Bryan Adams Brings Roll With the Punches Tour Across Canada
A Cross-Canada Homecoming Brings Four Decades of Rock Hits Back to Canadian Stages
Canadian rock icon Bryan Adams is bringing his Roll With the Punches Tour home this summer, with a run of Canadian concerts stretching from Quebec to British Columbia.
The Canadian leg begins on August 24, 2026, in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, before travelling through Ontario and continuing west. The tour includes an August 26, 2026, concert at Tribute Communities Centre in Oshawa, along with stops in Hamilton, London, Sudbury and several other Canadian cities.
The tour supports Adams’ 16th studio album, Roll With the Punches, his first full album of new material released through his own independent label, Bad Records.
Bryan Adams Takes Roll With the Punches Across Canada
The Canadian tour follows an extensive run of U.S. dates and gives fans across the country another opportunity to experience Adams live.
The journey begins at Amphithéâtre Cogeco in Trois-Rivières. From there, Adams travels to Kingston and Oshawa before visiting Hamilton, London and Sudbury.
The tour then moves through Northern Ontario and into Western Canada. Stops include Saskatoon, Lethbridge, Red Deer, Dawson Creek, Penticton and Abbotsford. The final Canadian date is scheduled for September 15, 2026, at Rogers Forum in Abbotsford.
Lights Joins the Canadian Tour
Adams will have another Canadian favourite joining him on the road.
Lights will appear as the special guest on the Canadian Roll With the Punches dates, with the exception of the Thunder Bay performances. The Juno Award-winning artist has built a career around an evolving sound that crosses pop, electronic and alternative music.
Pairing the two artists brings together distinctly different generations and styles of Canadian music.
For audiences arriving early, it also means the opening performance is much more than a warm-up act.
Thunder Bay Gets Something Different
Fans in Thunder Bay will experience a different side of Adams.
Instead of the full Roll With the Punches production, Adams will perform his Bare Bones acoustic show at Thunder Bay Community Auditorium on September 2 and September 3, 2026.
The format strips the music back and places greater emphasis on the songs themselves. It provides a notable contrast to the arena-sized production audiences will experience elsewhere on the Canadian run.
New Music Meets a Catalogue of Canadian Classics
The tour takes its name from Adams’ latest studio album, Roll With the Punches. Released through Bad Records, the album mixes rock songs with ballads and includes tracks such as “A Little More Understanding,” “Make Up Your Mind” and “Never Ever Let You Go.”
Of course, new music is only part of the attraction.
Adams has built one of Canada’s most internationally recognised rock catalogues. His decades of hits give the current tour an opportunity to connect new material with songs that have become fixtures of Canadian rock.
