Aerosmith to Play Hollywood Bowl in October and November

Aerosmith will return to the stage with two concerts at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on October 29 and November 1. Titled California, Dream On: Aerosmith & Friends, the concerts will include guest appearances alongside band members from The Black Crowes, Run-D.M.C., Heart, and Slash. Don Was will serve as music director for the event, and promoter Blackbird Presents announced that the artist lineups for each night will be different.

In June, Joe Perry stated to SPIN that they had not seen the last performance of Aerosmith yet. Steven Tyler and Joe Perry released a joint EP titled One More Time with Yungblud last November. Tyler also performed in July 2025 at Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath's farewell concert as well as at the Janie's Fund event at the Hollywood Palladium.
