Avril Lavigne and Simple Plan have been announced as the first artists scheduled to perform at the second installment of the pop-punk festival, All Your Friends Fest.
Set to take place over the June 28-29 weekend at Burl's Creek in Oro-Medonte, ON, the announcement of the two-day festival arrives following a successful inaugural event that occurred this past August, which featured bands such as Fall Out Boy, Jimmy Eat World, Billy Talent and All-American Rejects.
In a statement, pop-punk princess Avril Lavigne shared her excitement for the performance, saying, “I can’t wait to play All Your Friends Fest at Burl’s Creek. It’s going to be a blast playing with so many of my friends at a festival so close to home and I hope to see you all there.”
In addition to her headlining slot on June 29, Lavigne added four other Canadian stops on her Greatest Hits Tour for 2025. The tour will kick off in Moncton on May 18, with dates following in Halifax, London, and Niagara Falls, with Fefe Dobson joining her as support. Ticket information for those shows can be found here.
"We are beyond excited to have All Your Friends Fest return to Burl’s Creek and bring fans together for an incredible Canada Day weekend of music and celebration,” shares Eva Dunford, Co-Founder of Republic Live. “We are thrilled to have Canadian icon and global pop-punk superstar Avril Lavigne headline our Sunday night, kicking off the first weekend of summer in unforgettable style. With amazing performances, great vibes and memories to last a lifetime, this edition of All Your Friends Fest promises to be one for the books.”
