Avril Lavigne’s explosive opening set for Machine Gun Kelly at the American Family Insurance Amphitheater in 2022 was one of the best performances at Summerfest that year.

Now the pop-punk hitmaker is getting the amphitheater headlining concert she deserves.

On Monday, Lavigne announced a 27-date “Greatest Hits” tour. Spanning from May through September, kicking off and wrapping up in her native Canada, Lavigne’s North American tour comes to the American Family Insurance Amphitheater Sept. 9.
