Avril Wraps First Leg of North American Greatest Hits Headline Tour; Second Leg Kicks Off August 12 with a SOLD OUT Show at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena

International Pop Icon To Make Glastonbury Debut Performance on June 30

(June 21, 2024) – Today, eight-time GRAMMY®-nominated diamond-certified icon Avril Lavigne releases her first-ever Greatest Hits album via Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment. An essential compilation from all phases of Avril’s pioneering career as one of the 21st century’s breakout pop icons, Avril Lavigne – Greatest Hits features 20 career-spanning fan-favorites from her record-smashing catalog including the Music Canada and RIAA 4x PLATINUM-certified “Complicated” and 3x PLATINUM-certified “Sk8er Boi” from her chart-topping 2002 debut album Let Go (Artista), the RIAA 7x PLATINUM-certified “Girlfriend” from The Best Damn Thing (2007, RCA), and more through her seventh studio album Love Sux (2022, Elektra/DTA) with songs such as “Bite Me,” “Bois Lie” feat. Machine Gun Kelly and “I’m A Mess” with Yungblud.

Since May, Avril has been showcasing her Greatest Hits on the road throughout a series of unforgettable concerts as she recently completed the first leg of her North American tour. The Avril Lavigne: The Greatest Hits tour is a vibrant, high energy, four-part production that showcases her powerful vocal abilities and live performance prowess. Currently on a run of EU/UK shows that include her Glastonbury debut performance on June 30, the North American tour will continue August 12 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto – one of two sold out Toronto shows across multiple venues before making stops in Holmdel, Charlotte, Nashville, Chicago and more before closing out the show-stopping tour in Calgary on September 18.

“Whether on kiss-off punk anthems or soaring ballads, Lavigne added an instantly recognizable texture to her vocals that commanded attention” – RIFF Magazine

“The career retrospective she packed into around 90 minutes really did deliver all hits and no filler.” – Vancouver Sun

“Not that many pop singers have the kind of pipes where they have to use proper mic technique to avoid massive distortion and feedback. Lavigne has that kind of control and its pure pro.” – Vancouver Sun

“A journey through her hit filled pop-punk career…Lavigne showed she is an incredible, acrobatic vocalist” – The Santa Barbara Independent

“Lavigne’s new ‘The Greatest Hits Tour’ has already proven that there is still a current space in the music world for her music and the music of the 2000s” – Seattle Spectator

Four of Avril’s studio albums – Under My Skin (Arista/RCA – 2004), Best Damn Thing (RCA – 2007), Goodbye Lullaby (RCA – 2011), and Avril Lavigne (Epic – 2013) – were also released today for the first time in 12″ vinyl editions expanded to include bonus recordings formerly available as digital-only tracks. Amazon offers an exclusive metallic silver pressing of Under My Skin, an exclusive 2LP surge green pressing of Goodbye Lullaby (with nine bonus tracks) and an exclusive opaque baby blue pressing of Avril Lavigne (with three bonus tracks). Avril’s D2C store also offers their own exclusives including a 2LP 12″ neon pink vinyl pressing of The Best Damn Thing (with five bonus tracks). Released in January 2023 in expanded digital and 2LP 12″ vinyl formats as Let Go (20th Anniversary Edition), Avril’s 2002 diamond-certified studio debut has been re-struck in a new 12″ vinyl pressing for the Avril Lavigne catalog reissue celebration.
