Good Charlotte Announce 2026 Australian Tour with Yellowcard and Kisschasy

Pop punk icons Good Charlotte are officially heading back to Australia in February 2026, marking their first shows down under in eight years as part of their massive Motel Du Cap World Tour. Presented by Untitled Group, the tour celebrates the band’s upcoming eighth studio album, Motel Du Cap, and will bring their legendary anthems and brand-new material to some of Australia’s biggest stages.

Good Charlotte, led by Joel and Benji Madden alongside Paul Thomas and Billy Martin, have sold millions of records worldwide and left an undeniable mark on alternative music. Australian fans can expect a high-energy set packed with hits like Lifestyles of the Rich & the Famous, The Anthem, and I Just Wanna Live, along with fresh tracks from Motel Du Cap, a record that channels the raw emotion and spirit of their early years.
