Bryan Adams has extended his ‘Roll With the Punches’ world tour, adding more than 60 shows between now and the end of 2026 and close to a dozen more already booked for 2027. The newly expanded run comes just after Adams wrapped an extensive tour alongside Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo, and it currently stretches all the way to June 19, 2027, in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

  • Next leg begins August 24, 2026, in Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, with several stops in Adams’ native Ontario
  • Canadian dates wrap up September 15 in Abbotsford, British Columbia
  • European dates open September 30 in Rostock, Germany, with additional shows in the Netherlands and Belgium
  • A Las Vegas residency at the Wynn Las Vegas runs October 28 through November 1, 2026

Why Bryan Adams Keeps Touring So Much

Adams told Ultimate Classic Rock’s Gary Graff that the reason he keeps adding dates is simple: the phone keeps ringing. He said he has “a hard time saying no” when more shows are offered because “the wheels are in motion and everybody knows what they’re doing and we have a good time.”

New Bryan Adams Album and ‘Roll With the Punches’ Follow-Up

Adams said fans can expect another album this fall, which he described to Graff as “sort of a love letter to Canada.” The announcement follows his 2025 album ‘Roll With the Punches,’ which was later joined this year by the ‘Tough Town’ collection. That release started as a bonus tied to ‘Roll With the Punches,’ was issued as a Record Store Day release earlier this year, and is now available via streaming.

Bryan Adams’ New Single ’51st State’ Takes Aim at Donald Trump

Alongside the tour and album news, Adams has released a one-off single called “51st State,” written for an upcoming documentary. The song’s lyrics take direct aim at Donald Trump, a notable departure for an artist not previously known for overtly political material.

“If certain people can say what they want, so can I. It’s just his garbage,” Adams said. “You want to think people can see through that stupidity, but I don’t know.” He admitted he was unsure how the song would be received performing it in the southern United States this past summer, but said the response surprised him: “It’s unbelievable how well it goes over. I’m singing about my country, so who cares? I think they get it. And if they can’t take a … joke, too bad.”
