Don Broco have been enjoying a fantastic 2023. A headlining UK arena tour with Papa Roach and Dance Gavin Dance, supporting Pierce The Veil and The Used on their North American tour and then delivering thrilling sets at Reading and Leeds festival (their seventh appearance to date) have reminded their fans why they are considered one of the best live bands on the scene today.
Now, much to the delight of their scores of supporters, Don Broco have announced a huge tour of the UK starting this autumn and carrying them into the winter. Titled “The Birthday Party Tour,” to celebrate the first national tour the band embarked upon back in 2008, the group will be hitting 15 cities across the UK, including shows at London’s KOKO, Cambridge’s Corn Exchange and Brighton’s Dome to name a few.

Don Broco’s latest album, 2022’s Amazing Things, landed the band their first ever UK number one after facing delays due to the Covid pandemic. The distinction boosted the group’s stature within the rock scene, seeing them make the step up to headlining shows in arenas. And the band have since been capitalising on the album’s success, releasing the single “Fingernails” in April of 2022 and bringing their riveting live show to North America, Europe and Australia.
Formed in Bedford in 2008, Don Broco can trace its origins to when the members were in secondary school, playing sporadic gigs before officially forming as a band while the members were at Nottingham University. Unlike many of their contemporaries, Don Broco began by touring extensively between 2008-2010, appearing at various festivals and supporting Enter Shikari during their Christmas party shows.
After releasing the successful EP, Big Fat Smile in 2011, the band underwent a few lineup changes before signing with Search And Destroy Records where they recorded and released their debut album, Priorities. Their first headlining tour of the UK soon followed and Don Broco have been maintaining their high standards ever since, releasing three more albums to date to critical acclaim and becoming one of the rock scene’s most sought after acts.
Don Broco will be heading to North America before kicking off their winter tour, which will get underway on the 29th of November in Reading and finish at London’s KOKO on the 17th of December. Tickets go on sale on Friday at 10am and can be purchased here.
