By Felo News Desk · Published
Bon Jovi announced on Instagram that their 2027 "Forever Tour" will travel to stadiums in Australia, the United Kingdom and North America from March through August, including a July 15 show at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
What happened
The band shared the tour schedule on Instagram, saying, "More cities, more countries, and a whole lot more nights with you guys." The itinerary lists a June 24 concert at Hyde Park in London, a July 15 performance at MetLife Stadium, a July 21 show at Soldier Field in Chicago, a July 28 gig at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, and an August 4 stop at Rogers Stadium in Toronto. Ticket sales to the general public begin on Friday, Oct. 23 at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster, with secondary‑market options such as Vivid Seats already listed.
What the reports add
The New York Post notes that the 2027 run follows the band’s 2026 "Forever Tour" summer leg, which featured nine Madison Square Garden shows after frontman Jon Bon Jovi’s vocal surgery. Set List FM data show the band typically performed 21 songs per show, with staples like "Livin’ on a Prayer," "It’s My Life," "Wanted Dead or Alive," "You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Bad Medicine." The outlet also includes a full setlist from the July 7, 2026 Madison Square Garden concert.
What was said
Bon Jovi’s Instagram post read, "We’re taking the Forever Tour worldwide in 2027! Can’t wait to see you out there!" Post editor Will Kenton, a self‑described Bon Jovi superfan, praised the band’s live energy, saying, "Hearing the band live and seeing them onstage took me back to the days when rock was what we swam in all summer long," and added, "It was so much better seeing them live. You really get the beat and groove of the group in a way that you don’t when listening to them on vinyl, radio or streaming services."
How it came about
The tour follows the release of Bon Jovi’s 16th studio album, "Forever," in June 2024. After a hiatus for Jon Bon Jovi’s vocal surgery, the band returned to the stage with a summer 2026 run, culminating in the nine‑date Madison Square Garden residency. The new stadium dates were revealed as part of the band’s broader 2027 touring strategy, aligning with other major 2027 tours announced recently, such as Zach Bryan’s 23‑stadium dates and Calvin Harris’s North American arena run.
