Landing in 2011, Mayday Parade features much-loved singles including ‘Oh Well, Oh Well’ and ‘When You See My Friends’, as well as their piano driven ballad, ‘Stay’. The album marked a return to form for the band – recapturing the spark found on their earlier work, reintroducing dual vocals, and creating an album that many described as one of the top pop-punk record of that year.

There is only one way to properly celebrate an album anniversary, which means Mayday will perform their self-titled album in full, alongside fan favourites from across their stellar discography.

Joining Mayday Parade on their trip over from the States is pop punk five-piece Real Friends. With a well-loved discography capped off by their just-released EP Torn In Two, this will be the band’s first tour Down Under since 2017, and their first time on our shores with new vocalist Cody Muraro.

Opening all shows will be local alt-rock duo Those Who Dream. Made up of brothers Josh and Cooper Meyer, their DIY music has earned them acclaim from music press around the world, and with viral success via TikTok they have quickly grown a loyal fanbase.
