Fall Out Boy Gets Back In The Punk Spirit

Fall Out Boy is going big in 2027 — or, rather, stadium big. The Chicago-bred band has confirmed the 36-date Twilight of the Punks world tour, which it says is its largest global run ever, while also releasing a new single, “ACES,” its first in more than three years.
The song is out now via Atlantic Records in tandem with a music video directed by Brendan Walter. As for the 2027 itinerary, it starts May 17 at Prague’s O2 Arena and includes 14 additional shows, highlighted by a June 5 stop at London’s gigantic Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. A Day to Remember and Neck Deep will join the band throughout the European and U.K. dates, which conclude June 13 in Łódź, Poland.

The North American leg begins July 13 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Tx., and finishes Aug. 26 at Portland, Or.’s Providence Park. The Offspring, Good Charlotte and The Story So Far will support. Among the most notable shows on the tour is July 24 at Chicago’s Soldier Field, where the band has never undertaken a proper headlining performance.
“Insane to think something that started in the petri dish of Knights of Columbus halls could end up at Soldier Field. Honestly, insane,” the band wrote on Instagram, describing the tour as “the biggest version of this art project yet.” It added that “Aces” was created as “a soundtrack for this moment.”
As for the name of the summer itinerary, Wentz tells Rolling Stone, “this is not a farewell tour. I do always think that at some point it’s the last thing you make, and it should be important. [But] this is not it. This is not what I’m saying at all. The more we go into our family life and whatnot, I do know that it’s been longer between the tours and longer between the albums, and I just think it’s because we want it all to feel important, and not just, oh, they tour every three years and put out a throwaway thing.”
