The Offspring announce United States tour with Sum 41 and Simple Plan

Punk rock legends The Offspring have announced details of a 24-city summer tour with Sum 41 and Simple Plan, kicking off in Washington on August 1 and wrapping up in Massachusetts one month later.

"One of the best things about being on tour is traveling the world playing to great audiences, and it's even better when you can do it with your friends," says The Offspring's Dexter Holland. "We had sold out international tours with Simple Plan and Sum 41, and we're excited that they'll be joining us this summer in America. It's going to be great!"

"We're so excited to be back touring The States with The Offspring and Simple Plan this summer," adds Deryck Whibley of Sum 41. "There's nothing better than hitting the road with your friends, and we can't wait to bring the tour to you – see you soon!"

Simple Plan's Chuck Comeau agrees. "We couldn't be more excited to get back on tour all across the U.S. with our friends The Offspring and Sum 41! We had such a blast touring with both of them last year that we just had to do it again and put together what we feel will be one of the most awesome tours of the summer. There's nothing like going to see a show outside on a perfect summer night, and we hope our fans will join us and enjoy this really special show."

The Offspring will be headlining this year's Slam Dunk Festival in Hatfield and Leeds on May 27 and 28, but if you're on the other side of The Pond, you can catch them at the dates below.
