Hershey, PA – February 1, 2010 – Following Bon Jovi’s extraordinary fan-voted performance at last night’s 52nd annual GRAMMY Awards ceremony, the band has announced that their 2010-2011 “The Circle World Tour,” will arrive at Hersheypark Stadium on Wednesday, May 19th, 2010. Currently gearing up for their February 19th tour kick-off in Seattle, the legendary band will spend much of the next two years on the road, performing 135 shows in 30 countries. “The Circle World Tour” follows hot on the heels of Bon Jovi’s 11th studio album, The Circle, which was released November 10, 2009 and promptly sailed into the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart.
Tickets for the May 19th performance will go on sale Saturday, February 6th at 10:00AM and can be purchased at Giant Center Box Office (550 West Hersheypark Drive, Hershey, PA 17033); online at www.HersheyEntertainment.com; by phone at 877-598-6504 or 717-534-3911. Tickets are subject to applicable service charges and event time and date are subject to change. Log on to http://www.bonjovi.com for the most up to date concert and ticket on-sale information.
Following in the footsteps of their hugely successful “Lost Highway Tour—Billboard’s #1 top-grossing tour of 2008—Bon Jovi will draw fans around the world into The Circle, with a residency at London’s O2 Arena in June 2010 before returning to America in the fall for an additional nationwide leg, and further dates well into 2011. Tickets for "The Circle World Tour" are on sale now for North American concerts - information can be found at http://www.bonjovi.com/tour.
The new album's success--which includes #1 chart debuts in Japan, Canada and Germany, and a #2 debut in the UK--is fueled by the band's current worldwide single, "We Weren't Born to Follow." Bon Jovi performed the song live at Berlin's Brandenburg Gate on November 9th, at the gala 20th Anniversary commemoration of the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. "We Weren't Born to Follow" has reached the Top 10 at Hot AC radio formats, and the video has scored a spot on the VH1 Top 20 Countdown for several weeks.

The single will split all proceeds 50/50 between DEC (Disasters Emergency Committee) and The Sun newspaper’s “Helping Haiti’ appeal. Prime Minister Gordon Brown has pledged to waive VAT on the single. The Haitian earthquake, which occurred on 12th January 2010 measuring a catastrophic 7.0 on the richter scale, is already estimated to have caused the deaths of over 250,000 people. 250,000 are in need of urgent aid and more than 2 million people are estimated homeless and in need of long term support to help rebuild their lives. Robbie Williams said:** "I'm very honoured to be asked to contribute to the single. We can all do something to help the people of Haiti - and I urge everyone to do what they can."
Cheryl Cole said “It’s heartbreaking to see what is happening in Haiti. Hopefully the money from Everybody Hurts will help the people of Haiti rebuild their lives.”
JLS star Ortise Williams, who lost relatives in the quake said: “The tragedy is very close to my heart."We hope to raise as much money as possible. It’s great to be working with such talented artists, all pulling together to make a difference through song.”
Alexandra Burke said: "It’s truly devastating what has happened in Haiti and if I can help in anyway then I will. This song will bring awareness to the suffering of the innocent people of Haiti and help them rebuild their lives and homes. When these natural disasters occur, we have to work together to make a difference. Please support us"
Rod Stewart said: I can’t think of a more fitting song than ‘Everybody Hurts’ to convey the unimaginable tragedy that is Haiti. I hope the record sales raise a lot of money because the country certainly needs it.
James Morrison said: “I’m so proud and honoured to be part of something so huge, which can hopefully go some way towards helping the poor people who are suffering in Haiti.
Joe Mcelderry said: "It’s an honour to be apart of the Haiti charity single. It’s truly devastating what has happened over there and I want to do anything I can to help and raise money. It’s great to be apart of such an amazing line up who have all taken time out of their schedule to help with this tragic cause"
Susan Boyle said: "The Haiti earthquake has caused devastation and suffering that most of us will never experience nor could imagine. I feel privileged to be a part of such a wonderful project that will raise money to help the country."
Disasters Emergency Committee, Chief Executive Brendan Gormley said: “We are absolutely delighted to help those recording, producing and buying this charity single make a difference in Haiti. More and more water, food, household items and medical supplies are getting through to the earthquake survivors. Buying the charity single will greatly aid our work and help us work with survivors in Haiti to rebuild new lives from the ruins.”
Simon Cowell who is organizing the recording and release of the record for Haiti said: “We have a short time to do this but already we are getting some fantastic support. Right now this is an absolute priority for us all, the people of Haiti need as much help as we can give them as soon as possible, every day the situation becomes more desperate”
Bon Jovi will close the World Stage on June 4, 2010 - the first day of Rock in Rio - Madrid. La Banda de Jersey, which has operated in Madrid since 2003, will present this a one of a kind concert in Spain this summer.
Bon Jovi has been gearing up to kick off their much anticipated Circle Tour in February, which is sure to give fans across the globe an experience like no other.
Rock in Rio - Madrid is particularly thrilled to welcome back Bon Jovi for this performance. Bon Jovi last appeared at this world renown music festival in 2008 at Rock in Rio - Lisbon where over 74 thousand adoring fans sang along to some of the most memorable and iconic rock songs in the world.
The world’s biggest rock band are back!
“Who’s going to save you when the stars fall out the sky
Who’s going to pull you in when the tide gets too high
Who’s going to hold you when you turn out the lights
I won’t lie, I wish that I could be your Superman tonight.”
After an incredible 2009 and the massive worldwide smash of Bon Jovi’s eleventh studio album ‘The Circle’, the band are kicking off 2010 with another anthemic Bon Jovi trademark song, ‘Superman Tonight’.
Written from the heart, it sounds like a track that will fit in seamlessly alongside the Bon Jovi classics. ‘Superman Tonight’ is the 2nd single and a stand out track to be released from ‘The Circle’.
The new single has just been added to the B –List on BBC Radio 2 and Absolute Radio, and will be released digitally on 25th January.
The band are back in the UK with the greatest live show in rock for their O2 residency in June, part of a two year mammoth trip around the globe.
Bon Jovi has set the standard for more than two decades as one of the most successful rock bands ever. Globally, the multi-Grammy Award-winning group has sold more than 120 million albums and performed more than 2,600 concerts in over 50 countries for more than 34 million fans.
Bon Jovi’s previous album Lost Highway debuted at #1 in the U.S. and around the world. The resulting “Lost Highway World Tour” – which famously came to a close with an historic free concert in New York City’s Central Park and two sold-out nights at Madison Square Garden – was ranked as 2008’s #1 top-selling tour around the world according to Billboard and Pollstar.
