Avenged Sevenfold and Good Charlotte will team up next summer for a rare North American Tour that reunites two hugely influential bands whose friendship and musical connection stretch back decades. Each helped shape their own corner of rock, and this long-awaited run celebrates the shared history and mutual respect that have linked them since their early days.
Promoted by Live Nation, the 16-city tour kicks off July 25 in Ridgedale, MO, and hits Shakopee, Chicago, St. Louis, Detroit, Toronto, Montreal, New York, Boston, Charlotte, Dallas, and more before wrapping August 27 at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre in Phoenix, AZ.
For Avenged Sevenfold, the tour follows the release of their new single, “Magic,” which dropped December 6, 2025. The band premiered the track in the latest season of Call of Duty BO7 and released it independently, continuing their forward-thinking creative approach. Fans can check out the new song along with a 360 VR music video and a handwritten-lyric video from M. Shadows. A7X also reunited with celebrated fine artist Wes Lang for the single artwork. “Magic” marks their first new music since 2023’s acclaimed “Life Is But A Dream…,” a project that reinforced the band’s reputation for innovation, ambition, and explosive live shows.
Good Charlotte enter the tour riding the success of “Motel Du Cap,” their first album in seven years. Released in August, the record earned widespread praise, with Rolling Stone highlighting its “unrelenting energy” and PAPER calling the band “one of the most influential career acts of the 21st century.” The group showcased the new material across major TV appearances, including Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and Good Morning America. The upcoming trek marks Good Charlotte’s first North American tour since 2018.
