Avenged Sevenfold and Good Charlotte will join together next summer for a North American Tour, marking a rare moment that unites two massively influential bands with deep roots and friendship spanning decades. While both acts have helped define their respective corners of rock music, this upcoming run celebrates the shared history, mutual respect, and musical connection that has woven the two together since their earliest days.
Promoted by Live Nation, the 16-city tour kicks off July 25 in Ridgedale, MO, with additional stops in 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, this run follows the release of their new song, “Magic”, streaming everywhere as of December 6, 2025. A7X debuted the song in the recent season of Call of Duty BO7 last week, and released the track fully independently, continuing the ambition of the band’s current work. Listen to the new song, watch the 360 VR music video, and enjoy the lyric video with handwritten lyrics from M. Shadows HERE. The band once again partnered with the incredible world renowned fine artist Wes Lang for the single artwork. “Magic” is the first new release since the critically acclaimed 2023 album, Life Is But A Dream…—a boundary-pushing project that further cemented the band’s reputation for reinvention, ambition, and incredible live performances. Known for their visionary integration of technology, fan-forward ticketing models, and large-scale creative production, the band continues to evolve how they engage fans both on and off the stage.
Multi-platinum rock superstars Good Charlotte made a triumphant return in August with the release of Motel Du Cap, their first new album in seven years. Met with widespread acclaim, Rolling Stone marveled at “the unrelenting energy” of the record, while PAPER raved, “Good Charlotte has established that they’re here to stay as one of the most influential career acts of the 21st century.” The band brought songs from the album to life with a full slate of national television performances on Jimmy Kimmel LIVE!, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and Good Morning America. Next year’s much anticipated trek marks the band’s first North American tour since 2018.

The band (comprising of M. Shadows, Synyster Gates, Zacky Vengeance, Johnny Christ and Brooks Wackerman) are equally known for their spectacular live shows, selling out arenas and headlining the world’s most prestigious festivals as well as always being at the forefront of rapidly changing technology, cultural mile markers, and new ways for communities to engage.
Good Charlotte is back, and they’re bringing their rawest, most authentic energy yet. The rock superstars—twin brothers Joel Madden (vocals) and Benji Madden (guitar, vocals), alongside Paul Thomas (bass) and Billy Martin (guitar, keyboards)—have spent nearly three decades crafting anthems for the underdogs, the dreamers, and the broken.
From their humble beginnings in Waldorf, Maryland, to selling over 11 million albums worldwide with hits like “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” and “The Anthem,” Good Charlotte has always worn their hearts on their sleeves. With over 2.3 billion streams to date, 12 RIAA Certified multi-platinum, platinum, and gold releases, 6 Top 10 Alt Radio Singles, and 4 Top 20 Singles on the Billboard Hot 100, Good Charlotte remains a dynamic force in music with a legacy of evolution, authenticity, and lasting influence. Their latest album, Motel Du Cap, isn’t just an album—it’s a testament to a band that’s never stopped growing and never stopped believing in the power of a good song.
