No Doubt/Paramore's Summer Tour Dates Announced

Cities and dates for No Doubt's highly-anticipated tour with Paramore have been unraveled on Wednesday, February 25. Being the ska-punk band's first tour since going on hiatus five years ago, the tour will start with the band's performance at the Bamboozle Festival in East Rutherford, New Jersey on May 3 and wrap up in Orange County, California, on August 1.

Visiting amphitheaters and arenas from coast to coast across North America, it will make 45 cities stops along the way and end with a two-night stand at Irvine, California's Verizon Wireless Amphitheater. The tour dates also include a performance at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, for Tiger Woods' annual Tiger Jam charity event on May 16. In addition to Paramore as the band's opening act, The Sounds, Janelle Monae and Bedouin Soundclash will serve as support on select dates.

Tickets for most dates will be made available on March 7. However, members of No Doubt's Tour Club will get the chance to buy them earlier in an exclusive 72-hour pre-sale, which starts Thursday, February 26 at 4 P.M. ET, while members of Paramore's fan club can get access to the tickets on May 2. The tour will also feature $10 and $25 tickets for shows at select amphitheaters throughout the tour.

In support of the tour, a unique No Doubt widget has been launched on February 25. It features the most up to date news and new exclusive video content direct from the band as well as a special contest. The behind-the-scene video will be posted every day from February 28 through March 6 as part of "Seven Days of No Doubt", while the contest with prizes, like meeting the band, limousine ride to the show and collectible No Doubt items, runs through March 17.
