The Bon Jovi Experience, the Jon Bon Jovi-endorsed tribute show from London's West End, returns for its 33rd year with hits like 'Livin' On a Prayer'.
The Bon Jovi Experience is back at Victoria Hall on Thursday 20 May 2027, starting at 7:30pm. It's a tribute to Bon Jovi, and it arrives direct from London's West End. This is the show's 33rd year, making it one of the longest-running tribute acts in the UK.
Frontman Tony Pearce leads the night, backed by a live band. Together they recreate the band's stadium-rock heyday, and the setlist pulls from the big hits: 'Livin' On a Prayer', 'Always', 'It's My Life', 'You Give Love a Bad Name' and 'Bad Medicine'. It's the kind of set that leans on the songs most people know by heart, so it's easy to sing along if that's your thing.
There's a bit of a claim to fame here, too. The show is billed as the only Bon Jovi tribute endorsed by Jon Bon Jovi himself, and he's given it his praise. Chad Kroeger of Nickelback once put Pearce's resemblance in plain terms: 'He looks so much like Jon Bon Jovi, it's freaky man!'
