Journey remain one of the most enduring arena acts in American rock. The band are continuing their extensive Freedom Tour run with North American arena and amphitheater dates stretching across 2025 and into 2026, keeping their classic catalog in front of U.S. fans.

Freedom Tour keeps rolling

Journey launched the Freedom Tour cycle in early 2022 in support of their album Freedom, playing major U.S. arenas with Toto as a frequent special guest and rotating support acts across the run.

The tour has since evolved into a rolling multi-year itinerary, with the band routing through key American markets such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas and Atlanta, and adding Canadian stops including Toronto and Vancouver along the way.

U.S. arenas and amphitheaters

For the 2025 and 2026 legs, Journey focus on a mix of classic indoor arenas and large outdoor amphitheaters, a format that suits their radio-ready rock anthems and the cross-generational audience that still turns out for Don’t Stop Believin’ and Faithfully.

Tickets are typically sold through primary outlets like Ticketmaster and venue box offices, with demand driven by the band’s long list of familiar hits and the draw of original guitarist Neal Schon and longtime keyboardist Jonathan Cain onstage.
