Cyndi Lauper's Farewell Tour Will Come to Toronto and Vancouver This Summer
The final leg of the pop icon's 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' tour will see her play 25 North American Dates. Aqua, Three Days Grace, and Neil Young have all added Canadian dates too.
Cyndi Lauper
Cyndi Lauper will be bringing the fun to Toronto and Vancouver this summer.
The '80s pop icon is heading out on the final leg of her 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun' tour for 25 North American dates. She'll play Toronto's Budweiser Stage on July 27 and Vancouver's Rogers Arena on August 21.
Billed as her final major tour — and her first headlining tour in a decade — it saw her sell out Madison Square Garden last fall, bringing joy back to the venue and ridding it of "bad energy" after a Trump rally, as Billboard's Joe Lynch wrote. Lauper will head to Australia and Japan in April before bringing the tour back home in July and August.
The tour is raising money for the Tides Foundation's Girls Just Want to Have Fundamental Human Rights Fund, with $150,000 raised so far. Lauper was also recently nominated for the 2025 class of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, giving her plenty to celebrate on the road.
Tickets go on sale March 14 at 10 A.M. Find more Canadian concert announcements below.

Three Days Grace and Volbeat
Another Danish act are touring Canada this year — rock band Volbeat will hit the road with homegrown heroes Three Days Grace in June. The bands will perform 10 Canadian dates together, from Vancouver to Ottawa, celebrating Three Days Grace's reunion with their lead singer, Adam Gontier, who returned to the band in 2024. Their first single with Gontier back, "Mayday," sits atop the Canadian Mainstream Rock airplay chart, indicating there's definitely appetite for a live setting.
