FALLING IN REVERSE ANNOUNCES THE “POPULAR MONS(TOUR) AUSTRALIA 2025

FALLING IN REVERSE ANNOUNCES
“POPULAR MONS(TOUR) AUSTRALIA 2025”

WITH SPECIAL GUESTS BLACK VEIL BRIDES & HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD

 

FALLING IN REVERSE announce the POPULAR MONS(TOUR) AUSTRALIA 2025. Kicking off at RAC Arena in Perth, the band will then head to Adelaide Entertainment Centre, Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, finishing off at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre.

The tour will see the band playing their biggest headline shows in Australia to date. Special guests on the tour are BLACK VEILK BRIDES and HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD. Full tour details below.

FALLING IN REVERSE return with 2024’s Popular Monster, the postmodern trailblazer’s first full-length in seven years. The album arrives armed with no less than three RIAA-certified gold singles (“ZOMBIFIED,” “Voices in My Head,” “Watch the World Burn”), the certified ARIA triple platinum title track, a reimagined nü-metal classic, and six brand new anthems of furious metal, melody, and hip-hop.

Popular Monster is a defiant statement and triumphant victory for singer, songwriter, bandleader, and provocateur Ronnie Radke, who invented FALLING IN REVERSE inside a prison cell.

“Radke stands as one of this generation’s most revered rock frontmen,” wrote the esteemed Forbes Magazine in a 2020 profile. “And maybe even one of the scene’s last true rockstars.”

FALLING IN REVERSE’s catalogue has accrued over 6 billion streams. The catalogue streaming remains robust at 45 million per week. Over on TikTok, the band has a stronghold, with 6 billion video views, with 4.5 million creations and an 1.8 billion creator reach.

FALLING IN REVERSE have sold out arenas globally in the USA, Europe and the UK. Make no mistake, the POPULAR MONS(TOUR) AUSTRALIA will definitely follow suit.

The numbers don’t lie — FALLING IN REVERSE are the rock scene’s biggest sensation.

It’s hard to imagine in 2024, after BLACK VEIL BRIDES most recent album produced their highest-charting single in the U.S, and legions of supporters passionately scream their devotion during every performance. But before the birth of the BVB Army, the thousands of lyric tattoos, and the gold and platinum records that followed, BLACK VEIL BRIDES was simply a dark vision dreamt up by an only child in Cincinnati, Ohio.

BLACK VEIL BRIDES new single Bleeders offers a taste of what will become Black Veil Brides’ most visceral, theatrical, and unrelenting era yet. They combine a unique identity with an unquenchable creative thirst. They’re an object of devotion for those who sing their anthems in unison, a diverse BVB Army who never surrenders.

BLACK VEIL BRIDES and their audience slash away at the darkness together, bleeders one and all.

Since the release of HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD’s RIAA platinum-certified 2008 debut album, Swan Songs, their distinctive and infectious music has incited a cult audience of millions of fans, resulting in sold out shows across the globe, in addition to receiving nods in the press from the likes of Consequence of Sound, Billboard, Alternative Press, Rolling Stone, and Revolver. The quintet has also garnered massive mainstream appeal, with their 2011 sophomore record, American Tragedy, going gold and hitting #4 on the Billboard Top 200 chart. Now, with over 3.1 billion cross-platform streams, 1 billion YouTube views and 4.1 million monthly Spotify listeners, they have firmly cemented their place as one of the most influential bands of the 21st century. Now signed to Sumerian Records, and with the release of their brand new single, ‘Hollywood Forever’, HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD are poised for their most exciting chapter yet.

Get In Quick.

The Offspring: SUPERCHARGED Worldwide In ’25 Australia With Simple Plan

by the partae November 27, 2024
written by the partae

Once was not enough for punk rock icons THE OFFSPRING! Fresh off the release of their brand new album SUPERCHARGED and their earth-shattering one-off performance in Melbourne last night, the legendary five-piece have officially supercharged their 2025 plans, today announcing their return down under next May for the The Offspring: SUPERCHARGED Worldwide in ’25 Australia tour with SIMPLE PLAN.

A jam-packed arena spectacular from two of the greats, with both THE OFFSPRING and SIMPLE PLAN set to unleash a mountain of hits from across their storied catalogues! The Offspring: SUPERCHARGED Worldwide in ’25 Aussie tour will kick off on Sunday 4 May in Adelaide, heading onto Melbourne and Sydney, and closing out on Wednesday 14 May in Brisbane.

Forming in the mid-80s in Garden Grove, California, THE OFFSPRING ultimately became a cultural juggernaut; a band acknowledged as one of the driving forces behind catapulting punk rock into the mainstream in the 1990s, and also regarded as one of the best-selling acts of all time. From their 1989 self-titled debut album which set the scene for the group’s high-octane wiles and infectious melodies, THE OFFSPRING have since unveiled eleven studio albums, with multiple platinum certifications along the way. The band have repeatedly burned up airwaves across the globe while selling over 40 millions records worldwide and are two time members of the Spotify Billions Club (You’re Gonna Go Far Kid / The Kids Aren’t Alright).

A creative tornado of relentless fun and inventive takes on hardcore, skate and pop punk in their broader punk stratosphere, THE OFFSPRING‘s ability to translate their frenetic energy into a live setting is second to none. Boasting an abundance of hits and deeper fan-favourite cuts throughout their catalogue, spanning the sharpened angst of The Kids Aren’t Alright, the fast-paced and uplifting You’re Gonna Go Far, Kid, the anthemic rawness of Self Esteem or, more recently, the frenetic spark of tracks like Light It Up and Make It All Right, THE OFFSPRING remain at the top of their game decades later, colliding the past, present and future of punk rock into a palatable, memorable and insanely enjoyable adventure that shows zero signs of slowing down.

Between selling over 10 million albums worldwide, taking out multiple awards, dominating MTV in its golden era and also recently spawning their own TikTok viral challenge, multi-platinum Canadian rockers SIMPLE PLAN have remained an indelible part of pop culture for over two decades. Forming in Montreal in 1999, SIMPLE PLAN have retained a rare artist-audience dynamic that has only strengthened over time, with the band also actively releasing new music throughout their 20+ years in existence.

From their debut 2002 full-length, No Pads, No Helmets…Just Balls through to their most recent record, the self-released 2022 album Harder Than It Looks, SIMPLE PLAN‘s legacy continues to affirm as does their show-stopping live performances which has seen them tick off festival sets across the globe, tours with Blink-182, Green Day and Avril Lavigne, and, most recently down under, an entirely sold out eight show run in April that squarely brought the house down night after night with endless energy and good vibes.

With THE OFFSPRING‘s ALWAYS Live intimate one-night-only show in Melbourne selling out in 30 seconds, and SIMPLE PLAN‘s Australian headline run earlier this year entirely sold out, tickets definitely won’t last long for The Offspring: SUPERCHARGED Worldwide in ’25 edition down under. Don’t miss your chance to Come Out and Play in 2025 with these two rock titans under one roof; Supercharge your 2025!

The famously high-octane thrills of Terminal V Festival are returning to Edinburgh’s Royal Highland Centre and Showground on the Easter Bank Holiday Weekend of Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th April 2025. With more than 100 world-class acts, six specially designed stages and 20,000 people per day – everything about Terminal V is supersized, which is why it is one of the most celebrated and largest techno festivals in Europe. This iconic annual event is sure to be sold out fast.
The festival stands apart from the competition thanks to a dedication to key details – innovative and explosive production, high spec sound systems and carefully curated artists that traverse a wide spectrum of techno, bass, electro and acid from red-hot new stars to venerated veterans.
 
 
Chief amongst them are the likes Brutalismus 3000 who are playing a Scottish festival for the first time ever and have a serrated blend of gabber, post-punk and techno, returning favourite Blawan who is a staple in the experimental techno world, bringing raw, industrial sounds that push sonic boundaries and he plays with Helena Hauff who has long been a leader of the electro and techno worlds as she commands the decks with raw, analogue-driven energy.

Kettama offers euphoric, house-infused techno that’s as groovy as it is powerful. Contemporary breakout star LB Aka Labat brings a barrage of breaks, club and bass from with a modern edge.
There will be a superb Scottish contingent representing the fertile local scene with likes of Testpress who specialise in dark, punchy techno, fast-rising simOne who is all about hardcore beats and big, Eurotrash sounds, and Sikoti, a co-founder and resident DJ at Dark Room Sessions who plays it hard,  all stepping up.
Berlin legend Patrick Mason is known for his theatrical performances and combining commanding vocals with pulsating techno, Filth On Acid label head Reinier Zonneveld is a live techno wizard who has helped define the acid and hard techno revolution. Add in AZYR, who is up for Best DJ in the DJ Mag Awards, plus the famously high energy sounds and catchy melodies of Aussie duo X Club and these artists, along with tens more, promise a lineup that’s as dynamic as it is forward-thinking.
Held at Edinburgh’s Royal Highland Centre, Terminal V Festival offers many different and equally immersive experiences across six indoor and outdoor stages each with their own look and feel. This means you can dance the day and night away as you please and have your own musical adventure through the night, matching the music to your mood.
In all across the two days, 40,000 house and techno enthusiasts from across the UK and beyond all unite on the famously warm and welcoming dance floor. It is a safe space for all that makes this more than just a party – it’s a gathering of like-minded music lovers where lifetime memories and friendships are formed.

INTERVIEW: KYBBA on ‘Ba Ba Bad’ Sean Paul, Busy Signal Collab

by the partae November 23, 2024
written by the partae

“Ba Ba Bad” has already captured global attention—can you walk us through how the track came to life and how Sean Paul and Busy Signal got involved?

The song started first with Busy Signal, he was in the studio with Crawba, they called me and asked for beats, the next morning I received the full vocal already, so I pieced it out and made a first demo. During one of my events in Amsterdam I just played the demo and the crowd reaction was insane, so the following day I uploaded the night footage and the track went immediately viral on both tt and ig. Then Leftside sent the track to Sean Paul and he loved it, so he dropped a verse and in literally a couple of days we released the track.

With the song initially going viral on social media, how did platforms like TikTok influence your decision to expand the track into this powerhouse collaboration?

It was just natural cause Leftside was trying to link me with Sean Paul for some months now, to do a collaboration between me and him, so I felt this was the right moment and the right song.

What was the most exciting or unexpected moment during the creation of “Ba Ba Bad,” especially working with legends like Sean Paul and Busy Signal?

I think the days I received both vocals, I felt the energy and it was special because both artists loved the project so much.

Dancehall has such a rich cultural history—how do you ensure your production stays authentic while bringing your own signature style to the genre?

I grew up listening to Reggae and Dancehall, I’ll always respect the originators and the Jamaican culture in general, that’s why I make sure in most of my tracks to feature Jamaican artists, and to collaborate with Jamaican producers too. My first song ever was with Leftside, who is one of my favourite Jamaican Dancehall artists and now also a good friend. I want to remark that my sound contains a lot of elements also from Shatta, which is a dancehall sub genre from Martinique, and Moombahton. The Basshall signature is a mix of all these sounds.

Your unique blend of Dancehall, Latin, and urban sounds has resonated globally. What inspires you to explore and merge such diverse influences in your music?

I think because I was first a DJ and then I started producing, and especially in my first days as a DJ I always loved to mix different genres and sounds, so my sets were definitely unique in that sense from the start. I basically translated my djing style into my record label sound signature and production style. I definitely have many inspirations from different genres and cultures, three of my fav artists/producers are Vybz Kartel, Manu Chao and Diplo, all of them versatile and unique in their own way.

Having already amassed over 100 million streams in your career, how do you approach creating music that connects so strongly with both core fans and new listeners worldwide?

I genuinely don’t know, I do not strategise a lot when it comes to my music creation, I just work on things that I like, then I hope my core fans as well as the new listeners will like it.

The Basshall Movement is a game-changer in the industry. How does being at the helm of a label, TV channel, and event brand impact your work as an artist and producer?

Well I like it but sometimes it is overwhelming, I’m not really good at delegating but I’m learning it and my team and management are helping.

What does it mean to you personally and professionally to have Sean Paul describe your production as ‘wicked’ and feel compelled to jump on the track?

Is like a dream come true, I grew up listening to his music so having my name next to his on a release it’s a huge achievement.

With appearances at festivals like Tomorrowland, how do you prepare to translate your studio sound into a live performance that captivates massive audiences?

I try to imagine myself in the crowd. So obviously a set I play in a club/boiler room type of set up will always be different than a big stage like Tomorrowland etc. I always stay true to my sound but I definitely shape my set differently when it comes to big stages.

What’s next for KYBBA? Are there any upcoming projects, collaborations, or surprises in the pipeline that you can share with your fans?

I’m working on my first EP, I have many collaborations I’m working on, one is with the legend Buju Banton. There are many other projects but I can’t share any details atm. I’ll also announce a world tour in the next few months!!

LANY Lights Up Hordern Pavilion with Unforgettable Show and Emotional Highs

by the partae November 21, 2024
written by the partae

Words: Josh Ma

LANY transformed Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion into a haven of dreamy pop beats and heartfelt connections. The setlist, a rollercoaster of emotions, delivered everything fans have come to love about the trio: vulnerability, energy, and a sense of community.

The night opened with the fan-favorite “YOU!”, sparking immediate energy across the venue as Paul Klein and the band emerged from behind white curtains and 007 like spotlights, setting the stage for what felt like therapy on a Wednesday night. This show, part of their long-awaited tour, had been delayed due to Klein’s recent motorcycle accident, adding a layer of poignancy to their return to the stage since their last tour in Sydney in 2022. The crowd was in sync with every beat, and from there, LANY didn’t let up. “ex i never had” and “up to me”brought a mix of nostalgia and fresh energy that’s quintessential to LANY’s style. The wistful “It Even Rains in LA” and the introspective “I Pray” showcased lead singer Paul Klein’s emotional range, leaving fans hanging on every lyric.

In a particularly memorable moment, the band segued into “somewhere / Sugar & Cinnamon”, drawing fans deeper into the introspective core of their music before jumping into fan favorite “care less” from their 2021 album, gg bb xx. Klein’s raw vocal delivery paired with airy melodies set the stage for heartbreak anthems like “Congrats” and the soul-baring “I Don’t Wanna Love You Anymore” making everyone including me grove.

As the setlist progressed, LANY continued to guide the crowd through highs and lows, balancing upbeat anthems with reflective ballads. “dancing in the kitchen”sparked joy and movement, while “pink skies” added a magical atmosphere—complete with a surprise proposal. As the intro to this 2016 hit played, Klein invited a fan on stage with his partner where he got down on one knee, prompting cheers from the sold-out crowd at Hordern.

LANY kept the mellow vibe going with “Alonica”, “Thick and Thin”, and “Out of My League”, while “dna”resonated with deeper emotional undertones. The back-to-back performance of “Super Far / Mean It” brought a jolt of excitement, leading into Klein’s acoustic rendition of “13”, a moment fans had eagerly anticipated. The melodic, minor-key rendition of “Hericane” filled the room with raw emotion, even if played only partially, before the band transitioned seamlessly into “’Cause You Have To”.

The evening’s came with the trio’s powerful nostalgic fan favourite off their 2019 album “Thru These Tears” and “Malibu Nights”, both delivering the full scope of LANY’s signature sound: bittersweet lyrics and lush instrumentals that tug at the heartstrings which are suitable for those are in love or are heartbroken. For the encore, “ILYSB” brought the crowd to a fever pitch, with every word shouted back in a unified, emotional wave. Finally, they closed with the powerful “XXL”, a fitting end to a night that felt larger than life, with Klein diving into the crowd multiple times before the band bid farewell to Hordern in true Lonely Tunes style.

The crowd at Hordern Pavilion was left buzzing, carried by LANY’s effortless transitions between joy and heartache. The show was a reminder of how the band continues to build genuine connections with fans through their music and presence. Every track on the setlist was a perfect piece in the tapestry of an unforgettable evening, proving once again that LANY is more than a band—they’re a shared experience.

REVIEW: Tate McRae – 12 Nov 2024, Hordern Pavilion, Sydney

by the partae November 21, 2024
written by the partae

Words: Zac Farr

THE GREAT POP REVIVAL

 

Static sounds and flickering lights… the screen teased retro super film as the subs began to tease the heart… a voice over transported us into a special place… the Hordern was ready… ready to witness something magical… an eagerness somewhat like when man walked on the moon filled the room… and there she was… the twenty one year old icon… taking her rightful place as the future of pop… taking us to brand new, magical places. 

She doesn’t just have a fantastic vocal range or songs that have become the anthems of millions of her fans lives. Tate McRae brings everything pop is onto one stage. The dancers, the sas, the sexy, the songs, the stage design… she has created her own little world and invited us along for the ride and it is no accident. We owe it to the sacrifice she made being placed in the spotlight at 13, a sacrifice that has equip her with a wealth of knowledge throughout all fascists of the industry to add spice where it is needed, write songs with depth, ensure her people are loved with rooftop pop ups and collude dance, lights and ballads to strike the hearts of anyone who found themselves in the Hordern Pavilion at 9pm on a Tuesday night. 

Tate showed off her spectacular taste having Seattle born Charlieonnafriday open the night with a wonderful little set full of his hit singles such as Enough, I’m not crazy and After Hours as well showing of pieces of his new album WILD CHILD with tracks such as When it Rains filling the room with pure joy. His eclectic sound that merges pop, country tones and a mellow hip hop forces heads to nod and the hips to sway. The perfect to vibe to warm up the Mcrazies for the main event. 

Opening with the heaving hitting Think later had the sea of Jerseys, high ponies and stuffed teddies going word for word alongside her from the get go. With vibrant dance breaks and guitar solos she and her team brought their A-game showing of her latest Album THINK LATER in all of the awe inspiring ways. She also gave the day ones some love including the tracks uh oh and she’s all I wanna be as well as the song that really put her on the musical map at sixteen you broke me first. There is something quite special when someone can bring together the die hards, the fathers, the broken hearted and the joy filled to sing together under one roof tracks like exes next to guilty conscience really emphasising how different people, from different worlds can have such powerful shared experiences. 

Overall, Tate was five stars, she inspired the woman to own who they are, back each other, enjoy where they are at and being a little bitter sometimes isn’t such a bad thing. She currently holds a prominent space in the pop scene and with The Kid Laroi on her arm partnered with some of lasts years biggest and best pop songs there is not much stopping her from stealing all of Australia’s hearts.

BOBBY UNCLE shares new track ‘THE WAY YOU STAND’

Sydney’s BOBBY UNCLE shares new track ‘THE WAY YOU STAND’ from debut EP MIMES MISS THE BEACH

 

Continuing to delight with his own brand of indie-pop sounds, Sydney songwriter and performer Bobby Uncle has returned with a new single titled ‘The Way You Stand’.

 

Taken from the artist’s forthcoming debut EP Mimes Miss The Beach, ‘The Way You Stand’ serves as a great gateway into Bobby Uncle’s songwriting style, and the evolution of his soundscapes as we head into the end of the year. Leaning into ‘80s synth and ‘70s guitar-rock influences, ‘The Way You Stand’ encompasses the intoxicating feeling one gets when they come across someone who completely mesmerises them.

 

Following on from tracks including ‘February (I Know)’, ‘Tragedy Delight’ and ‘Coffee’, ‘The Way You Stand’ is a fun and immersive release from Bobby Uncle that provides cool insight into the rest of the EP project.

 

“I thought to myself, what is a silly characteristic about someone that makes them so special and in a league of their own, compared to everyone else? I thought, well obviously, the way they stand. I mean, who compliments someone by the way they stand? Yet, if you think about it, the way someone stands can really make them stand out from a crowd. Just look at supermodels and the way they stand on the billboards, or a Hollywood superstar in a movie. You can point them out even if they are walking with a stream of people. Nonetheless, the song is meant to be fun, energetic and to capture that good feeling of a summer love, hence why the lyrics are quite playful.” BOBBY UNCLE

 

‘The Way I Stand’ was recorded in Neutral Bay, Sydney, at Bobby Uncle’s home studio. The beginnings of the song were coming together in December 2023, though he only returned to it in September 2024 to finish it off into the bright final result we hear today.

Bobby Uncle has been on a strong upwards trajectory since emerging back in 2021 – with significant support from radio and editorial outlets alike. Previous single’s ‘Summertime (Make It Happen)’ and ‘Coffee’ both saw heavy airplay on stations such as triple J, triple J Unearthed, iHeart Radio, SYN and 4ZZZ; and have been praised by tastemakers such as Rolling Stone Australia, Scenestr, Frankie Magazine and AAA Backstage upon release.

 

PRAISE

 

“Sydney’s Bobby Uncle has brewed up “Coffee” – a fun pop single about sleepless nights over a crush who doesn’t feel the same way.”

ROLLING STONE AUSTRALIA (‘Coffee’, 2024)

 

“Bobby Uncle reels you in with luscious melodies and an upbeat tone – loving this new one <3”

TRIPLE J UNEARTHED, ANIKA LUNA (‘Coffee’, 2024)

 

“Your voice goes in some really interesting and unexpected places here. Bring on that EP!”

TRIPLE J, ABBY BUTLER (‘Summertime (Make It Happen)’, 2024)

 

“‘Coffee’ weaves through many different moods and tones throughout its runtime – creating a consistently compelling listen, filled to the brim with catchy ear worms that are sure to stick around long after the song has finished.” 

THE ROCKPIT (‘Coffee’, 2024)

 

“Here, whirring synths accompany Uncle’s voice, which on the chorus becomes distorted with a hazy vocoder flair. Pulling together such eclectic sounds, Uncle coalesces the track around an insatiable, ever-catchy rhythm, and some truly earwormy refrains.”

HAPPY MAGAZINE (‘Pendulum’, 2024)

PENNYWISE + MILLENCOLIN – AUSTRALIAN TOUR 2025

by the partae November 19, 2024
written by the partae

PENNYWISE + MILLENCOLIN CO-HEADLINE AUSTRALIAN TOUR 2025

In 2025, two of the all-time punk greats will return to Australian stages, with pioneering California dynamos PENNYWISE and beloved Swedish trailblazers MILLENCOLIN set to co-headline a huge run down under next February and March.

With both metro and regional shows on the cards next year, PENNYWISE and MILLENCOLIN will kick off on Saturday 22 February in Wollongong, before hitting Newcastle, Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Sydney and Adelaide, and closing out on Wednesday 5 March in Perth.

A band synonymous with punk rock and thought-provoking lyricism, PENNYWISE erupted out of the vibrant coastal setting of Hermosa Beach in California with their self-titled debut album in 1991, ultimately going on to change the sonic landscape and cultivate a sweltering legacy via their unique blend of DIY spirit, hardcore, skate punk and SoCal pop punk. Renowned for their ability to fuse raw emotion and ravenous energy with themes of empowerment and rallying calls for change, PENNYWISE encapsulate the essence of rebellion with anthems like Bro Hymn and Fuck Authority, while also remaining as fundamental to punk rock and hardcore as stage dives and guitars.

With twelve studio albums, including their Certified Gold records About Time (1995), Full Circle (1997) and Straight Ahead (1999), PENNYWISE have also showcased their formidable onstage presence across the globe for decades alongside the biggest names in the scene, most recently supporting Dropkick Murphys for a huge North American tour, and also for Aussie audiences last year as part of Good Things Festival. A band fluent in balancing the spirit of punk alongside subversion and celebration, PENNYWISE are primed to bring the revolution to Australian audiences in 2025.

For over 30 years, Swedish icons MILLENCOLIN have vividly put punk on the map. With their original lineup still intact since forming back in 1992, MILLENCOLIN‘s debut album, 1994’s Tiny Tunes, opened the floodgates that would shape the quartet’s staggering career to come. Skyrocketing their popularity courtesy of the 2000 full-length Pennybridge Pioneers, the rock-infused dive beyond the band’s earlier skate punk and ska leanings would ultimately spawn iconic tracks like No Cigar and Penguins & Polarbears, achieving infamy with No Cigar‘s addition to the soundtrack for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2, and ultimately finding the overall album scoring an ARIA Platinum certification.

One of punk rock’s most famed and favourite acts to emerge out of Europe, MILLENCOLIN have played thousands of shows around the world, including as part of Warped Tour, Soundwave Festival and Big Day Out, multiple sold out headline performances, tours with the likes of Bad Religion and The Offspring, and, most recently for Australians, at Good Things Festival in 2022. And never ones to rest on their laurels,  MILLENCOLIN also continue to finesse their sonic creations, seen vividly via their 2019 album SOS, exploring political and darker themes without sacrificing their explosive energy and gripping melodics.

Do not miss your chance to witness PENNYWISE and MILLENCOLIN live in action in 2025, secure your spot to one of the biggest co-headline events of the year!
