Aussie metalcore legends Parkway Drive are hitting the road for a special run of shows performing two of their most revered releases.
This August, the Byron Bay outfit will perform in five cities across the nation, performing 2005’s Killing With A Smile on one night, followed by 2007’s Horizons the following night, along with a selection of the band’s biggest hits.
Parkway Drive frontman Winston McCall says of the tour, “This idea kicked off when we started working on the KWAS (Killing With A Smile) medley for our last tour. Revisiting Killing With A Smile with a fresh perspective lit a spark that remained after we finished up, so we figured rather than let the spark die, let’s take it and create something special.
“For all the people who have waited to hear these songs live again, for all the people that never got the chance to see these two albums on stage, for ourselves reconnecting with the core energy at the heart of this band, this tour is for all of us. Some of these songs haven't been played live in over a decade, some have never been played at all. You wanted it, now you got it, so let’s make this moment worth the wait.”
The tour will kick off at Perth’s Metro City on Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 August, before heading to Adelaide’s Hindley Street Music Hall on Tuesday 4 and Wednesday 5 August, the Forum in Melbourne on Sunday 9 and Monday 10 August, Sydney’s Enmore Theatre on Wednesday 12 and Thursday 13 August, and will conclude at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on Saturday 15 and Sunday 16 August.
Tickets for all shows go on sale at 12pm on Thursday 25 June via livenation.com.au.
Across more than two decades, Parkway Drive have established themselves as one of Australia’s greatest exports.
Renowned for their explosive live performances, Parkway Drive have played the world’s biggest festivals and shared stages with the likes of Metallica, Lamb of God, Slipknot and more.
2024 saw Parkway celebrate their 20th anniversary with a huge tour, followed by the band’s record-breaking 2025 performance with a full symphony orchestra at the iconic Sydney Opera House and a massive European arena tour.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see them live in these intimate venues this August.
Catch Parkway Drive performing Killing With A Smile on Tuesday 4 August and Horizons on Wednesday 5 August at Hindley Street Music Hall. Ticketing information is available at livenation.com.au.
