Bryan Adams Announces Major North American Tour

The rock legend will perform across Canada and the U.S. this fall, supporting his upcoming album.

Canadian rocker Bryan Adams is set to embark on his "biggest tour in years" with a 40-date arena run in North America as part of his Roll With the Punches tour. The tour, announced Wednesday, is named after his 17th studio album, which will be released in "late summer" on Adams’ own label, Bad Records.

The tour begins on September 11, 2025, in Kamloops, B.C., with stops in nearly every province except Prince Edward Island, before heading south of the border to the U.S. The tour wraps up on November 26, 2025, in Minneapolis.

Adams expressed his excitement in a news release: "I’m so thrilled to be announcing the North American leg of the Roll With The Punches Tour. We’ll be playing all the classics, some deep cuts, and sharing some brand-new tracks from the forthcoming album." He will be joined by fellow Canadians The Sheepdogs in Canada, except for the Calgary and Kelowna dates, where Canadian pop-rock singer Amanda Marshall will take the stage.

Opening guests for his American dates will include '80s rocker Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo. The 2025 Roll With The Punches tour launched in New Zealand and Australia earlier this year and is headed to the U.K. and Ireland this May for 12 shows, followed by 35 dates across Europe.

Adams, who has been touring the world for over four decades, has achieved #1 status in over 40 countries. His music has earned him numerous awards, including a Grammy, American Music Awards, three Academy Award nominations, five Golden Globe nominations, and 18 JUNO Awards. He is also a Companion of the Order of Canada.

The upcoming album, Roll With the Punches, has already produced two singles: the title track, released in February 2025, and its follow-up, Make Up Your Mind, which has become a radio hit in the U.K. The album is set to support the tour and will be available on Adams' label, Bad Records.

For fans eager to catch the legendary musician live, pre-sale for tickets begins on April 29, 2025, with additional pre-sales running throughout the week. General sale begins May 2, 2025, at 10 a.m. local time.

In Regina, Adams will perform at the Brandt Centre in The REAL District on Sunday, September 28, 2025. Joining him will be Saskatoon’s own The Sheepdogs, promising a great night of Canadian music.

As the tour approaches, excitement is building among fans, eager to witness the magic of Adams’ live performances, which are known for their energy and nostalgia. With a career that includes iconic hits like "Summer of '69" and "Cuts Like a Knife," Adams is sure to deliver a memorable experience.

As he prepares for this extensive run of concerts, Adams continues to be a prominent figure in the music industry, praised not only for his musical talent but also for his humanitarian work, animal rights activism, and photography.

With the Roll With the Punches tour set to be a highlight of 2025, fans are encouraged to mark their calendars and secure their tickets early.
