Among Canada's most-celebrated collectives, Alexisonfire along with Billy Talent have announced a pair of special co-headlining performances bills as 20 Years in the Making.
Set for London’s OVO Wembley Arena on June 24, 2026, followed by a play in Montreal at the Bell Centre on July 17, 2026, the special pairing will celebrate the 20th anniversary of each of the band's career-defining albums with a celebratory performance in full. Marking 20 years of Crisis from Alexisonfire and two decades of Billy Talent II, both bands will take the stage to revisit each album in full for the pair of unique performances.
“It feels like you blink and all of a sudden your album is almost old enough to drink in the United States,” quipped Alexisonfire frontman George Pettit. “So many incredible memories of making this record. It felt like we were really coming into our own as a band. We discovered another level of potential that we didn’t have at the start. I’m happy we get to relive it this summer with all of you.”
In addition to the spectacle of the full album performances, Alexionfire and Billy Talent have recruited Touche Amore to open for the London show and trippy hardcore punk mystics Faze will be joining the festivities in Montreal. Artist pre-sales are set to begin February 10th at 10am local time. General on-sale starts February 13th at 10am local time. See the pair of dates below.
