previously revealed that after struggling with vocal cord issues he had undergone a reconstructive procedure known as vocal cord medialization. He said in a statement upon announcing the tour: “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!”
Bon Jovi recently released the “Legendary Edition” of its 16th studio album “Forever,” featuring reimagined versions of the songs on ‘Forever’ featuring Bruce Springsteen, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, Jason Isbell, Carin Leon, Joe Elliott, Robbie Williams, Avril Lavigne and more.
