Get out your checkered vans and baggy jeans that you haven’t touched since 2003 – sk8er boi faves The Offspring just announced that their first greatest hits tour in 16 years is coming to Australia, joined by none other than pop-punk lads Sum 41.
The Offspring have got an absolutely iconic setlist planned, and yes it includes year 6 banger Pretty Fly For A White Guy. Plus, you can expect to hear The Kids Aren’t Alright and Self Esteem too.
Sum 41 will be performing a one hour set, and you bet your ass they’re playing Fat Lip and In Too Deep. Do I have a stash of my old spikey leather cuffs from when I was an edgy 13 year old under my bed ready for this exact moment? Yes.

They’re coming in April, which is after the My Chemical Romance reunion performance at Download Festival, where Jimmy Eat World will also perform – 2020 is really out here being the year of the Emo Renaissance.
The tour will kick off on Sunday the 19th of April in Perth, and then will travel to Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, before finishing off in Auckland.
Tickets go on sale to the general public on Monday the 3rd of February at 9am here. You can also sign up here for early-bird presales.
