It’s gonna be epic! We’re also inviting ourvery good friends 3OH!3, Bowling for Soup and LØLØ along for the ride! We have played with these amazing artists many times all over the world and they always put on a sick show. This is such a stacked line-up, we promise you’ll be singing your heart out to every song, from beginning to end!
It's gonna be BIG, we hope to see you there!”

ABOUT SIMPLE PLAN
For more than two decades, SIMPLEPLAN has been one of the most culturally and commercially successful bands in rock. Their multi-platinum 2002 debut album, No Pads, No Helmets… Just Balls bore the smash singles “I’d Do Anything,” “I’m Just A Kid,” “Addicted” and “Perfect,” while subsequent hits “Welcome To My Life,” “Summer Paradise,” “Untitled (How Could This Happen ToMe?),” “Shut Up!” and “What’s New Scooby-Doo?” have cemented their legacy as pop-punk legends. In all, the Montreal-formed quartet has sold over 10 million albums worldwide, captivated the main stages of the Vans Warped Tour and When We Were Young, performed at the 2010 Winter Olympics and with the Montreal Symphony Orchestra, sold out shows around the world and raised more than $3 million through the Simple Plan Foundation. Their videos have garnered more than a billion YouTube views, while their inescapable social media presence driven another billion views on the viral #ImJustAKid Challenge alongside videos from *NSYNC, Ed Sheeran, and Venus and Serena Williams. In 2025, they’ll celebrate their landmark 25th anniversary with their biggest year yet, anchored by a career-spanning documentary on Amazon Prime Video, worldwide amphitheaterand arena tours with Avril Lavigne and The Offspring and their most ambitious headlining trek in 20 years, the Bigger Than You Think! tour.
ABOUT BOWLING FOR SOUP
Bowling For Soup have spent the last 30 years proving they’re one of the most fun, engaging, and downright entertaining live bands in pop punk. Formed in Wichita Falls, TX, in 1994 and later relocating to Denton, BFS built their career on infectious anthems like “Girl All The Bad Guys Want,”“1985,” and “High School Never Ends,” along with theme songs for Jimmy Neutron and Phineas and Ferb. Their mix of massive sing alongs, off-the-cuff comedy, and undeniable energy has made them a fan favorite across multiple generations,with parents now bringing their kids to join the party. Even after three decades, BFS show no signs of slowing down. In 2024, they marked their 30th anniversary with sold-out tours across the U.S., U.K., andAustralia, celebrating 20 years of A Hangover You Don’t Deserve. Though longtime guitarist Chris Burney retired in early 2025, Jaret Reddick, GaryWiseman, and Rob Felicetti continue to bring their signature chaos to thestage, headlining Wembley Arena in December 2025. With a new live acoustic album, a pop-punk covers record, and more music on the way, Bowling For Soup remain pop punk legends, keeping the good times rolling.
ABOUT 3OH!3
3OH!3 stands for 303, the telephone code for Boulder, Colorado,which happens to be the number-one question Nathaniel Motte and Sean Foremanget asked in interviews... well, that and, "how tall are you?!"(they're 6'8" and 6'1", incidentally). So now that that’s out of the way we can get to the juicer details of this mountain-raised, finely-aging boyband. 3OH!3 continue to tour all over the world, and HELL YES, they will still play all your favorite hits off of their first album WANT so your “middle school self” can truly live. They've played shows on every continent except for Antarctica (too cold). 3OH!3 are still hard at work writing and producing music. Their recent releases include the singles "Lonely Machines feat 100 Gecs"and "I'm So Sad" off their album NEED. Nat and Sean also write and produce songs for other artists including Maroon 5, BTS, Kesha, Illenium,Ariana Grande, Lil Jon, Black Bear, and MAX, to name a few. These pioneers ofthe early aughts party scene can teach you how to party - just come see your favorite Boulder Boyz in a city near you sometime soon. Or just stream "Don’t Trust Me" "My First Kiss"and "Starstrukk" on endless repeat - either way, they've got nothing but love for you and yours.
