The legendary artist last appeared in Gqeberha in January 2014 as part of his Bare Bones World Tour, treating audiences across the country to a handful of stripped-down acoustic concerts in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, and Durban.
Fans in Algoa FM Country will have to travel to see him this time around.
Over the years, Bryan Adams has won countless awards and accolades for his music, including 20 Juno Awards (the Canadian equivalent of the Grammy Awards), a Grammy Award, and a star on Canada's Walk of Fame. He has also been inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
