Avril Lavigne fans, get ready to dust off your neckties and pose in your best sk8er ensemble because the princess of pop-punk is skating through to the Pittsburgh area with her Greatest Hits Tour. The Star Lake Pavilion in Burgettstown will host the storied songstress on Thursday, June 26, 2025. Alongside Lavigne will be the bands Simple Plan and We The Kings, riding the nostalgic wave straight to your emo hearts, according to an announcement made by Lavigne on the social media platform X, as cited by TribLIVE.
The tour, which garnered colossal fanfare resulting in a swift sell-out, has been elongated with 19 additional stops, slating performances well into 2025. Amid the fervor, Lavigne expressed gratitude and stated on X, "When I launched the Greatest Hits tour last year, I was so blown away by all your loveeeeee. You guys sold it out and I wasn't ready for it to be over." These added dates promise to sustain the hype that wrapped around the globe from North America to Europe during this past year's engagements. "Can't wait to see you all in the US and Canada in 2025," she added, further fueling the already sky-high anticipation, as reported by CBS News Pittsburgh.
The tour will take flight from Moncton, New Brunswick, on May 18. It will grace more than a dozen locales before its grand finale in Las Vegas on Oct. 18. Familiars of Lavigne's early aughts anthems can expect to partake in renditions of "Complicated," "Sk8er Boi," "Girlfriend," and "Here's To Never Growing Up" as she celebrates her hits through the years. Hersheypark Stadium in Hershey will also see Lavigne’s return on Saturday, June 7.
Fans should mark their calendars—tickets for the additional dates leap into the marketplace on December 6 at 10 a.m. following presales, CBS News Pittsburgh reported. Touting a career that rocketed Lavigne to stardom since the release of her debut album "Let Go," she has since sold 50 million albums globally, lined her shelves with 10 JUNO Awards, and left star-shaped imprints both on Canada's Walk of Fame and Hollywood's. Moreover, cementing her digital dominance, her "Girlfriend" video was the first to amass 100 million views on YouTube, a testament to her unshakable spot in music history.
