The 65-year-old Canadian rock legend returns to Regina’s Brandt Centre on Sept. 28 as part of a 40-date arena tour in support of his 17th studio album, Roll With The Punches, which launches later this year.

A news release from promoter Live Nation describes it as his “biggest tour in years.”

“I’m so thrilled to be announcing the North American leg of the Roll With The Punches Tour,” Adams said in the release. “We’ll be playing all the classics, some deep cuts, and sharing some brand-new tracks from the forthcoming album.”

The North American tour, preceded by more than 50 overseas dates, begins Sept. 11 in Kamloops and includes 19 Canadian cities before moving across the 49th parallel for 21 shows, most of which are in major U.S. markets.

Adams’ visit to Regina — with special guests The Sheepdogs from Saskatoon — marks the lone Saskatchewan stop on the tour. He last performed at the Brandt Centre in fall of 2022 after a hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Adams is one of the most-recognized musicians on the planet and among the top-selling rock artists of all time. The platinum-selling singer is known for countless hit songs including: Run To You, Summer of ’69, Cuts Like A Knife, I do It For You, Somebody, One Night Love Affair, Heaven, All for Love, Can’t Stop This Thing We Started, and 18 Til I Die.

He has been named an Officer of the Order of Canada along with inductions into the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Canada’s Walk of Fame, the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Broadcast Hall of Fame.

Adams also received one of Canada’s highest honours, the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award, for his contributions to the arts. More recently, he was inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame and nominated for the 2025 international Songwriters Hall of Fame.
