Stadium Rock Returns: Bon Jovi Maps Out the 2027 Leg of The Forever Tour
Seven new stadium dates span Australia, London, and a summer run across North America, marking the band’s first trip Down Under in more than eight years.
Bon Jovi has officially announced a seven-date global stadium expansion of The Forever Tour for 2027. The run starts in Australia this coming March, with large-scale shows at Melbourne’s Marvel Stadium and Sydney’s Accor Stadium, then moves to London before closing with a summer stadium leg across North America.
The announcement carries real weight for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band. It follows years of uncertainty over frontman Jon Bon Jovi’s vocal health, including vocal cord surgery in 2022, and it confirms that the band is back to booking the biggest rooms in the world. The Australian dates are also the group’s first trek Down Under in over eight years, which makes the opening of the run a long-awaited event for fans on that side of the world.
The 2027 Forever Tour Schedule
The newly added stadium dates bridge Australia, the United Kingdom, and a major summer stadium leg back home in North America.
| Date | Venue & Location |
|---|---|
| March 4, 2027 | Marvel Stadium – Melbourne, Australia |
| March 11, 2027 | Accor Stadium – Sydney, Australia |
| June 24, 2027 | BST Hyde Park – London, UK |
| July 15, 2027 | MetLife Stadium – East Rutherford, NJ |
| July 21, 2027 | Soldier Field – Chicago, IL |
| July 28, 2027 | Gillette Stadium – Foxborough, MA |
| August 4, 2027 | Rogers Stadium – Toronto, ON |
The route is a mix of the biggest stadiums in each market. In the Northeast, MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, is the closest date for fans in the New York and Philadelphia area, and it lands on July 15. Chicago, Foxborough, and Toronto fill out a North American leg built around the traditional summer stadium season.
Ticket Information
- Australia: General public ticket sales for the Australian stadium shows open Friday, October 23, 2026, through Ticketmaster Australia.
- North America: Registration for the North American dates is currently live on the band’s official website. The artist presale begins October 28, 2026, followed by the general public sale on October 30, 2026.
Fans who want the best shot at tickets should sign up for the registration on the band’s site now, since the artist presale arrives a week from today.
Building on a Big 2026
The 2027 expansion follows a 2026 leg that, by the numbers, showed the band’s drawing power was fully intact. The 2026 run included a nine-night sold-out residency at New York’s Madison Square Garden, which grossed $31.4 million. It also featured stadium appearances at Wembley Stadium in London, Edinburgh, and Dublin.
That track record helps explain the scale of the new announcement. A band that sold out Madison Square Garden for nine nights and filled stadiums across the UK and Ireland has the numbers to justify a stadium run on three continents. For Jon Bon Jovi, whose voice was in question only a few years ago, the schedule is a clear statement about where the band stands.
With dates on sale starting this week, The Forever Tour is shaping up to be one of the biggest stadium runs of 2027.
