Legendary Rock Band Adds 40 More Dates to Massive Farewell Tour

Journey's farewell tour just got a whole lot less final.

The legendary rock band announced 40 additional North American dates for its sprawling Final Frontier farewell tour, extending the run through late November 2026 after what the group described as overwhelming fan response.

The newly added leg kicks off Sept. 12 in Los Angeles and wraps up Nov. 28 in San Francisco, giving Journey one more lengthy victory lap across arenas in the U.S. and Canada.

"The energy has been incredible every night," Journey founder and guitarist Neal Schon said in a statement. "Seeing these crowds sing these songs with us after all these years has been powerful. We're excited to bring The Final Frontier Tour to even more cities this fall."

Unlike many of the band's recent tours, Journey is currently performing without an opening act, allowing the group to stretch its setlist deeper into its catalog. Alongside staples like "Don't Stop Believin'," "Faithfully" and "Any Way You Want It," the band has also been performing fan-favorite deeper cuts including "Chain Reaction," "Suzanne" and "Dead or Alive," along with "Of a Lifetime" from the band's 1975 self-titled debut album.

Frontman Arnel Pineda said audiences have helped make the farewell run feel more like a celebration than a goodbye.

"The fans have been incredible," Pineda said. "Every night feels like a celebration, and we're excited to share that experience with even more cities."

And while the Final Frontier tour is expected to wrap in 2027, one longtime dream still hangs in the air like a lighter raised during a power ballad: a possible appearance from former frontman Steve Perry.

"I wish Steve Perry would make an appearance," Pineda told Rolling Stone earlier this year. "He doesn't even have to sing. He can just take a bow with the guys."
