Bon Jovi are calling out to all UK bands to enter their opening act competition!
Bon Jovi are calling out to all UK bands to enter their opening act competition!

AEG Live in conjunction with goNORTH are giving new bands a once in a life time opportunity to make their dreams come true opening for Bon Jovi in front of tens of thousands of cheering fans at The O2 Arena!

To enter the competition, all you have to do is submit a video of your band playing live to www.openforbonjovi.com and you could be opening for one of the biggest rock bands in the world*.

Richie Sambora says, "If you want to open one of our O2 shows and think you've got the chops to win - upload a track via www.openforbonjovi.com and we'll be seeing you on tour!"

A blue ribbon panel from Bon Jovi management, goNORTH and AEG Live will pick the ultimate winners. Five emerging UK bands will win an opening slot to perform approximately 30 minutes of original music on the following nights: 7th, 8th, 10th, 11th and 13th June.

Bon Jovi has also announced special guests for a selection of O2 concerts.

One Republic on 17th, 19th and 20th June and Kid Rock on 22nd, 23rd, 25th and 26th June.
The band's 11th studio album, The Circle, debuted at #1 in numerous countries including the U.S., Canada, Germany and Japan, with Top 5 debuts throughout Europe and the UK.

Globally, the band has sold more than 120 million albums, and performed more than 2,600 concerts in over 50 countries for more than 34 million fans. Bon Jovi's previous run, the hugely successful 2008 "Lost Highway Tour," was Billboard's top-grossing tour of the year.

* Terms & Conditions - $500 will be offered to cover travel and expenses to the winning bands.
