Courtesy of Live NationAfter celebrating its 40th anniversary this year with a massive touring schedule, Foreigner will hit the road again in 2018 for an expansive new U.S. trek also featuring Whitesnake and Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Evening.  The Jukebox Hero Tour gets underway on June 15 in Bangor, Maine, and is currently mapped out through an August 1 concert in Irvine, California.

So far, 29 dates have been confirmed, but more shows are expected to be added.

Tickets for the trek will go on sale to the general public this Friday, December 8, at 10 a.m. local time via Live Nation. Pre-sale tickets will be available to Citi card members starting Tuesday, December 5, at 10 a.m. local time through Citi’s Private Pass program. Visit CitiPrivatePass.com for more information.

“I’m excited to join forces with my fellow U.K. countrymen, [Whitesnake’s] David Coverdale and Jason Bonham, for what’s sure to be a rockin’ summer tour in the States,” says founding Foreigner lead guitarist songwriter Mick Jones.

Coverdale adds, “We are truly excited and looking forward to playing in 2018 with our friends, Foreigner and Jason Bonham, on their North American tour.”

Meanwhile, Foreigner singer Kelly Hansen is featured in a hilarious holiday-themed promo video for the trek in which he and a group of carolers show up at a series of homes and belt out classic tunes by his band.
