Fall Out Boy have unveiled what they describe as the largest headlining tour in the band’s history, with the veteran pop-punk outfit slated to perform in arenas and stadiums across North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom in 2027.
After keeping fans guessing with a series of enigmatic hints, including an interactive online campaign and “Twilight of the Punks” messages spotted at venues around the UK, Fall Out Boy have confirmed a global trek under the same banner, alongside the release of their new single, ACES.
The European segment of the itinerary starts in Prague on May 17 before continuing to Budapest, Milan, Madrid, Lyon, Brussels, and Mönchengladbach. The band will then bring the tour to the UK and Ireland with stops in Glasgow, Dublin, Manchester, and London, before concluding the European leg with gigs in Amsterdam, Paris, Berlin, and Lódz, Poland.
A Day To Remember and Neck Deep are lined up to support throughout the European and UK dates.
The North American portion kicks off in Arlington, Texas, on July 13 and runs through August 26 in Portland, Oregon. Joining Fall Out Boy for most of the shows will be The Offspring, Good Charlotte and The Story So Far.
Despite the scale of the undertaking, bassist Pete Wentz has emphasized that fans should not interpret it as a farewell tour.
Speaking to Rolling Stone, he stated: “I always feel that, at some point, what you create should carry significance and weight.”
“But this isn’t that moment. This isn’t what I’m implying at all…
“As we balance family life and other commitments, I know there have been longer gaps between tours and albums, and I believe it’s because we want each chapter to feel meaningful, not just, ‘They tour every few years and release something disposable.'”
While ACES marks new music from Fall Out Boy, frontman Patrick Stump stressed that there is currently no new album in the works.
He quipped: “After Andrew Garfield denied his return as Spider-Man, what can you do?”
“Either I tell the truth, which is that there isn’t an album at the moment, or people can interpret it as a lie.”
“Honestly, at present there isn’t an album. I’m not working on one right now.”
Pre-sales for the European and UK dates kick off on November 11, with general on-sale beginning November 12. Tickets for the North American run follow the same schedule, though exact on-sale times vary by market.
