Bryan Adams is the latest artist added to the upcoming Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.
He joins a previously announced list of performers and presenters that include Heart’s Nancy Wilson, Aerosmith’s Joe Perry, Fleetwood Mac‘s Mick Fleetwood, Elton John, Tedeschi Trucks Band, David Letterman, Brandi Carlile and more.
While the Rock Hall hasn’t revealed who Adams will be honoring during the festivities, he does have a connection to this year’s inductee Joe Cocker. Adams co-wrote the song “When the Night Comes” with Jim Vallance and Diane Warren, which became a hit for Cocker.
This year’s other inductees include Bad Company, Cyndi Lauper, The White Stripes, Soundgarden, Salt-N-Pepa, Chubby Checker and Outkast. In addition, Warren Zevon is being inducted in the Musical Influence category, while producer Thom Bell, pianist/organist Nicky Hopkins and bassist Carole Kaye will be inducted for Musical Excellence.
The 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony will be held Nov. 8 in Los Angeles and will stream live on Disney+ starting at 8 p.m. ET. ABC will also air a highlights special on Jan. 1, 2026, at 8 p.m. ET.
