Here is this week's Nielsen Market Watch report which features Canadian music stats for the current week and YTD with comparisons to last year. This chart is published every Tuesday. The abbreviation "TEA" is a term used to describe the sale of music downloads or singles. A track equivalent album is equal to 10 tracks, or 10 songs.
The Canadian rockers are bringing their new global trek to arenas in Montreal, Hamilton, Toronto, Saskatoon, Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver in March and April 2027, in support of their forthcoming album Everything Under the Sun, out Oct. 30.
Nickelback are hitting the road worldwide, and Canada is getting special treatment.
The Canadian rockers are gearing up to drop their new album Everything Under the Sun at the tail end of October (Oct. 30), and they're already following it up with a massive global tour in 2027. The Everything Under the Sun tour includes a staggering 62 dates that run nonstop from February until July across their native Canada, the U.S., Mexico and Europe, before resuming and wrapping up in Australia in October 2027.
Joined by the English rock outfit Don Bronco as their opening act, the Alberta-born band will play seven Canadian cities throughout March and April 2027, kicking off with Montreal's Bell Centre on March 12 and going on to play Hamilton's TD Coliseum (March 20), Toronto's Scotiabank Arena (March 21), Saskatoon's SaskTel Centre (April 2), Edmonton's Rogers Place (April 3), Calgary's Scotiabank Saddledome (April 6) and Vancouver's Rogers Arena (April 9).
Nickelback continue to create major Canadian moments after more than two decades of success in Canada and internationally, having recently topped the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart in the U.S. with their song "Rattle the Cage," their first No. 1 on the chart in 12 years. The song reached similar heights in Canada, peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Canada Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, where it currently sits at No. 3 on this week's chart (dated Oct. 10). They earned another placement on the chart this year with "Bones for the Crows," which reached No. 1 after serving as WWE's official theme song for WrestleMania 42. The rock group famously ruled the charts in the 2000s, earning eight No. 1s on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart in the U.S. between 2001 and 2014 with "How You Remind Me," "Figured You Out," "Animals" and more.
As the group racks up radio hits, the tour marks their first proper headline tour in four years, since their illustrious year in 2023, during which the group embarked on their Get Rollin' tour to support their 2022 album of the same name, which reached No. 4 on the Billboard Canadian Albums Chart. They played six shows in Canada and were also inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame at the 2023 Juno Awards, a few months before hitting the road.
Nickelback returned to Canada the following year for a slew of festival dates across their home country, including Coast City Country Festival in Vancouver, Ottawa Bluesfest, Rock the Park in London and the closing set at the Calgary Stampede. Three years removed from their festival run, the band is beginning a new chapter backed by two major radio hits, a new album and one of their most ambitious treks to date.
A presale will take place on Oct. 13 followed by a general sale on Oct. 16, both at 10 am local time. Check out the full list of cities below, as well as the list of Canadian dates.
