Bon Jovi will again headline the annual Tiger Jam concert in Las Vegas, which takes place May 26 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center. Tickets will hit the box office Saturday (3/24), according to a press release.

"I am thrilled to mark 10 years of Tiger Jam with Bon Jovi," golfer/event-founder Tiger Woods said in a statement. "We always welcome rock legends at Tiger Jam and having Bon Jovi headline is truly an honor. We have a lot to celebrate, so I know it will be an amazing night.

Tickets will be available through the venue's website, as well as via Ticketmaster.com. (Ticketmaster is LiveDaily's parent company.) Proceeds benefit the Tiger Woods Foundation, "an organization dedicated to empowering young people to reach their maximum potential," according to organizers. In the past, the group has redirected Tiger Jam funds to Child Haven, Center for Independent Living, Greater Las Vegas Inner City Games, Boys & Girls Club of Las Vegas, Grammy in the Schools, and The VH1 Save the Music Foundation.
