The band is set to embark on the 2023 Wet Hot All-American Summer Tour, marking their first headlining tour since the Shaking Off the Rust Tour in 2012. The new trek takes them to nearly 30 cities, beginning on August 11 in Tampa, Florida. Along the way, they’ll make stops in Boston, Nashville, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles and other major cities before closing out on October 14 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Fellow pop-rock and punk bands New Found Glory, The Starting Line, Motion City Soundtrack and The Get Up Kids will join as opening acts.
“We’ve been trying to get out on the road in a proper way for the last few years,” All-American Rejects stated in a press release. “We finally realized after playing [When We Were Young Festival in 2022] that the world was ready to pull out of their “guilty pleasure chest” and celebrate the soundtrack of their youth. When New Found Glory, The Starting Line, Motion City Soundtrack and The Get Up Kids signed on, the feeling was, ‘This is a celebration of summers gone by.’ It’s time to embrace the cumulative joy of growing up.”
“We are excited to share with you our dirty little secret,” New Found Glory wrote on Instagram, referencing the Rejects’ 2005 hit, “Dirty Little Secret.” “The powers that be have decided to line up a tour that would bring much joy to the people that love to rock at a level beyond normal levels of rock! So pumped to announce the Wet Hot All-American Summer Tour! Teaming up with The All-American Rejects and we couldn’t be more pumped. Plus every other band on this tour we love and have loved!”
Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday (April 7) at 10 a.m. local time, with a fan presale taking place Tuesday (April 4) until Thursday (April 6).
