Rock and Roll Hall of Famers and GRAMMY Award®-winning icons Bon Jovi are officially returning to the stage in 2026 for a long-awaited global tour, marking their triumphant comeback following frontman Jon Bon Jovi’s highly publicized vocal cord surgery and recovery. The tour kicks off in July 2026 at New York City’s legendary Madison Square Garden before heading overseas for major shows in London, Dublin, and Edinburgh.
The announcement has already ignited massive excitement among fans, leading to multiple sold-out dates and the addition of several new shows — including a ninth and final night at Madison Square Garden and a second show at London’s Wembley Stadium, both announced today.
In a statement, Jon Bon Jovi shared his gratitude and enthusiasm for the upcoming 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,” he said. “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!”
The tour follows the success of the Hulu docu-series Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story, which chronicled Jon Bon Jovi’s journey through vocal cord surgery and rehabilitation, giving fans an intimate look at the challenges and triumphs behind the band’s enduring legacy.
Since forming in 1983, Bon Jovi has become one of the most celebrated rock bands in the world, with over 130 million albums sold, countless chart-topping hits including “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “Wanted Dead or Alive,” and “It’s My Life,” and a reputation for delivering electrifying live performances.
With their 2026 global tour, Bon Jovi promises to bring that same energy, gratitude, and connection back to fans worldwide — reigniting arenas and hearts across continents.
