Bon Jovi bring the Forever Tour to Wembley Stadium for three nights on 4, 6 and 9 September 2026. The last of them closes the tour.
Bon Jovi were formed in New Jersey in 1983, after Jon Bon Jovi cut a demo with session players and decided he wanted a band of his own. Slippery When Wet made them a stadium act three years later: “Livin’ on a Prayer”, “You Give Love a Bad Name” and “Wanted Dead or Alive” all came off it, and it went to number one. Richie Sambora left the guitar chair in 2013 and Phil X took it in 2016, but David Bryan and Tico Torres have been beside the singer since the start, and the band went into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018.
In 2022 a doctor told Jon Bon Jovi that one of his vocal cords was atrophying. He had major surgery and has spent the years since in rehabilitation, which is why the Forever Tour is the band’s first run in four years and his first since the operation. It opened with four nights at Madison Square Garden in July and reached Europe by way of Edinburgh and Dublin.
Wembley closes it. Three nights — Friday 4, Sunday 6 and Wednesday 9 September 2026 — and the last of them is the final date of the tour. The record behind it is Forever, reissued as a Legendary Edition with the songs recut alongside other artists.
