Bon Jovi is getting ready to return to the stage with its first tour in more than four years, marking a major moment for the band and its longtime fans.
The band announced the Forever Tour, which begins with nine shows at Madison Square Garden in New York. Those performances are currently the only U.S. dates on the schedule before the tour moves overseas.
The run also carries extra attention because it follows Jon Bon Jovi’s vocal cord surgery in 2022 and his recovery process. His health and return to performing were also part of the 2024 documentary Thank You, Good Night: The Bon Jovi Story.
Jon Bon Jovi has said he is grateful for the patience fans have shown while he worked his way back. The upcoming shows are expected to include a mix of the band’s biggest songs, including classics that have been part of its live identity for decades.
After New York, the tour is set to continue in Ireland, Scotland, and London, including a stop at Wembley Stadium.
