Two of modern punk’s most recognizable acts are teaming up for a major co-headlining tour next year. Descendents and Frank Turner & the Sleeping Souls have confirmed a 19-date stretch of joint live shows across the U.S. this spring.
The tour launches on Feb. 13 in Grand Rapids, Mich., ahead of stops in Baltimore, Charlotte, New Orleans, Cleveland, Omaha, and more. This special set of dual-headlining shows from the influential California-based punk pioneers and English-born singer-songwriter’s full-band project will come to an end on March 15 in Chicago, marking an especially meaningful career milestone for Turner.
“Insanely enough, this is not a fever dream,” he shared in a social media post. “In February and March 2026, I will be heading around the USA on a co-headline tour with Descendents. They have been one of my favourite bands since I was a kid. I adore their records, wrote them into songs, have seen them live countless times, and am lucky to call them friends. Now we’re sharing stages. This is a dream come true for me.”
Canadian punk outfit NOBRO will act as support on all co-headlining dates, excluding the Feb. 23 performance in Orlando, Fla., as noted below.
A general on-sale for the tour begins this Friday, Nov. 7, at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster. You can find more information on the live dates by visiting Frank Turner’s official website.
