All Your Friends Fest Returns June 28-29, 2025 with Avril Lavigne And More!

Canadian music fans, get ready! Over two decades after her breakout hit Complicated topped the charts, Avril Lavigne is set to bring her signature pop-punk energy to the main stage at Burl’s Creek Event Grounds this summer.

Announced today as the first headliner for the 2025 All Your Friends Fest, Lavigne will perform during the two-day event happening June 28 and 29. Sharing the stage with her on Sunday night will be Montreal’s Juno-winning pop-rock band, Simple Plan.

“I can’t wait to play All Your Friends Fest at Burl’s Creek. It’s going to be a blast playing with so many of my friends at a festival so close to home, and I hope to see you all there,” Lavigne shared in a news release.

The rest of the lineup for the 2025 festival is still under wraps, but last year’s roster featured major names like Fall Out Boy, Billy Talent, Jimmy Eat World, and The All-American Rejects, hinting at another stellar list of performers this year.

Eva Dunford, co-founder of Republic Live, the organization behind the festival, expressed her excitement for the event’s return: “We are beyond excited to have All Your Friends Fest return to Burl’s Creek and bring fans together for an incredible Canada Day weekend of music and celebration. We are thrilled to have Canadian icon and global pop-punk superstar Avril Lavigne headline our Sunday night, kicking off the first weekend of summer in unforgettable style. With amazing performances, great vibes, and memories to last a lifetime, this edition of All Your Friends Fest promises to be one for the books.”

Taking place at Canada’s largest outdoor event venue, Burl’s Creek spans nearly 600 acres, with a capacity for more than 100,000 attendees and 45,000 campers. Last year’s festival attracted over 10,000 fans on its opening day, and organizers are committed to delivering another “unforgettable weekend of music” just in time to kick off Canada Day celebrations.
