These shows continue the touring cycle behind their 2022 studio album Freedom, with current vocalist Arnel Pineda fronting the lineup built around founding guitarist Neal Schon and longtime keyboardist Jonathan Cain. Rock band Toto are billed as special guests or openers on many of the arena dates.

The band’s itinerary typically concentrates on North America in the first quarter, followed by festival and arena appearances abroad later in the year, giving fans on both sides of the Atlantic a chance to hear hits like Don’t Stop Believin’ and Any Way You Want It live.
