The Academy Is… Set for ‘Almost Here’ 20th Anniversary U.S. Tour

After some teasing and speculation, The Academy Is… announced their return earlier this year with the “Almost Here 20th Anniversary Tour.” Fans can expect a high-energy set built around the songs that defined the mid-2000s, performed with the intensity and emotion that made the debut record a cult classic. The show blends past and present, weaving in refreshed arrangements, new creative elements, and glimpses of what the band is creating next.

The 14-date tour began last week in Columbus, OH, and will continue to make its way across the United States this winter to celebrate the pop-punk icons’ seminal debut album. The tour is set to visit select cities, including Boston, Brooklyn, Los Angeles and more, before concluding on December 21st in Santa Ana, CA. The band appeared at Riot Fest in Chicago, IL, in September to play Almost Here in full.

The response has been overwhelming, with many markets selling out instantly and demand continuing to climb. The band is already planning a second leg to meet the momentum, marking this as one of their most anticipated touring moments in years.
