Bon Jovi will Circle back to Canada next spring and summer.
The New Jersey pop-rock superstars announced details of their upcoming tour yesterday, and the two-year trek includes half a dozen Canadian stops.
Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, David Bryan and Tico Torres will play two nights in Montreal's Bell Centre in March, with a series of Western Canadian stadium shows slated for July. Ticket prices and on- sale dates were not announced yesterday, though some shows could go on sale as early as Nov. 9.
The band is celebrating its 25th anniversary with the release of its 11th studio album The Circle on Nov. 10. The DVD documentary When We Were Beautiful — which follows the band on their 2008 Lost Highway Tour — will be included in the deluxe version of the album, and a book with the same title due in stores Nov. 3.
The Circle World tour — which was announced yesterday at a private concert by the band in their home state — begins Feb. 19 in Seattle and will include 135 shows in 30 countries over the next two years.
They will be the first band to play the New Meadowlands Stadium on May 26 and 27.
