Journey, the rock band known for classic hits such as “Any Way You Want It” and “Don’t Stop Believin',” is set to conclude more than 50 years on the road with a special farewell tour next year.

On Thursday, the group announced 60 concert dates for its upcoming Final Frontier Tour, which will feature stops across the United States and Canada.

The first leg of the tour begins in Hershey, Pennsylvania, on Feb. 28, 2026. With shows running through July, other major cities include Memphis, Tennessee; New Orleans, Louisiana; Austin, Texas; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Salt Lake City, Utah; Tampa, Florida; and Buffalo, New York.

Formed in San Francisco in 1973, Journey released its debut self-titled record in 1975. The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers have put out more than a dozen studio albums since then, selling over 100 million records to date.

Neal Schon—Journey’s last-remaining founding member and lead guitarist—said in a statement that the band would be “pulling out all the stops” for its last hurrah.

“This tour is our heartfelt thank you to the fans who’ve been with us every step of the way, through every song, every era, every high and low,” Schon said.

Other band members include lead vocalist Arnel Pineda, keyboardists Jonathan Cain and Jason Derlatka, drummer Deen Castronovo, and bassist Todd Jensen.

Schon noted that Final Frontier would serve as “a full-circle celebration” of the band’s greatest hits.

“While this marks a farewell to one powerful chapter of the Journey we’ve shared, I want everyone to know I’m not done,” he continued. “Music is still burning strong inside me, and there are new creative horizons ahead. This tour is both a thank you and the beginning of what’s next.”

It’s unclear whether or not Schon intends to release music under the Journey moniker moving forward, after announcing last month that Cain—who joined the band in 1980—was the only member retiring.

“Jonathan Cain announced his farewell to Journey tonight,” Schon wrote in an X post on Oct. 9. “I’m nowhere near done! Journey has so much more life ahead!”

Schon—who has had a contentious relationship with Cain, quarreling over differing political views and lawsuits about band finances—clarified his comments the following day, noting that the keyboardist would be joining Journey for the band’s farewell tour.

“We will be touring with Jon all through 26-27, celebrating the music we’ve created,” he wrote alongside a video of Cain discussing his plans for the future, which include focusing on his work as a minister and worship leader.

“It’s been an incredible ride,” Cain said in a statement ahead of the farewell tour.

“We’ve shared our music with millions, and this tour is about gratitude, connection, and one last chance to feel that magic together. We wouldn’t want it any other way.”
