It’s time to return to the best days of your life.
Bryan Adams just announced he’s going to hit arenas all over North America on his fall 2025 ‘Roll With The Punches Tour’ with Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo joining him for all US dates.
While on the nationwide run, the co-headliners are scheduled to drop into New York City’s Madison Square Garden on Thursday, Oct. 30.
“We’ll be playing all the classics, some deep cuts, and new tracks from the upcoming album,” Adams, 65, shared on Instagram.
The “upcoming album” Adams is referring to is “Roll With The Punches,” which shares a name with the tour and is due out sometime later this year. As of now, two lead singles — “Roll With The Punches” and “Make Up Your Mind” — have been released.
This run follows the “Heaven” crooner’s extensive international summer jaunt where he’s slated to hit venues all over Great Britain and Germany from May through August.
Perhaps most interestingly of all though, this series of shows will be the first time the workhorse rock icons cross paths.
“I’ve never met Pat in my life,” Adams told USA Today. “I was probably busy touring in the ‘80s and she was touring, too.”
Fans that would like to see these ’80s legends together for the first time can purchase tickets for all upcoming Bryan Adams shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale is Friday, May 2.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

Bryan Adams new music
As noted above, Adams has released a pair of singles ahead of the release of “Roll With The Punches.”
First up is the impassioned stadium anthem “Roll With The Punches” that wouldn’t sound out of place in a Def Leppard set. It’s a fist-pumper that builds to an epic singalong crescendo that’s way more rock and roll than pop.
After that, Adams dropped the thoughtful “Make Up Your Mind.” Although it’s a bit softer, the song still finds ways to break the mold. A stunning guitar solo around the 2:20 mark — which may remind some listeners of “Summer of ’69” — smolders. If this is any indication of what the album will bring, fans are in for a treat.
