Good Charlotte & Avenged Sevenfold Announce Epic 2026 North American Tour

Good Charlotte is back on the road in a massive way. The pop-punk legends are joining forces with heavy metal titans Avenged Sevenfold for an incredible co-headlining North American tour in Summer 2026. This 16-city arena trek kicks off July 25, 2026 in Ridgedale, Missouri and wraps up August 27, 2026 in Phoenix, Arizona—marking Good Charlotte's first North American tour since 2018.

This tour represents a triumphant return for Good Charlotte, who released their critically acclaimed eighth studio album Motel Du Cap in August 2025—their first new record in seven years. The album marked a full-fledged comeback for the Waldorf, Maryland natives, earning widespread praise with Rolling Stone highlighting its "unrelenting energy" and Paper calling Good Charlotte "one of the most influential career acts of the 21st century."

Two Legendary Bands, One Historic Tour

The pairing of Good Charlotte and Avenged Sevenfold isn't coincidental—these bands share deep roots and friendship spanning decades. Back in 2007, Avenged Sevenfold's M. Shadows and Synyster Gates made guest appearances on Good Charlotte's single "The River." Now, nearly two decades later, these two influential acts are uniting for what promises to be one of the most anticipated tours of 2026.

From Waldorf to Worldwide Stardom

Since forming in 1996, Good Charlotte—fronted by brothers Joel and Benji Madden—has become one of the defining acts of the pop-punk and emo movements. With anthems like "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous," "The Anthem," "I Just Wanna Live," and "Girls & Boys," the band has sold over 11 million albums worldwide and amassed more than 2.3 billion streams. Their catalog includes 12 RIAA-certified multi-platinum, platinum, and gold releases.
