NOFX Announce Their Final Tour Of Australia

40 years. 40 cities. 40 songs per night. That’s how NOFX are marketing their upcoming Final tour, which you won’t want to miss when the legendary punks return to the east coast of Australia in January 2024.

“This is not a final tour like Mötley Crüe or Black Sabbath,” vocalist Fat Mike said in a statement. These are the very last shows NOFX will ever be playing. We are gonna play with all our hearts...With all our joy...And then we are done. We are done done.”

Fat Mike told the punk music-loving world that NOFX would be hanging it up back in September 2022. The bass player, primary songwriter and frontman for the Californian punk band made the shocking announcement via the most low-key method imaginable: a reply to an Instagram comment. 

Responding to a fan who asked why NOFX didn’t tour Canada, Fat Mike replied, "Actually, We love Canada, it’s just that next year will be our last year. We will be announcing our final shows soon. It’s been an amazing run….” He added, “Los Angeles will be the last place we play. It’s where we started, it’s where we’ll end.”

In a November 2022 interview with Kill Your Stereo, Fat Mike told Dan Cribb, “I'm so sick of being Fat Mike on stage.”

He continued, “This last tour is going to be very special, and we're playing all the songs we've ever written, and it's so exciting for me - I can't wait. It's going to be really hard and emotional, but I haven't given it my all, and I can't wait to fucking play these albums we've never played before and connect with the crowd.”

He wasn’t kidding about playing all the songs NOFX have ever written on their upcoming tour – on the band’s Final tour of Australia, NOFX will perform over two nights in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, celebrating the following albums: Wolves In Wolves' Clothing, Punk In Drublic, The War On Errorism, White Trash Two Heebs And A Bean, So Long And Thanks For All The Shoes and The Decline.

In addition to playing three albums a night, NOFX will also bring out some rarities.

The general on-sale begins this Friday, 8 September, at 10 am, but Live Nation Australia, SBM and NOFX subscribers can access pre-sale tickets on Thursday, 7 September, from 10 am until 9 am the following day.
