Big Tour For Simple Plan

Twenty-five years in the making, multi-Platinum rock band Simple Plan is hitting the road this summer across the U.S. with their Bigger Than You Think! Tour.

Produced by Live Nation, the 19-city romp kicks off Aug. 9 at WAMU Theater in Seattle, WA, making stops in cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, Atlanta and Houston before wrapping up Sept. 6 in Irving, TX at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory.   

Chuck Comeau of Simple Plan shared: “It’s hard to believe, but these will be our first proper U.S. headline shows in more than eight years and the timing couldn’t be better as we celebrate our 25th anniversary as a band. To mark this very special milestone of 25 years of Simple Plan, we will be putting on the biggest shows of our lives, playing everything from our biggest hits to songs we haven’t performed in years, and bringing the most elaborate stage production we’ve ever had.”

The tour will feature special guests 3OH!3, which stands for Boulder, CO’s area code, and pop, punk Bowling for Soup on all dates, with rising pop-rock artist LØLØ opening each show.

“We’re also inviting our very good friends 3OH!3, Bowling for Soup and LØLØ along for the ride,” Comeau continued. “We have played with these amazing artists many times all over the world and they always put on a sick show.”

Simple Plan, known for their anthemic hits like “Welcome to My Life,” “Perfect” and “I’m Just a Kid,” continues to entertain with the signature blend of pop-punk energy and heartfelt lyrics. The tour follows their latest album, Harder Than It Looks. The group’s Amazon Prime documentary will be coming later this summer.

Tickets are available starting today with a Citi presale leading  up to the general on-sale Friday, Feb. 28 at 10:00 AM local. Simple Plan will also offer a variety of different VIP experiences for fans. Experiences vary but include meet and greets, selfie and photo opportunities with the band and VIP laminates (all are ticketless upgrades).

Simple Plan will donate $1 from each ticket sold on this tour to the Simple Plan Foundation, which was established in 2005 to inspire young people through music. Since its inception the Simple Plan Foundation has donated more than $2 million to various charitable causes in Canada.
