It ahs just been announced that a strictly limited number of tickets will be released for the previously sold out Blink 182 Sydney show. Tickets go on sale Thursday 17 January, 9am. Don’t fuck around as there won’t be another chance!

It has been 8 long years but pop punk titans Blink 182 have finally announced their triumphant return to Australia!

To make up for lost time, as well as performing at all five sold out Soundwave Festivals, Mark, Tom and Travis will be bringing their monstrous live show to sideshows in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne!

With a catalogue of hits that make most bands run for cover, Blink 182 will be delivering a show encompassing their storied career to date. It will also include songs from the new album Neighborhoods which had Absolute Punk exclaiming “If every eight-year absence will spawn a great record like Neighborhoods, I think it’s safe to say that I’d be willing to encounter the wait again.”

With 11 albums under their belt, and being one of the inspirational founders of the punk rock movement out of Southern California, The Vandals make their triumphant return to Australia in February. Not only will the lads be performing at the sold out Soundwave Festivals but they will also be joining Blink 182 for their sideshows.

Rounding out this killer punk bill, British rock ‘n’ rollers Sharks are a band with absolute heart that embellish their hardcore D.I.Y ethics with the raw power of the soul. With an explosive edge tempered by intricate riffing and hypnotic harmonies SHARKS are pure, poetic, and powerful.
