UPDATED: First look at Simple Plan’s European tour setlist!

Last night, Simple Plan performed their first show of their long-awaited headlining ‘Hard As Rock Tour’ in Europe, which they kicked off in Paris, France, where they managed to sell out 3 shows in a row at the Bataclan venue.

The Simple Plan concert itself was standard length (about hour and half) and before the fans got to enjoy three opening acts: AIR YEL, State Champs and Mayday Parade. In total, the band performed 21 tracks, which you can check out below:

SETLIST (Paris, France / January 18th 2024)
1. I’d Do Anything
2. Shut Up!
3. Jump
4. Jet Lag (French Version)
5. Your Love Is a Lie
6. Addicted
7. You Suck at Love
8. Welcome to My Life
9. Iconic
10. Summer Paradise
11. Take My Hand
12. Astronaut
13. Party medley (All Star / Sk8er Boi / Mr. Brightside)
14. What’s New Scooby Doo?
15. A Million Pictures of You
16. Where I Belong (feat. Derek Discanio from State Champs)

Encore:
17. Wake Me Up (When This Nightmare’s Over)
18. I’m Just a Kid
19. Untitled
20. Cover: Oasis – Wonderwall (shortened)
21. Perfect

The setlist should slightly change every night of the tour (especially possibly during the three Paris shows), so we will keep you updated with any major changes. Most of the setlist’s structure should remain the same, so you can prepare yourself for most of these hits at your show!

UPDATE: Simple Plan did indeed switch things up a little bit on the second night in Paris. Instead of Your Love Is A Lie, they played Can’t Keep My Hands Off You and instead of Wake Me Up, the band performed Congratulations. They also added a French version of What’s New Scooby Doo? feat. Kyoshi Sad. This meant that there was no Oasis cover on the second night.

Check out the second setlist below:

Simple Plan add 3rd supporting act for European tour: AIR YEL

Simple Plan’s European tour titled ‘Hard As Rock tour” will be kicking off in just a week and according to the latest news, the fans can expect a seriously jam-packed night full of music: besides State Champs and Mayday Parade, Simple Plan will be adding a third opening act, who is none other their social media guru AIR YEL (read ‘Ariel’).

AIR YEL has previously toured with Simple Plan as their social media content creator and later on stepped to to also perform as their opening act in Southeast Asia and in Mexico and in all instances she’s performed ‘Jet Lag’ with them live on stage. This gives us a clue that with high probability we can expect the same on this European tour.

You can check out AIR YEL’s music here.

Simple Plan to return to Colombia in 2024 & also add more European summer tourdates!

Simple Plan are keeping their promises and they’re trying to get back to many places where they haven’t performed in a while on their next year’s tour. One of the latest additions to these places is Bogotá, in Colombia (where the local fans haven’t seen the band since their last show there in 2012), where Simple Plan will head to right after their Brazilian tour. The band will perform at the Glory Dayz Festival in Bogotá on March 13th 2024 and tickets are already on sale.

Another addition to the tourlist are some extra summer European shows. Simple Plan have been announced to perform on two more European festivals – Hellfest in France (June 30th) and Rock Werchter Festival in Netherlands (July 5th). And besides that they will also be added as the opening act on some more Avril Lavigne shows in Europe over the summer. We’ve already announced I-Days in Italy, but besides that you will also be able to catch them with Avril in the UK, as they’ll perform in Cardiff (July 2nd) and Manchester (July 3rd).

 

 

 

 

Simple Plan’s European tour begins to sell-out – band adds extra Paris date

It’s been less than a month that Simple Plan announced their upcoming European tour for January and February of next year and given it’s their first headlining tour in years, of course the tickets started immediately flying off the imaginary shelves of ticketing companies.

As of right now, 5 shows of the tour – Paris (January 19th and 20th), Munich (January 26th), Antwerp (February 7th) and Bristol (February 13th) – are already sold-out. Lucky for the French fans, not only they had two Paris shows to choose from to begin with, but given the extraordinary demand, they decided to add another extra show in Paris on January 18th, making them appear in France three times on this tour.

If you still don’t have tickets for this tour, we strongly recommend you purchasing them as soon as possible (find the links here). There are only a handful days off on this tour and it is highly unlikely the band would be adding any more extra dates. See you on tour!
