Billy Idol will return to the road in the spring for a North American tour billed as It’s a Nice Day To…Tour Again!.
The legendary punk-rocker will kick off the first leg of the trek on April 30 with a show at the Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre in Phoenix, Arizona and wrap it up on May 23 with a performance in Toronto.
Following a three-month break, the tour will resume on August 16 in Philadelphia and is currently scheduled to conclude on September 25 at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles.
To help those impacted by the devastating LA wildfires, $5 from every ticket sold for the last show of the tour will be donated to the American Red Cross,with Idol set to personally match the donation.
Head below to view a humorous video announcing the trek, featuring comedian Matt Rife and cameos from long-time collaborator and guitarist Steve Stevens, and Joan Jett. The latter will support at all shows with her band The Blackhearts, and tickets go on general sale at 9am local time on Friday (January 24).
Idol recently announced that he had completed work on a new album, with a release expected later this year via Dark Horse Records. Details are to be revealed soon. His most recent studio album is 2014's 'Kings & Queens Of The Underground', though he has put out a live record, a remix album, a festive LP and two EPs, 'The Roadside' and 'The Cage', since then.
The 69-year-old released a deluxe 40th anniversary edition of his landmark sophomore LP, 'Rebel Yell', in 2024, and a concert film titled Billy Idol: State Line in 2023.
Idol will also play the new Forever Now festival in Milton Keynes in the UK on June 22. Tickets for that are on sale now.
Jett, meanwhile, will play a residency at the House Of Blues Las Vegas in June. Her latest release is the 2023 digital EP, 'Mindsets'. She also contributed to 'The Power Of The Heart: A Tribute To Lou Reed', released for Record Store Day last year.
