Bon Jovi are officially heading back on the road. The beloved rock band has announced the Forever tour. It will be their first set of live performances since 2022. The trek announcement comes following frontman Jon Bon Jovi's recovery from vocal cord surgery that had sidelined him from touring for nearly four years.
Following Jon Bon Jovi's vocal cord surgery in 2022, the band's touring future was uncertain for many fans. The recovery process was relatively long. Notably, this was also documented in the 2024 Hulu series Thank You, Goodnight: The Bon Jovi Story. Now, Jon is all set to return to the stage.
In an official statement, Jon Bon Jovi shared:
"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."
He also added:
"And I have spoken extensively on my gratitude but I will say it again, I am 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 band announced their upcoming 2026 live run via an official Instagram post, captioning:
