Due to overwhelming demand and the call from fans for another date in the UK, Papa Roach has announced a show at the Motorpoint Arena Nottingham on February 8th, adding to their first-ever headline date at London’s OVO Arena Wembley, on February 7th, 2025 (which is now on very low tickets). The band, thriving over 25 years into their career, will be bringing their biggest-ever production and taking fans on a deep journey through their vast music catalogue, including a celebration of the 25th anniversary of their iconic breakthrough album Infest.

Wage War will be special guests for the two dates, whose album Stigma will get a physical release on September 6th via Fearless Records. General sale tickets are available on September 6th at 10 a.m.BST.

Frontman Jacoby Shaddix commented:

“We are blown away by the response for Rise Of The Roach tour. Wage War are amazing and we can’t wait to get back on tour. Nottingham is going to be lit on a Saturday night!”

Papa Roach previously announced that they would be partnering with the suicide prevention charity Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), which is fighting to reduce the devastating impact of suicide in the UK. There will be a £1 donation from every ticket.

CEO Simon Gunning said:

“We’re incredibly honoured that Papa Roach has selected CALM for their global campaign for “Leave A Light On (Talk Away The Dark)”. CALM has a long history of working with the music industry and we’re thrilled that the band is initiating their mission in the UK. We know how passionate they have been throughout their career about mental health – and the fact they’re donating proceeds from their ticket sales from their Wembley and Nottingham shows to our life-saving work means we’ll be able to help even more people struggling with life.”

Meanwhile, the band teamed up with Carrie Underwood when the country superstar joined them for an updated version of their hit single “Leave A Light On (Talk Away The Dark).” The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) will receive royalties generated from both artists from the song in perpetuity. The track has already picked up over 53.8 Million streams worldwide and gave Carrie Underwood a No 1 on charts she’d never conquered before.

“Leave a Light On (Talk Away The Dark)” is taken from Papa Roach’s 2022 album, Ego Trip, which was released to widespread positive reviews.
