Bon Jovi fans have revealed 'the best' MSG show date to book ahead of tomorrow's general sale tomorrow (10am EDT on Friday, October 31).
In case you missed it, the legendary rock group have announced three extra Madison Square Garden gigs for July 2026, due to overwhelming demand.
Bon Jovi will then head to the UK and Ireland for shows in Edinburgh, London, and Dublin. As predicted, presale quickly sold out, and was described by one fan as a 'feeding frenzy'.
Ahead of general sale, fans have been sharing their thoughts on which is the best MSG date to book.
On Reddit, one fan asked, "Any thoughts on which night at MSG could be the best? The seventh, since it is opening night? The twelfth, because he'll have two rest days since the previous concert? Or fourteenth, as he might give it all since it's the last night? Curious what people are thinking..."
"For ease of buying, everything except Sunday are better choices," one replied. "I think Sunday (July 12) will be the hottest day since it's the weekend. The rest of the days are business days."
A third agreed, as they added: "I always go for the best odds of getting a ticket i.e the weekdays. Got one for Thursday, July 9."
So, how can you make sure to book the best tickets when general sale opens? Find out everything you need to know below.
General sale starts at 10am (EDT) on Friday, October 31 via Live Nation and Ticketmaster.
According to fans on Reddit, it's recommended that you log in to your chosen ticketing site 15 minutes before, so that's 9.45am.
Resale tickets are likely to become available via TicketNetwork and SeatGeek.
To avoid ticket scams and ensure a money-back guarantee, always purchase resale tickets through verified sites.
The tour announcement comes almost six years after Jon Bon Jovi took a break from the spotlight to focus on his health, following vocal cord surgery.
The set list has not yet been confirmed, but one of their last live performances in 2022 will give fans a good idea of what to expect on the night.
The Forever Tour will will begin in July 2026 with seven nights at Madison Square Garden, New York.
For those of you based in the UK and Ireland, you'll have the chance to be a part of the crowd on August 28 at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin's Croke Park on August 30.
The UK tour will wrap up on September 4 at Wembley Stadium in London (buy UK tickets here). You can find out when they're coming to a city near you below. See you there?
