It looks like we’re just gonna have to pretend like 2020 never happened, since all events are starting to get postponed for next year. After having postponed their long-awaited co-headlining ‘Pop Punk’s Still Not Dead’ U.S. tour (that was supposed to take place this May and June) with New Found Glory indefinitely a few weeks ago, Simple Plan have just announced that they are finalizing the details of postponing the tour for next year – roughly on very similar dates, also in May and June – this time though, in 2021.
We should be getting specific details about all the new shows and their dates soon, so keep checking our website’s Tour section for that. All purchased tickets for all shows of this tour remain valid for the rescheduled dates in 2021, but if you choose to do so, you can also request a refund.
Check out Simple Plan’s official statement below:
Hey everyone, we hope you’re all doing ok in these difficult times.
In a parallel universe somewhere, we would be on tour right now rocking out for you with our friends New Found Glory on the “Pop-Punk’s Still Not Dead” tour. Unfortunately, we all know this is impossible at the moment and it’s been really tough for us to be unable to do what we love the most: playing shows for you.
Having said that, we have been working very hard to reschedule the shows and today, we are excited to announce that the entire tour will be moving to May / June of next year (2021). It’s been a long and complicated process to re-book all the venues and we expect to be able to share with you all the new dates and final details in the coming weeks. We apologize it has taken us so long to do so.
If you have a ticket for any of the shows on the tour, you can hold on to them and they will be valid for the new 2021 dates.
We know these dates might seem far away, but we’re hoping that the situation will be better by then and that we won’t have to postpone again. There’s obviously a lot of uncertainty, but we want you to know that your health and safety are our number one priority and will guide all our decisions.
We are also mindful that some of you might have experienced financial hardship because of the pandemic or might no longer be able to attend the shows next year. We are really sorry if you’re in that situation. On June 15, you should receive an email from your original point of purchase with info about receiving a refund, if you choose to do so.
We want to thank you all for your patience and understanding in these extremely weird and difficult times. We appreciate it so much and can’t wait to be able to hang out with all of you again.
– Pierre, Chuck, Sebastien, Jeff and David –
