Special Guests: Simple Plan
Wednesday 7th May 2025 @ Rod Laver Arena
Once was not enough for punk rock icons THE OFFSPRING! Fresh off the release of their brand new album SUPERCHARGED and their earth-shattering one-off performance in Melbourne last night, the legendary five-piece have officially supercharged their 2025 plans, today announcing their return down under next May for the The Offspring: SUPERCHARGED Worldwide in '25 Australia tour with SIMPLE PLAN.
A jam-packed arena spectacular from two of the greats, with both THE OFFSPRING and SIMPLE PLAN set to unleash a mountain of hits from across their storied catalogues! The Offspring: SUPERCHARGED Worldwide in '25 Aussie tour will kick off on Sunday 4 May in Adelaide, heading onto Melbourne and Sydney, and closing out on Wednesday 14 May in Brisbane.
Forming in the mid-80s in Garden Grove, California, THE OFFSPRING ultimately became a cultural juggernaut; a band acknowledged as one of the driving forces behind catapulting punk rock into the mainstream in the 1990s, and also regarded as one of the best-selling acts of all time. From their 1989 self-titled debut album which set the scene for the group's high-octane wiles and infectious melodies, THE OFFSPRING have since unveiled eleven studio albums, with multiple platinum certifications along the way. The band have repeatedly burned up airwaves across the globe while selling over 40 millions records worldwide and are two time members of the Spotify Billions Club (You’re Gonna Go Far Kid / The Kids Aren’t Alright).
A creative tornado of relentless fun and inventive takes on hardcore, skate and pop punk in their broader punk stratosphere, THE OFFSPRING's ability to translate their frenetic energy into a live setting is second to none. Boasting an abundance of hits and deeper fan-favourite cuts throughout their catalogue, spanning the sharpened angst of The Kids Aren't Alright, the fast-paced and uplifting You're Gonna Go Far, Kid, the anthemic rawness of Self Esteem or, more recently, the frenetic spark of tracks like Light It Up and Make It All Right, THE OFFSPRING remain at the top of their game decades later, colliding the past, present and future of punk rock into a palatable, memorable and insanely enjoyable adventure that shows zero signs of slowing down.
Between selling over 10 million albums worldwide, taking out multiple awards, dominating MTV in its golden era and also recently spawning their own TikTok viral challenge, multi-platinum Canadian rockers SIMPLE PLAN have remained an indelible part of pop culture for over two decades. Forming in Montreal in 1999, SIMPLE PLAN have retained a rare artist-audience dynamic that has only strengthened over time, with the band also actively releasing new music throughout their 20+ years in existence.
From their debut 2002 full-length, No Pads, No Helmets...Just Balls through to their most recent record, the self-released 2022 album Harder Than It Looks, SIMPLE PLAN's legacy continues to affirm as does their show-stopping live performances which has seen them tick off festival sets across the globe, tours with Blink-182, Green Day and Avril Lavigne, and, most recently down under, an entirely sold out eight show run in April that squarely brought the house down night after night with endless energy and good vibes.
With THE OFFSPRING's ALWAYS Live intimate one-night-only show in Melbourne selling out in 30 seconds, and SIMPLE PLAN's Australian headline run earlier this year entirely sold out, tickets definitely won't last long for The Offspring: SUPERCHARGED Worldwide in '25 edition down under. Don't miss your chance to Come Out and Play in 2025 with these two rock titans under one roof; Supercharge your 2025!
