Avril Lavigne, the queen of early-2000s angst and side bangs, is stretching her Greatest Hits Tour well into 2025! Apparently, she’s decided it’s way more fun to live out of a tour bus than settle down with her Netflix queue.
Starting May 18 in Moncton, New Brunswick (yes, Canadians, you still have dibs on Avril), she’ll be zigzagging across North America, hitting up cities like Halifax, New York, Jacksonville, and even Hershey, Pennsylvania. Because nothing says “Sk8er Boi” nostalgia like a chocolate-scented concert, amirite? She’ll wrap things up on June 27 in Bethel, NY.
And get this—Avril’s not just doing the usual stadiums. She’s taking on Madison Square Garden in New York and Hersheypark Stadium in Pennsylvania. Imagine singing “Complicated” while surrounded by roller coasters and chocolate bars. It’s peak millennial fantasy.
Friends, Frenemies, and Fellow Rockers
Joining Avril on this epic throwback adventure? None other than Simple Plan for the U.S. leg. Yes, the kings of “I’m Just a Kid” are here to remind you of your middle school tears. For Canadian stops, Avril’s bringing Fefe Dobson, Canada’s other early-2000s music darling. And just for fun, We The Kings will pop in on select dates, because why not sprinkle in a little “Check Yes Juliet” while we’re reliving our youth?
The Setlist of Your Dreams
Get ready to scream-sing “Complicated,” “Sk8er Boi,” “Girlfriend,” and other Avril classics until your voice gives out. She might even sneak in some deep cuts for the real fans—fingers crossed for “Nobody’s Home” to fully complete our emotional breakdown.
Tickets, VIPs, and Other Fancy Stuff
Tickets go on sale December 3 for those in-the-know fans who still subscribe to Avril’s newsletter (or maybe just follow her on Instagram). For everyone else, the general sale begins December 6.
And if you’re feeling bougie, there are VIP packages available. These include premium tickets, access to the pre-show I’m With You hospitality lounge (fancy snacks and awkward mingling, probably), exclusive merch, and other goodies. Basically, you get to pretend you’re Avril’s BFF for a night.
