We’re more than “halfway there.”
Ten months after announcing his MSG residency, Bon Jovi will finally kick off their nine-concert ‘Forever Tour’ run at the Garden on Tuesday, July 7.
The extended stay will keep the Rock Hall of Famers at the Knicks and Rangers home for nearly three weeks; their last show is scheduled to down on Sunday, July 26.
If you’d like to see the ’80s hit-makers belt to the rafters, last-minute tickets are available to catch Jon, David Bryan, Tico Torres, Hugh McDonald, Phil X, John Shanks and Everett Bradley live at MSG.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one show was $236 including fees on SeatGeek (that’s for the Tuesday, July 14 gig).

Bon Jovi’s last two shows at the Garden were in May 2018 as part of their ‘This House Is Not For Sale Tour.’ According to Set List FM, they played 23 songs per show including hits “Wanted Dead or Alive,” “Bad Medicine,” “Runaway,” “It’s My Life” and, of course, “Livin’ on a Prayer.”
“Their show was upbeat, entertaining and fun,” Digital Journal reported after the concert. “The entire band rocked as a whole. They proved that their recent induction into the prestigious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was long-overdue and based on merit.”
In the years since, the Sayreville natives have gone on tour (2022’s brief outing that skipped New York), dealt with lead singer Jon Bon Jovi’s vocal surgery and released their 16th studio album “Forever” — which shares a name with the upcoming sort-of tour — in 2024.
As for what to expect at their Garden shows is anyone’s guess.
All we know is the best to find out what they have in store for fans Bonjoviologists is live and in person.

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.
