Venue: Grand Arena, GrandWest, Cape Town

Global rock icon Bryan Adams returns to South Africa with the highly anticipated “Roll with the Punches Tour,” a powerhouse live experience that celebrates four decades of chart-topping hits and his latest era of resilient rock and roll. Presented by Big Concerts, this is set to be one of the most electrifying live events of 2026.

The Tour

Named after his latest studio project, the Roll with the Punches tour embodies the spirit of getting back up, no matter the challenge. While the show features fresh, high-energy tracks from the new album—such as the title track “Roll with the Punches” and singles like “Make Up Your Mind”—it is anchored by the timeless anthems that have defined generations.

Fans in the Mother City can expect to be taken on a journey through Adams’ extraordinary catalogue, singing along to cornerstones of rock music, including:

• The stadium classics: “Summer of ’69,” “Run to You,” and “Cuts Like a Knife.”
• The legendary ballads: “(Everything I Do) I Do It for You,” “Heaven,” and “Please Forgive Me.”

The Bryan Adams Experience

Adams has built a reputation as one of the world’s most enduring and captivating live performers, touring relentlessly for nearly four decades. His shows are characterized by a raw, gravelly vocal performance, his signature Telecaster guitar in hand, and a tight, world-class band that delivers two hours of non-stop, honest rock music.

This event is more than just a concert; it’s a chance to witness a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and an artist whose music has achieved #1 status in over 40 countries, proving that great rock music is truly timeless.
