Alkaline Trio and Taking Back Sunday have announced details of a co-headline UK tour in March 2022.

The emo-punk legends will play five shows across the United Kingdom early next year, including a big ol' show at London's Brixton O2 Academy.

Despite the odd festival appearance here and there – including Slam Dunk this weekend – this will be Alkaline Trio's first tour of the British Isles since 2015.

“We are so excited to tour the UK again!" says Trio's Dan Andriano. "It’s been way too long and we look forward to seeing some familiar faces and some new ones too. And with our pals in Taking Back Sunday, it will make the return even sweeter! We can’t wait!"

“​We have been very lucky to be able to play shows with Alkaline Trio since 2001," adds Shaun Cooper from Taking Back Sunday. "We are always honoured to share a stage with a band that inspired us early on and continues to do so with every album they put out. We cannot wait to share stages throughout the United Kingdom in 2022!”

You'll be able to catch both bands at one of the dates below. Tickets go on sale September 10 at 10am, UK time.
