Jon Bon Jovi has shared a new update on the 2026 Forever Tour ahead of tomorrow’s general sale (tickets via Seat Unique, Live Nation, and Ticketmaster).

As fans will know, the American rock group are heading on the road next year for seven show dates at Madison Square Garden in New York.

The Livin’ On A Prayer hitmakers will then treat fans on this side of the world to huge gigs in London, Edinburgh, and Dublin.

Presale kicked off earlier this week and tickets are in high demand with fans desperate to be a part of the crowd.

Further fuelling the ticketing frenzy, Jon Bon Jovi shared that this is not intended to be a farewell tour, but if these are his last shows, then fans can rest assured that they will be filled with joy.

Speaking on Elizabeth Day’s How To Fail podcast, the hitmaker shared, “I’ve always been a pretty resilient guy, and I’ve always had a will. My wife had said in the film, which was nice for her to say, ‘he would will it into existence’.

“I would just go and just plough through that field until I got to the other side. When I couldn’t, because I physically couldn’t, that was disheartening, but I didn’t want to not do it. I’m not doing this for the applause, I’m not doing it for the money, I’m not doing it for the fame.”

“I’ve had enough of all of it. But I would like to feel that joy and the resonance, even if it were only one last time. I don’t think this is anywhere near a farewell tour or anything like that, but if it were, you could trust that these few shows that I’ve announced are going to be joy filled because this gratitude, humility, opportunity to go out there and do it again is all heartfelt.”

So, what time does general sale start, and where can you buy tickets? Find out everything you need to know below.

Will Richie Sambora rejoin Bon Jovi for the tour?

Following the exciting tour announcement, fans have been asking one major question: What about Richie Sambora?

One fan tweeted, “Far enough in advance to convince Richie to come back?”

A second said: “Announce Richie’s return, and I’m in.” Another wrote, “Not buying a ticket unless Richie Sambora is with them.”

The tweets are in reference to former bandmate Richie Sambora, who left the band in the middle of their 2013 world tour to focus on co-parenting his daughter with ex-wife Heather Locklear.

Sambora was replaced by Bon Jovi’s current guitarist Phil X. There has been widespread speculation that Sambora will reunite with the band for the upcoming tour, but nothing has been confirmed.
