2025 marks the 30th anniversary of Everclear’s beloved second album, Sparkle And Fade. And this November and December, the American rockers will return to Australia in celebration of the album’s birthday.

Fans can access Spotify and Bandsintown pre-sale tickets on Wednesday, 30 July, at 9 am AEST. The password for the Spotify pre-sale is SPARKLE, while the Bandsintown password is FADE30. The general sale begins on Thursday, 31 July, at 9 am AEST. You can find more ticketing information on the Everclear website.

Sparkle And Fade was not the first album I had made, but it was the album I had wanted to make my whole life. It changed everything for me and Everclear,” frontman, founder and guitarist Art Alexakis said.

“Because of its success and lasting impact, this band has survived and prospered for three decades, and this tour, celebrating Sparkle And Fade, is another way of us saying ‘thank you’ to all of the incredible fans – old and new.

“We’re excited to bring this tour to Australia. In addition to all the hits and fan favourites, we’re going to pretty much play the whole album through the course of the show to commemorate this 30th anniversary. If you are a fan of this record, you do not want to miss this tour!”
