In a statement, Lavigne said: “So many of the bands I grew up listening to got their start playing this legendary tour and many of my friends are nostalgic for those parking lot summers, so I’m excited to be a part of this new rendition.”

Other locations include Long Beach, California on 26th and 27th July and Orlando, Florida, on 15th and 16th November.

It will mark the first Warped Tour since 2019, when Blink-182, 311, Bad Religion and The All-American Rejects headlined.

Founder Kevin Lyman previously told Rolling Stone about the touring rock show's return for its 30th anniversary: “People start remembering once something’s gone that it was important, it was fun — and I’m hoping to recapture a lot of that again.”

Since it was founded in 1995, the Warped Tour has seen performances by the likes of My Chemical Romance, Paramore, Fall Out Boy and Green Day.
