Bon Jovi Confirm 2027 Tour Plans Following Wembley Stadium Wrap
Bon Jovi have officially closed the book on their Forever Tour with a massive finale at London’s Wembley Stadium. But for fans worried about when the band might hit the road again, frontman Jon Bon Jovi had immediate reassurance.
Speaking to the crowd on Wednesday night, the singer made it clear that retirement isn’t on the horizon. “I ain’t done, I ain’t done,” he told the audience, as reported by the Asbury Park Press. “I’m taking it all in because after tonight it’s going to be a long five or so months before we go back on the road. We are booking a tour right now for next year.”
While those remarks point to a busy schedule ahead, exact details regarding specific dates, venues, or regions for the upcoming run have not yet been announced.
Tour Finale Surprises and Vocal Recovery
The London wrap-up also brought a couple of unexpected deep cuts to the setlist. Bon Jovi pulled out two songs that hadn’t seen live action earlier on the trek. The band played “Captain Crash & the Beauty Queen From Mars,” marking their first live performance of the track since June of 2019. They also dusted off “Love’s the Only Rule” from their 2009 album The Circle.
The conclusion of the Forever Tour marks a major milestone for the frontman. This trek was the first heavy touring schedule the band has tackled since Jon Bon Jovi underwent vocal cord surgery in 2022. Following the procedure, the singer openly admitted he questioned whether he would ever be able to return to the stage.
Explaining the health scare to People earlier this year, he noted that one of his vocal cords had literally begun atrophying despite his history as a trained vocalist with no damaging lifestyle habits. Fortunately, the operation and subsequent recovery went according to plan, paving the way for a triumphant return to live performances and the newly announced plans for next year.
