Sum 41 Announces Final Tour Dates and Last-Ever Show Ahead of Their Separation as a Band
The band will embark on the Tour of the Setting Sum across the globe for much of 2024
Sum 41 is officially saying farewell.
After the pop-punk icons revealed via social media in May 2023 that they were going their separate ways following the release of their upcoming album Heaven :x: Hell, the band has officially announced their final tour dates — including their last-ever performance.
The Canadian group featuring Deryck Whibley, Dave Baksh, Jason McCaslin, Tom Thacker and Frank Zummo shared they’ll be setting out on the Tour of the Setting Sum for much of 2024, and will play their last show in Toronto on Jan. 30, 2025, on Tuesday. Throughout the tour, they'll be saying goodbye to fans across the globe, as they're performing stints across Asia, North America and Europe.

After the “In Too Deep” band sets out on the Asian leg of their tour in March and plays a festival in Mexico at the end of the month, they’ll embark on the first portion of their U.S. tour starting on April 19 with a concert in Omaha, Nebraska. During the first U.S. leg, the group will hit major cities like Boston, New York City, Atlanta, Nashville and Philadelphia, before eventually wrapping up in Norfolk, Virginia on May 19.
The Grammy-nominated group will take their show across Europe through much of the summer, then complete their North American dates starting Aug. 1. From then until early October, the hitmakers will play in cities like San Francisco, Miami and Los Angeles, among others, concluding on Oct. 5 in Los Angeles.

They'll be bringing along L.A.-based ska band The Interrupters as support.
While Sum 41 was originally supposed to play their last gig on Nov. 23 in Nanterre, France, since the concert at the 35,000-capacity Paris La Défense Arena sold out, they’ve since announced another performance. On Jan. 30, 2025, the punk rockers will take to the stage together for the last time at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena.
To announce the Tour of the Setting Sum, the “Fat Lip” band shared a nostalgic teaser featuring fun clips from throughout their career that spans nearly three decades to Instagram.
Fans can expect Sum 41 to play both their classic pop-punk tunes, as well as new music, on their final tour, as it comes off the heels of the release of their last record. Heaven :x: Hell, their eighth studio album and final effort together, is due out March 29 (via Rise Records).
"Being in Sum 41 since 1996 brought us some of the best moments in our lives. We are forever grateful to our fans both old and new, who have supported us in any way," the band wrote in a statement upon the announcement of their separation. "It is hard to articulate the love and respect we have for all of you and we wanted you to hear this from us first.”
"Sum 41 will be disbanding," the note continued, with the group going on to tease their last album and their 2023 tour dates.
"For now, we look forward to seeing all of you skumf---ers on the road and are excited for what the future will bring for each of us," added the band. "Thank you for the last 27 years of Sum 41."
This year, the All Killer No Filler musicians prepared for their separation and began saying farewell to fans by setting out on the road with The Offspring and Simple Plan.
Their frontman, 43, also experienced health complications in fall 2023 when he was hospitalized with pneumonia in September. Whibley’s wife, model Ariana Cooper Whibley, revealed the news on social media at the time, then confirmed days later that the singer — who previously experienced kidney and liver failure in 2014 due to alcohol intoxication — was discharged after “responding well to treatments.”
