Following the announcement of two unique one night only arena shows in New York and Los Angeles, multi-platinum headliners and famed heavy metal rock group Avenged Sevenfold have launched an extensive Life is But A Dream…North American Tour featuring support from Alexisonfire. Produced by Live Nation, the first leg includes thirteen cities across the U.S. and Canada and features an appearance in Ottawa at Canadian Tire Centre on Monday, July 24.
Tickets can be purchased by visiting ticketmaster.ca or canadiantirecentre.com and will be available to the general public on Thursday, March 30, at 10 a.m.
The announcement of leg one is just one piece of recent exciting news for the band as they also just released their first single in seven years, Nobody and revealed their new album Life is But A Dream…, set to debut on June 2 via Warner Records.
Deathbats Club members can request tickets first from now through Tuesday, March 28 at 3 p.m. using Ticketmaster’s new Token-Gated Sales platform at avengedsevenfold.io/. Deathbats Club is a collection of 10,000 unique Deathbat NFT’s made popular by Avenged Sevenfold, flying around the Ethereum blockchain. A Deathbat is a membership card into the club and offers many perks and access to events that will take place in the “metaverse” and in real life.
During that window, fans will submit their request for tickets and, after the request period closes, they will receive a confirmation from Ticketmaster if tickets matching their preferences have been secured. This process gives exclusive access to ticket locations that have been reserved for the Deathbats Club community. For more information on the Token-Gated Sales platform see here.

About Alexisonfire
Alexisonfire rose up out of the Southern Ontario underground in late 2001 to become one of the most successful indie bands to come out of Canada. The band has sold over one million records and released five hugely successful studio albums, with four achieving certification: Alexisonfire (2002), Watch Out (2004), Crisis (2006) and Old Crows / Young Cardinals (2009). Crisis debuted at No. 1 on the Top 200 Soundscan (Canada), and Old Crows / Young Cardinals debuted at No. 2, and charted at No. 9 on the U.S. Billboard Independent Album chart. Watch Out helped garner a “New Group of the Year” JUNO in 2004. The band has performed to hundreds of thousands of fans on iconic stages worldwide, and graced notable music magazine covers internationally. Their long-anticipated and first full-length album in over 13 years, Otherness, was released earlier this year to international acclaim and took home “Rock Album of The Year” at the 2023 JUNO Awards.
