Prepare for the Ultimate Pop-Punk-storm: Simple Plan Announces Epic 2024 UK and European Headline Tour!
The Canadian pop-punk lads upcoming ‘Hard As Rock’ tour will see them hit the road with State Champs and Mayday Parade kicking things off in Paris on January 19, and wrapping up in London on February 16 – and they’ll be donating $1 from every ticket sold to their Simple Plan Foundation, which ‘focuses on helping young people in need and showcasing the power of music as a tool to find purpose and direction in life’
“We’re super excited to be coming back to Europe and the UK early next year!” enthuses Simple Plan drummer Chuck Comeau. “After an amazing arena tour with our good friends Sum 41 last fall and some incredible festival shows this spring, we’re thrilled to come back on our own headlining tour, playing full shows for our UK and Euro fans all over the continent.
“It’s gonna be great to play a bunch of new songs from our latest album ‘Harder Than it Looks’ as well as all the fans’ favourites from our early records. We might even throw in a few jams we rarely play live to celebrate, as 2024 marks the 25th anniversary of the band and the 20th anniversary of our second album, ‘Still Not Getting An’y!
“We’re stoked to bring our friends State Champs and Mayday Parade with us. Two fantastic bands that we and our fans love! This is probably one of the strongest UK / European tour line-up we’ve ever put together and we can’t wait for it to kick off next year!”
