We’ve got good news for people who love “Bad Medicine.”
Bon Jovi just announced their 2027 Forever Tour that will send them to stadiums all over Australia, United Kingdom and North America from March through August.
That includes a stop at East Rutherford, NJ’s MetLife Stadium on Thursday, July 15.
“More cities, more countries, and a whole lot more nights with you guys,” the ’80s icons shared on Instagram. “We’re taking the Forever Tour worldwide in 2027! Can’t wait to see you out there!”
All shows come on the heels of the Rock Hall of Famers’ run this past summer — their first proper outing since frontman Jon Bon Jovi’s vocal surgery following the group’s 2022 trek — which included nine shows at Madison Square Garden.
Based on our findings at Set List FM, the New Jersey natives typically rocked 21 songs per show. Notable tracks that often made the cut included fan favorites “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “It’s My Life,” “Wanted Dead or Alive,” “You Give Love a Bad Name” and, of course “Bad Medicine.”
The Post had an absolute blast seeing him live, too.
“Hearing the band live and seeing them onstage took me back to the days when rock was what we swam in all summer long,” Post editor (and Bon Jovi superfan) Will Kenton noted in a rave review.
“It was so much better seeing them live [though]. You really get the beat and groove of the group in a way that you don’t when listening to them on vinyl, radio or streaming services.”
See you there, LaFamigliaJovi.

Bon Jovi new music
In June 2024, Bon Jovi released their 16th studio album “Forever.” The record, which hit No. 5 on the US Billboard 200 charts, was the group’s first since 2020’s aptly-titled “2020.”
And, a little over a year later, they dropped the 12-track “Legendary Edition” of “Forever” on Oct. 24, 2025.
If you’d like to hear for yourself — including the melancholy “Hollow Man” with Bruce Springsteen, stadium anthem-ready “Living Proof” featuring Jelly Roll and uplifting “We Made It Look Easy” alongside Robbie Williams — you can find the star-studded album here.
Other collaborators on “Forever” include James Bay, The War and Treaty, Lainey Wilson, Avril Lavigne and Carín León among others.

Huge rockers on tour in 2026-27
If you’re still stuck in the 20th century, you’re not alone.
After a bit of parsing the web, we found that many of the biggest names from rock and roll’s heyday are striking out yet again in ’26. Here are just five of our favorites you won’t want to miss live when they take their hits to the people.
• RUSH
• Sting
• Def Leppard with Goo Goo Dolls
Also, Stevie Wonder is striking out on a brief tour celebrating the 50th anniversary of his seminal 1976 album “Songs in the Key of Life.” Don’t miss out- we have a feeling those shows will be special.
