Event Details

Busted have announced that they will be celebrating their 20 th anniversary with an arena tour which is heading to The O2 on 10, 27 September and 10 October 2023. The band will be joined by special guests Hanson and The Tyne.

Impossible though it may seem, it’s been twenty years since Busted bounced into the charts with the irrepressible pop-punk energy of their debut single ‘What I Go To School For’ . It kickstarted a succession of hits for the trio, including the #1 smashes ‘Crashed The Wedding’, ‘Who’s David’ , ‘Thunderbirds Are Go’, ‘You Said No’ and the Top 3 singles ‘Year 3000’ , ‘Air Hostess’ and ‘Sleeping WIth The Light On’. Now Busted celebrate their 20th anniversary by announcing details of a major UK arena tour, alongside a series of new versions of fifteen of their classic hits to be released in the build-up, with some very special guests

The tour will see the original much-loved trio - James Bourne, Charlie Simpson and Matt Willis - play their hits and fan-favourites this September. The first track to launch the 20 th anniversary celebrations will be a new version of Busted’s song ‘Loser Kid’ featuring Simple Plan, which will be released on 14 April. Loser Kid featured as the final track on their self-titled debut album and was co-written by Bourne, Simpson and Willis.

Busted’s many successes spread far beyond the singles charts. Three of their four studio albums also peaked at #2, with 4.5 million sales leading to eight Platinum certifications as well as a total of 25 weeks in the Top 10 and two 5x Platinum selling albums. They have won two BRIT Awards - Best Pop Act and Best British Breakthrough - while multiple sold-out arena tours have seen them sell more than 2 million tickets.

Busted’s 20th anniversary tour follows Charlie Simpson’s recent triumph as the winner of 2023’s ’The Masked Singer’, adding to his other projects which have included four solo albums and four albums with the rock band Fightstar. James Bourne is a renowned songwriter, with credits including McFly, The Jonas Brothers, 5 Seconds of Summer and The Vamps, as well as his band Son of Dork and two recent solo albums ‘Safe Journey Home’ (2020) and ‘Sugar Beach’ (2022). After releasing his debut solo album, Matt Willis famously won ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here’ leading to a successful television career as well as acting roles which have included the recent West End hit ‘2:22 A Ghost Story’.

Tickets for the busted tour go on sale at a variety of prices from late march.

Noughties pop-punk boyband Busted has announced a UK-wide reunion tour, set to take place later this year, 18 years after they confirmed their split in an emotional press conference.

In the five years they were together between 2000 and 2005, the three-man band – Charlie Simpson , James Bourne and Matt Willis, all now 39 – had four UK number-one singles, won two Brit awards and sold more than 5 million records.

They made waves in the early 2000s with several iconic bangers including “Year 3000”, “Crashed the Wedding” and “Air Hostess”.

The band reformed for a brief stint in 2013, fusing with childhood friends and fellow pop boyband McFly to form spin-off band McBusted, releasing an album and performing a few comeback tours and one-off gigs.

In the tour announcement video, band member James Bourne said: “We were writing songs that made us laugh, and the songs that made us laugh made other people laugh and feel good.”

Here’s everything you need to know if you want to watch Busted perform live, including ticket price, sale information and a full list of tours and venues.

Heralded as the UK’s answer to Blink-182, Busted became one of the most iconic pop-rock bands of the noughties. Their debut self-titled album released in 2002 featured some of their biggest hits “Year 3000”, “You Said No” and their debut single “What I Go To School For”. Going onto win several accolades including Favourite Newcomer at the National Music Awards and a few BRIT awards saw Busted reach new heights as they released their follow-up album “A Present For Everyone” which went triple platinum in the UK. Their successes continued growing with every single released reaching the top 3 in the UK charts accumulating a number of eight- seriously impressive! With their teenage appeal and emulating a rebellious nature, it’s no wonder that they attracted thousands of adoring fans to their live performances. Opening with classics like “Air Hostess” sees the trio of Matt Willis, Charlie Simpson and James Bourne air jumping as they run across the stage, surrounded by a chorus of screams. Their energy is infectious as the crowd jump up and down, waving their arms in the air to “What I Go To School For” singing along word for word. Their tongue-in-cheek lyrics feed into their banter with the crowd, mirrored by some of the banners that audience wave emphatically. “Year 3000” sends the crowd wild, as the bright lights dart across the stage. “Crashed The Wedding” sees energy levels soar through the roof while ballads like “Sleeping With The Light On” slowing down them temple equally sees the biggest reaction, as the audience sway their arms in the air with the camera lights in the air. If you came to be entertained, Busted will definitely make sure you have a good time.

let me tELL YOU SONGKICK:

okay so when busted announced they were getting back together i was SO happy, the band that made my childhood and the very same band of who no one, including the band themselves, thought would ever get back together and not gonna lie, I'd liked fightstar and Charlie's solo stuff but they were all different and I liked them all in their own way but busted would always have a special part in my heart as my first loves. Anyway, we bought our tickets etc etc and the day finally came, we went and had a meal over at centertainment when

Amazing performance. Lots of energy and love from Charlie, Matt and James. The new tracks they played from the currently unreleased new album were out of this world! I loved every second of it, I was part of the Pigsty Which was ablsolutly isane to see all those people in the crowd and have a different perspective of a gig was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Charlie looks especially happy to be back he was extremely happy and energetic throughout. The lads gave great vocals and played well all night. Very much enjoyed it. Cant wait to see them next time!

After Busted split up I was devastated and when u heard they were having a reunion tour I just knew I had to go! After gettin to see McBusted which had James and Matt this was even better! Play all of the classic songs and I never sat down once. Support acts were great and was an amazing atmosphere. Such funny, talented and down to earth lads. Music sounds even better live. All busted fans must see them!

I've been waiting to see them live for the best part of 18 years and the day before my 21st I finally got to see them.

Best show of my life and I've been to well over 150 gigs in the past 2 years.

Professor Green didn't suit the lineup at all and didn't gain much of a crowd.

Scouting For Girls however were a perfect opening act. Massive crowd with everyone singing along. Brilliant.

BRILLIANT night at the Echo Arena!! Busted were phenomenal and the stage lighting made the show. My 9 year old daughter's first ever show and she was blown away, and still hasn't come down off the high 2 days later !!!

Can't wait for another tour

We'll "Meet you there" Busted boys ... And it's true "pigs CAN fly !! X❤️X

I love busted to bits but I think compared to the concert with mcbusted if was really unorganised I had a great time but there were a few unorganised moments and we didn't get much time with them in the meet and greet but over all busted did amazing the support bands wee fantastic

Amazing concert, nice to hear the old and new song. Duration was a little short. The band played with the audience to entertain us. Stage was fine, lights were good. I missed the opportunity to shake hands and ask for autographs of the band (there were no VIP tickets)

They were amazing. I enjoyed every second of it, altough it felt like it was over so soon. The vocals live were sooo good & they were very interactive with the crowd. I would love to do it all over again & would highly recommend buying tickets for theirs shows 100%

Never watched you live ive got every single one of your albums even the old one year 3000 crashed the wedding air hostess you said no who's David what I go to school for im a big fan and would love to watch them live

One day, when you came home, at lunchtime, you heard that Busted were going back on tour.

Well, it’s true. This September, the boy band are heading out on tour to celebrate 20 years of success. Armed with their greatest hits, Charlie Simpson, Matt Willis and James Bourne will be bringing the good old days of Noughties pop punk to concert halls across the UK.

The trio will be playing 15 shows in major venues including London’s O2, Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena, and Birmingham’s Utilita Arena. The group will also be joined by three supporting guests: Hanson, New Hope Club and The Tyne.

The announcement of the 20th anniversary tour comes alongside the news that Busted will be re-releasing versions of some of their most popular tracks. Starting with their 2002 hit Loser Kid, the band will be putting out 15 songs in total from Friday 14th April.

The group are also promising further collaborations with other bands, including All Time Low and McFly. All the '00s kids out there will probably remember that Busted and McFly collaborated in 2013 and went on a string of tours as McBusted.

Even before then, however, Busted had already earned a spot as Noughties icons. With songs like Year 3000, Crashed the Wedding and even a version of Thunderbirds are Go!, they typified the cheeky and upbeat style of music from that era.

Before splitting up originally in 2005, the trio had secured four UK number-one singles, won two BRIT Awards, and sold over 5 million records. Not much has changed in the decades since, as the band have gone on to release two more studio albums in 2016 and 2019 and toured regularly.

Now, they’re heading on tour again and we can’t wait to meet you there. Here’s how you can get tickets.

How much do tickets cost to see taylor swift’s ‘eras tour’ in austria.

There’s a huge three-day music festival unlike any other headed to Vienna, Austria.

What makes this extravaganza particularly unique is that only two artists are slated to perform.

On Aug. 8-10, Taylor Swift will bring her international ‘Eras Tour’ to the Ernst Happel Stadium for a trio of huge shows with special guest Paramore.

These three concerts at the massive 51,000-seat soccer stadium will be Swift’s first ever in Austria over the course of her legendary career.

Better yet, based on our findings , ticket prices have dropped significantly since the release of Taylor’s “Tortured Poets Department” in April.

Way back then, the cheapest ticket for any one of the three shows at the Ernst Happel Stadium was $761 USD before fees on Vivid Seats.

A mere three months later, prices now start at $241 before fees on Vivid Seats.

For those without a calculator on hand, that’s over $500 (!) in savings.

Sometimes “all of this silence and patience, pining in anticipation” as Tay Tay sings in “Dress,” really does pay off.

For more information, we have everything you need to know and more about Taylor Swift’s three ‘Eras Tour’ concerts at Vienna, Austria’s Ernst Happel Stadium below.

All prices listed above are subject to fluctuation.

Taylor Swift ‘Eras Tour’ news

Our team has been following the ‘Eras Tour’ closely over the past year.

Just a few of the most exciting stories we’ve published include a chat with a Swiftie who  shared some helpful tips  about seeing Taylor live, a report on  dropping ticket prices , and  a list of all the most exciting fan trends .

Taylor Swift new music

Swift’s  “The Tortured Poets Department”  was released at midnight (and subsequently at 2 a.m.) on Friday, April 19.

While every listener will likely come away with their own favorites, we particularly enjoyed the sleek, synthy “Fortnight,” icy “So Long, London,” anthemic “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart,” a bombastic slow build of “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” and gorgeously arranged “Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus.”

If you want to give it a spin — if you’re one of the few people on the planet who hasn’t already, that is — you can find “The Tortured Poets Department”  here .

The Hayley Williams-fronted pop-punk rockers are opening for Swift from May through August this year. This may come as a bit of a surprise to some fans considering that the group mounted a successful arena tour of their own in 2023.

That tour came on the heels of Paramore’s 2022 reunion; Prior to that, the band had been on a five-year hiatus.

For fans who want to check out their latest, their 2023 album “This Is Why” can be heard  here .

Huge stars on tour in 2024

Although it will cost an arm and a leg (sometimes more!) to see Swift live this year, there are much more affordable — likely stateside — concerts you can attend this year.

Here are just five of our favorite artists you won’t want to miss live.

•  Olivia Rodrigo

•  Kacey Musgraves

•  Sabrina Carpenter

•  Gracie Abrams

•  Billie Eilish
