Bon Jovi concert chronology |
The Circle Tour was a worldwide concert tour in 2010 by American rock band Bon Jovi to promote their 11th studio album The Circle (2009).[2] The tour started in North America and progressed to Europe, South America, Asia and Australia. It included a 12-night run at the O2 Arena in London and four nights in East Rutherford, New Jersey to celebrate the opening of the Meadowlands Stadium. The tour was the #1 top-grossing concert tour for 2010 in the United States.
Bon Jovi also played a free performance for fans and former season ticket holders of the Jon Bon Jovi-owned arena football team The Philadelphia Soul on March 24, 2010, a few hours before the band's show at Philadelphia's Wachovia Center. The band ended the first year of the tour in Australasia, playing two shows in New Zealand and eight shows in Australia.[3]
