Rock legends Journey will close out 2021 with a Las Vegas residency and will then embark on a 40-date North American headlining run next year, with Billy Idol serving as the special guest on half the trek before Toto will take over in that spot to close everything out.

"It's that time — time to get back to where we are used to being — onstage! We are looking forward to shifting into high gear and bringing you the best show possible. The band is running on all 12 cylinders and very excited! Please come and join us once again for an evening full of rocking stage connection fun. See you soon, friends," said Journey guitarist Neal Schon about the upcoming "Freedom Tour."

Billy Idol added, "Touring next year with Journey is going to be great fun! An epic night you won’t want to miss. I’m excited to get back to so many wonderful cities and I’m bringing Steve Stevens and the rest of the Billy Idol band with me!"

"On behalf of myself and the band, we are very honored and excited to do this tour with our old and dear friends Journey. Gonna be a great night of music, and as all the guys are lifelong friends... a blast off stage as well," commented Toto's Steve Lukather.

Look for tickets to go on sale on Nov. 19 at 10AM at Journey's website. See the complete list of stops, which spans from Feb. 22 through May 11, below.

For Journey, the long-awaited return to the road helps fulfill the desire laid out in "The Way We Used to Be," the band's newest single that reflected on the difficult times everyone has endured amid the ongoing pandemic.
