Possibly an EE one for Wembley I would guess.

That's for UK.

interesting that suddenly RDS is being mentioned! Munich is fantastic venue, i really enjoyed the show there the last time and also the surrounding area. Was hoping for Milan this time.

not seeing RDS on ticketmaster, the June dates are crap for me and if its the 15th crap, would prefer the 29/30. Still think more dates will be announced, you might get Milan

There's no date for Italy. There's a special arrangement for Italian fans for the show in Switzerland.

There will most likely be an Irish date announced later on but I wouldn't bet on getting a whole lot of other shows. The schedule looks pretty tight and the band will probably have a week off before or after Dublin. There's room for a few festival shows but I wouldn't bet on getting many more shows.

Only 18 dates plus Ireland soon. What about Portugal,France,Italy,Hungary,Greece,Croatia,Serbi a and is it statement about 43 cities true or false? Is that information from the band organisation?

GO on the O2 Priority tickets site/app and its listed there.

Not that they notified me despite being an O2 customer and Bon Jovi fan :rolleyes:

I don't think any of these are likely. They have learned to scale down in terms of number of shows. And most of these countries are not regulars, not even Italy, France or Portugal have had shows constantly. I think the pacing of the schedule plus the amount of shows is quite good considering the band's age and Jon's vocal struggles.

Greece got one show in 35 years. Croatia, Serbia got zero. They could do a Croatia or Serbia show the least. Don’t forget that Jon and Richie in various interviews kept mentioning Greece as a big surprise and if their best concerts during the 2011 Open Air tour. Greece had the most expensive tickets of the tour yet the Olympic Stadium of Athens was sold out. Bon Jovi got many fans in Greece plus thousands of tourists passing by Athens in the summer. If they could sell out a gig, a Greek one would be very likely. Last but not least, Jon visits regularly Greece for his summer vacation along with his family

Yet again, Greece has 24% tax on concerts which will be reduced to 6% in the next couple of months. The Greek festivals didn’t make any announcement yet so unless it happens at a later date along with Dublin, Bon Jovi won’t return to Greece for now. I’m going to Bucharest. If a Greek date occurs then even better!

It just makes you wonder why Tallinn or Bucharest and not Athens, they did great the last time they’ve been here.

After trying to make sense of the travelling schedule I think there'll be 4 more dates. I've got a feeling Dublin will be June 15 and I reckon there's 2 dates on hold. 1 in Scotland/England and 1 in Germany. If the English and German dates are selling well enough they'll announce more. The Manic Street Preachers have also skipped Glasgow on their own tour. And I think Jon confirmed a French show several times, which would make show number 4.

Personal guess:

June 15: Dublin
June 17: Glasgow
June 29: Hannover
July 1: Paris



Because Tallinn is on the route from Russia to Scandinavia. They "need" a date there to fill the gap. The band travel with two stages and a truck with their gear. The truck with their gear travels from Moscow to Tallinn while the stage travels from Moscow to Stavanger. Or something like this, you'll get the idea, I think. :)

The reason they're doing all these shows in other countries than Germany and the U.K. is because they've saturated the Western European market while they ignored Eastern Europe for a long time due to it being financially unattractive. Things have changed around and thus a place like Tallinn or Warsaw is interesting right now. It's got nothing to do with Croatia deserving a show. No promoter thinks that way and unless Jon puts his foot down a show won't happen in a financially unattractive market.

Jon going on holiday to a certain country has nothing to do with a band touring there. It's two completely different things. There's so much more going on than your 24% tax break and the likes. It's never the places that "deserve" a show, they mention a few cities they want to play and then the rest of the schedule is build around it. Then there's subsidies, promotion deals, tax breaks, ferry connections, insurance policies...The list is endless.

Tel Aviv is scheduled for July 25th but for some reasons the local promoter is not allowed to announce it until December.

Except for these 2 shows the tour is done IMO.

If it turns out to be true, I'm glad that they'll play the RDS rather than Croke Park. I just couldn't seem them filling Croke Park. It's damage limitation at this point.

It would be great to see them play Israel particularly with all the 'boycott-Israel' nonsense that's been doing the rounds.

Just realize that the organisation will be, well, different. With every international act playing in Russia there's complaints from people who travel to go see an act there how organisation is terrible and the event will start before everyone is in the building. When I was in Russia I felt the same, I didn't like the country due to their incapabilities of organising anything to do with large crowds.

My vote would go to Vienna or Madrid. Madrid will have the better crowd but Vienna is a better city to visit. It's a bit more expensive but there's a lot more to see in the city as with Madrid you'll have to leave the city to see the more special things Spain has to offer. Skip Wembley. London is a fantastic city but the shows in London have never been the best of the tour, it's only the English and Jon Bon Jovi himself who thinks so.
